Wedding Chapel, Ashley Ave., Charleston, S.C. |
When I was selling my house downtown I checked out every property on my regular walking routes that was for sale. This little wedding chapel on Ashley Avenue was. I imagined moving in and turning it into a home. It had a relatively large parking lot so I pictured renting out parking spots to help pay for it all. Luckily it was already under contract or I might have done it. I even imagined living in the attic and renting out the bottom for weddings. Heheh.
Now I see someone is planning to use it for a home. Four or five homes in fact. The sign called it "The Chapel Estates" and advertises the property as condos. They are building them in my parking lot.
Oh, I wish you had bought it! Living upstairs sounds like it would be terrific. I wonder about the price of those finished units. Put it on your calendar to record its progress and finished product. Would love to follow that.
ReplyDeleteIt would have been fun! I might have done it. I would have at least gone and looked at it is it hadn't already had a contract pending. I couldn't find a web site on the condos yet.
Deleteah, since you are not downtown, I'll report that you got to miss that 2 week period when the students and their parents pour into the city, block roadways, leave half rotten couches on the road, and then party for a week before classes actually get started.... sigh... good times.
ReplyDeleteOh I remember. And it always seems to rain the night they put the nasty stuff out there.
