Another beauty by Allison Ramsey Architects. You may notice that this is an unscreened porch in the image, which is stunning. I have a friend with a similar plan, screened side porch and it’s also stunning, not to mention very useful on buggy days, or days you prefer to be tucked away. Either way, this is one beautiful house! Let’s take a peek…

Architectural Splendor: 54 Tradd Street – Charleston, SC!
Isn’t this a stunning example of historic Charleston, SC architecture? The level of detail is astounding. The fact that this home remains so gorgeous nearly 285 years later is mind blowing. I love the aged patina, the black shutters, windows and doors and the beautiful window boxes that make this house pop!

We bought one of these pink flowers a few years ago to try and it was AH-mazing! Planted it in a pot in the spring and it bloomed until winter. I snipped blooms off, a few at a time, and put in small vases. It’s the happiest plant ever. Highly recommend!

I love a good traditional house plan that has the ability to fit into an older neighborhood. This is a duplex option that doesn’t necessarily look like a duplex. I like that the left side of the duplex is set more forward. It has a porch on the side. The right side is set back with a porch on the front. This is a great choice for families who want to live close but not necessarily in the same house. Let’s take a peek…

I truly feel that most of Allison Ramsey’s house plans would fit into established neighborhoods that already foster a sense of character and perhaps have been there for a while. I’m usually thinking about my neighborhood (and nearby neighborhoods) when I mention this. When I first saw this plan, even the interior with built in bookcases – it truly looks like an older home with all the charm. Let’s take a peek…

This photo was taken on a walk last week, downtown (Charleston, SC) – there are so many flowers blooming right now it will dazzle your mind, ha ha. It’s beautiful to see everything in bloom, the bees so busy, the scent from the jasmine is starting, oh… next the ligustrums which are exploding with small white blooms. It’s like the strongest scented candle in the very best way.

✝️ Happy Easter! 🐰
Morning Walk – Charleston, SC
It’s so refreshing to get out and walk somewhere different. We have a few different routes or places that we walk but every once in a while it’s like a mini vacation to drive a few miles away, park and get out and walk somewhere different. It opens your perspective and we see fresh ideas. Plants, flowers, etc.

With all the uncertainty going on in the world right now perhaps you’re considering a smaller house. If so, this is a fabulous plan with wonderful porches that makes the square footage feel like so much more (weather permitting of course). To have a screen porch off of the living area is like having a little piece of Heaven! No compromise here, this is a beauty, let’s take a peek…

One (of the many) things that I love about Allison Ramsey’s plans is the fact that they can fit into an existing neighborhood and blend seamlessly. This home can easily look as if it’s been there for a long time and maintained meticulously. It’s important (to me) when building in an older neighborhood. I think you will love this plan (along with fabulous porches on the front and back)! It’s fabulous, let’s take a peek…

Spring is magical everywhere in the world, but springtime in Charleston brings a special kind of beauty. The scents wafting through the air are magical. Charleston has many large live oak trees, in this area they have Spanish moss hanging from their stately limbs, they also have Resurrection fern growing on the large branches. Talk about magical…

This plant is such a joy I cannot even begin to express how much I absolutely adore it. We planted a few in pots last year – around this time, they bloomed all summer long! Literally you do nothing but make sure they don’t get too dry (especially in a pot). Give them a nice drink of water when they look thirsty and they’re good!

The sun is shining, the flowers are blooming the wisteria is giving off its heavenly scent. Life is good here in Charleston, SC. This really is the perfect time to be in Charleston. Soon the weather will heat up (exponentially) and the humidity will peak. So get out and enjoy it while you can…

There are such beautiful lines to this plan. This is another plan that could easily fit into an existing neighborhood as well as a newer neighborhood. It has style and charm, which is so important to me. It looks like a home that will stand the test of time and age beautifully.

It was officially spring yesterday a little after 5AM EST and I thought this was the perfect photo to share. I love this flower, it was stunning. (I took this photo, but this is not at my house) – I’m not sure of the name of it, but there were plenty and they were beautiful! Very springy! The weather is warming the flowers are blooming – it’s our most beautiful season.
