128 Bull Street, Charleston, SC 29401

Set on high ground in Harleston Village, one of Charleston's most storied neighborhoods, the Joseph Bennett House (Thomas Grange Simons House) has stood since circa 1814. This classic Charleston double house pairs more than two centuries of history with a layout that works for the way people live today.Soaring ceilings across the principal rooms set this house apart, giving it a sense of scale you feel the moment you walk in.

A gracious foyer and central stair hall open to a formal dining room and formal living room, each anchored by a grand fireplace framed in detailed millwork. Original heart pine floors, intricate moldings, and Adamesque detailing carry through the home.The eat-in kitchen is built around a large island.

At the rear, symmetrical piazzas overlook a generous private yard, a quiet, walled-off world of its own in the heart of downtown. Mature plantings frame a low-maintenance turf lawn, pool, and hot tub, with ample storage. The second floor opens to a sunny roof terrace and holds the primary suite and a second large bedroom, each with its own fireplace and updated bath, joined by a spacious sitting area.

The third floor adds two more bedrooms and a recently renovated full bath. The ground floor is a separate two-bedroom, one-bath residence with an office, full of its own character, with exposed beams and a commanding original brick fireplace. It is currently leased as an income-producing rental, and its 1,284 square feet are not included in the main home's square footage.
