An all-modern mansion is currently the most expensive abode in historic Charleston, South Carolina.
The 6,700-square-foot, 5 BR, 7BA complex — built in 2021 — hit the market earlier this month, with an asking price of $13.5 million, Mansion Global first reported.
“100 Murray Boulevard is truly special, as contemporary homes in the city’s historic neighborhood are incredibly rare,” agent Leslie Turner of Maison Real Estate, which holds the listing, told The Post.
“Older homes often come with a lot of ongoing maintenance, but, with this property, you’re surrounded by all the charm that Charleston is known for while having a stunning, turnkey residence,” Turner explained.
The mansion was built in 2021 by Akim Anastopoulo, a personal injury attorney. The legal eagle gained national notoriety in his role as the extreme sentencing judge on National Lampoon’s 2004 to 2009 courtroom spoof series, “An Eye for an Eye” — earning him a Daytime nomination Emmy.
In 2018, Anastopoulo paid $1.93 million for the lot — right across from a boardwalk overlooking the Ashley River — and tore down a 1960s-era mansion to build his dream home.
In addition to a prime location, the four-story main house offers an array of amenities—just on the lower level, there’s a gym, office, home theater and billiards room. The second floor contains the kitchen, living room and dining room, while the bedrooms occupy the top floors.
Also, there is a guest apartment with its own kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom behind the main house, accessible via elevator or patio.
In terms of alfresco features, there is a pool, deck, outdoor kitchen and lounge area.
“For entertaining, it’s great because you can open up the whole house and the pool is right there, as opposed to being down in the backyard, away from the house,” Turner commented to Mansion Global.
“Having a pool that’s really integrated into the design of the house is what’s most special about it.”
