This week in Under Contract, UrbanTurf takes a look at three homes that were recently featured and went under contract in under two weeks.

Two Weeks for a Mount Pleasant Victorian

This four-level Mount Pleasant home opens up into a dining space with two-level ceilings that measure about 20 feet. A living room is tucked away at the front of the house and features a wide bay window. The kitchen is updated with a five-burner gas range and an island that seats three. Upstairs, there is a small space that overlooks the dining area and the bedrooms are large, some with bay windows as well. The listing found a buyer in two weeks.
