BAKER HOUSE Baker House is one of historic downtown Charleston's most recognizable landmarks. It opened in 1912 as Charleston's first private hospital and first maternity hospital. In a time when most births still occurred at home, it provided a medical space where generations of Charlestonians were born before it moved off the peninsula in 1981. The building was converted to condominiums in 1984, a prominent example of adaptive reuse in the city. LOCATION Baker House is an ideal location for outdoor and fitness enthusiasts. It sits directly across from Colonial Lake, providing access to its park, gardens, and walking/jogging paths.. Baker House is an easy walk to the Battery and all the best downtown Charleston has to offer. In the same block, you can find shops and restaurants in The Jasper. Harleston Village is one of the most walkable areas of the city. Whether you are looking for a primary residence, a lock-and-leave second home, or an investment property, 55 Ashley Avenue 23 provides the perfect combination of history, charm, and convenience.
