Heart of downtown, Updated, Porch & Ideal for 2024

Summary:
This welcoming 3-bedroom, 3-bath apartment offers visitors convenient access to all the city has to offer. Located on the 1st floor of a historic Charleston single home built in the late 1800s, and set back from the street with off-street parking, the rental overlooks candy-colored historic homes that dot the neighborhood and provides a true Charleston experience for guests. Walkable to MUSC, CofC, King Street’s most popular retail and restaurants, & more.

The Space:
Spread out on your private porch. No shared surfaces and spaces, a lovely porch and free parking. The apartment recently underwent a full renovation. Measuring at 1,000 square feet, the apartment offers three bedrooms each featuring premium bedding and its own full bathroom with shower. Thoughtful care has been put into crafting a clean and efficient space that offers all of the amenities of a boutique hotel (bath products, high-end towels and linens, hair dryers, iron, wi-fi, premium TV channels, etc.) with the added convenience of a full, chef-ready kitchen, washer/dryer, and a classic Charleston single-style porch for enjoying the nearly year-round comfortable temperatures Charleston offers its visitors. The unit features an outdoor picnic table on the porch offering guests another space to visit or dine al fresco. The property allows for one complimentary off-street parking space with additional parking available at $20/day. This apartment is on the first floor of the three-story property. The home features two additional 3 BR/3 BA rentals - one, a garden level apartment, and the other on the top floor - that can be rented in conjunction with this apartment for larger groups. Please inquire if interested!

Guest Access:
All spaces shown in the photos.

The Neighborhood:
Visitors can shop for tailored menswear at Indigo & Cotton located directly next door and across from the apartment; indulge in the city’s most charming bakery – Sugar Bakeshop - located just across the street from the rental. Many of the city’s most notable eateries are located in the Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighborhood, or an easy walk from the rental. In a recent Thrillist article on where to eat in and around Charleston now – 11 of the 29 Charleston eateries listed are in easy walking distance to the home (the rest, an easy car or cab ride away): O-Ku, Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit, Chez Nous, The Darling Oyster Bar, The Grocery, Indaco, The Ordinary, Xiao Bao Biscuit, Warehouse, or Leon's Oysters.

Getting Around:
We are only 3 blocks from Upper King Street, so most guests prefer to walk and explore the city. The beach is 15 minutes away by car. There is also a free shuttle offered by the city that runs along King Street (3 blocks away) to popular stops. Bike rentals are available nearby or you might enjoy trying a pedicab taxi. We offer free parking on site or in the lot we manage across the street.

Other Things to Note:
This space is ideal in the time of COVID. There are no shared surfaces or spaces. We are a family owned and operated business and care very much for our guests experience and safety. We are available to help with recommendations and planning.

Interaction with Guests:
We like to greet guests to make the check in easier, provide directions on parking, etc., but we can also leave a key, if guests prefer. Our office is across the street and we are available as needed. We can be reached at (843)277-0272.

We loved this beautiful 3-bedroom rental. Very convenient to shops and restaurants. Communication was excellent, before and during our stay. We locked ourselves out one afternoon and George was there almost immediately to let us in. Beds were very comfortable! Would definitely rent again!

First time in Charleston for girls trip!
We loved everything about our stay here. The place is well appointed, comfortable and we loved the decor! The location is perfect! Restaurants super close by including Ladels for lunch and Southside for dinner- the aroma coming from Southside was amazing! Make sure to grab a bagel at Holey City and a cupcake from Sugar- just across the street. George was great at communication and check-in! We will be back! ❤️

Beautiful accomedations but some dissapointment
Liked the accomedations,nice separate bedrooms and showers. Very clean. But very dissapointed that parking was not outfront of our cottage. My son had to go across the street behind a delapited home and park. I am handicapped and could not have done it without my son. There was no hotwater in bathroom basins. Also experienced an annoying beeping sound that was not corrected all day and finally had to call Management to fix the problem as i didnt want it going on all night.

The perfect girls getaway
We had a great time here, we had 5 girls and the 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms was perfect for us. We loved the living space and the newly added speaker that we could easily Bluetooth our phones too. It was only a short walk to King's street so we were able to pop to downtown anytime we liked. Everyone was so friendly, I would recommend to anyone looking for a clean, spacious place to stay with a great location!

Charming Charleston
We appreciated the location of the property. The close access to King Street made it easy to walk and we did a lot of walking! We didn't have a car, but having a parking spot in front of the property is amazing and valuable in a city with so much tight on street parking. The home has been lovingly restored. One suggestion is to have some place to put toiletries. A pedestal sink is lovely, but when women are trying to get ready for a wedding it made it challenging to have to put your makeup on the floor. There were 5 of us in the house and the walls are thick, noise did not carry. One other thought is more comfortable seating and space for six to sit since there are three bedrooms. Keep in mind, this does not prevent us from giving the place five stars, just suggestions from some well worn travelers! Thanks for letting us check in early.

Charleston ‘23
Great location! Walked to King St and even back from dinner on Queen St! Appreciated having coffee provided at the property. Only downside with being on the first floor was staying below a group with small children running about on the second floor. However, we we were not at ‘home base’ often so it wasn’t too much of an issue. Overall, a wonderful stay!

Great location and comfortable beds. Very clean and great service. Note, this was the lower unit and you can hear the upstairs guests walking around, but it was not a big deal. The owner provides sleep noise machines which helped. The restaurant in front of the unit is very good as well.

Comfortable, convenient, and well run
This was our second time staying at one of this owner’s properties. His rental units are nicely decorated and full of all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. They’re also convenient to King Street and a variety of excellent restaurants. Communication from the owner is always great. Overall, a great option in the Cannonborough area, which is where many of the short-term rentals are located in Charleston.
