Byrnes Downs is a 1940's brick cottage community just minutes away from downtown Charleston. It has deep roots in Charleston's WWII-era history, with the homes originally serving as rentals for the Charleston Naval Shipyard workers. Homes were later sold to veterans and the neighborhood quickly developed a reputation of its own as a preferred bedroom community. Today, Byrnes Downs sits along the West Ashley Greenway, an 8-mile-long biking and walking trail that connects the area to other neighborhoods, shopping, restaurants and grocery stores. The City of Charleston is set to link the greenway to the downtown peninsula with a newly approved pedestrian bridge spanning the Ashley River, ensuring continued access and further interest in the neighborhood for years to come. Do not miss your opportunity to own this amazing home in such a special location. Schedule your time to tour today!
