Elevated Luxury Living In Historic Ansonborough Townhome

280 Meeting comprises seven luxury residences nestled in the exclusive Ansonborough neighborhood. These new construction residences are tucked between the rooftops of Charleston’s historic Peninsula and the vibrant new luxury residential block of Meeting Street. The site is being reimagined as seven private residences—five condos within a restored main building and two townhomes wrapped around a garden courtyard with a pool. The work is led by Bello | Garris Architects, whose practice on the Peninsula is known for a disciplined, quietly classical hand. The site sits a few blocks from Marion Square and the King Street retail corridor, closer still to the neighborhood cafes, galleries, and residential lanes that have always defined Charleston’s Peninsula. The gesture here is restraint: preserve the scale of the block, recess the new construction behind a stucco garden wall, and let daylight, ironwork, and historic nature of Ansonborough lead the design. The interior direction takes its cues from the historic fabric of Ansonborough—the quiet rhythm of bespoke trim and millwork, the patina of unlacquered brass, and the broad plan of a natural white-oak floor. The intent is rooms that age into the building rather than against it. Palettes lean warm and quiet—ivory and bone, dust and clay, within deep tannin accents. Floors are wide white-oak plank in a natural finish; walls carry bespoke trim and millwork; custom painted cabinetry and stained-oak built-ins throughout. Stones are honed rather than polished. Hardware is unlacquered brass in the main-building residences and polished nickel in the townhouse baths. Ten-to-eleven-foot ceiling heights throughout the residences. Exquisite taste coupled with pleasing design touches with the finest stones & wood surfaces combined with premium Thermador appliances speak to a modern home with vestiges of the historic patina of Downtown Charleston. The palette was chosen with care—rooted in deep history and traditions of one of Charleston’s oldest neighborhoods yet quietly attuned to how these residences will be lived in today. Amenities include a pool, fitness center with sauna, and both garage and surface parking. Construction is anticipated to begin in late 2026, with an expected delivery in the second quarter of 2028. Townhouse 140, located at the rear of the property, offers three thousand three hundred square feet of luxury living. This residence offers three bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms with an additional nine hundred square feet of outdoor space overlooking the pool. This three-level residence is equipped with an elevator for owner convenience; flex space can be used as an office, family room or guest suite. This townhouse also includes a dedicated assigned parking space on this property.
