Bart Beasley Custom Builders: Longborough - Charleston Peninsula

Longborough is one of Charleston's most recent neighborhoods, but you'd never be able to guess so by looking at the gorgeous neo-classical homes that comprise it. The neighborhood offers a Charleston experience unlike what you'd find in the lower peninsula. The flow of time is slower, there's less hustle and bustle, and many of the homes offer a serene overlook of the serene Ashley River. Bart Beasley and Beasley Custom Builders have had the pleasure of working on a number of homes in this truly distinct neighborhood. Here's a look at some of them:
