This stately South of Broad residence occupies a superb Church street location that is high and dry. The Julius L. Lee House, was built between 1877 and 1879.

The property has been completely restored to modern day standards, including plaster moldings throughout, mechanicals and the addition of an elevator shaft that provides elevator access from the garden to the second floor. Four beds, three full baths, walk in closets,
