Historic Charleston Charm

Summary:
Located only 6 blocks from king street's exciting new restaurants and boutique shopping, this 1830's single style residence has been newly renovated with modern conveniences into a truly gorgeous Charleston vacation rental.

The Space:
This 1830's single style residence has high ceilings, gleaming heart pine floors, original mantled fireplaces help give our guests a true Charleston experience. This apartment is located on the second floor of the house. The bedrooms are set at either end of the apartment giving guest privacy for each other during their stay. The bathroom has just been fully renovated and features a tub with shower and tiled floors. The furnishings include a mix of antiques and modern furniture. Enjoy the afternoon breezes from the piazza. There is off street, secure parking.

Bedroom #1: Queen Bed
Bedroom #2: Queen Bed
Common Space: Air Mattress (per request)

Guest Access:
The apartment has a large piazza and off street parking. It is located only a block away from three popular restaurants, Xiao Bao Biscuit, Bistronomy By Nico and Fuel. Walk about 5 blocks and you will be on King Street with many of Charleston's favorite new restaurants and boutiques.

The Neighborhood:
The Elliotborough/Cannonborough district of downtown Charleston. With its friendly neighbors, cozy restaurants, and tree lined streets, our neighborhood will immerse you in Charleston’s classic charm. This house is perfect for a family or group seeking a fun, culinary and cultural vacation. Popular dining spots in the neighborhood include Xiao Bao Biscuit, Fuel, Porchetta Shop, Southbound, R Kitchen, Chubby Fish and many more! Our guests and neighbors also rave about Welton's Tiny Bakeshop and Kudu Coffee. We recommend going to either for a cup of locally-roasted coffee or their delicious cookies and cakes. The house is only a short walk from the very popular King Street where you will find a multitude of great shops – including antique shops, book stores and fashion boutiques – as well as endless buzzing restaurants and bars.

Getting Around:
You can walk almost everywhere - but should you want to rest your feet, there are many other options for getting around: Uber, Lyft, Charleston Bike Taxi, Charleston Rickshaw, Green Taxi or Yellow Cab.

The host made sure our stay was enjoyable by including thoughtful touches like toiletries, white noise machines in the bedrooms, and cute towel displays on each bed. The unit was full of the southern charm we were looking for.

Misrepresentation

The house from the outside was very shabby- paint peeling and poorly maintained stairs and railings. The furniture was extremely uncomfortable, with poor lighting. Beds were comfortable but rooms were sparingly furnished. For a very short term stay it was sufficient but we would never book this place again .

Perfect Accommodation

We walked everywhere!!! Great location, safe for our Schnauzer, home was as depicted. We will definitely return next year for our annual HHI visit! Access to beach was a 7 minute walk to what felt like, a private area. Thank you for allowing our visit.

Needs updating

Living area furniture was very uncomfortable and outdated. Bed mattress sunk in places. Needs seating in bedrooms and more appealing decor. Towel rack in bathroom is broken. Kitchen was fine. Very interesting old house - just needs to be more updated and comfortable inside

Good neighborhood spot

It is perfectly suited to Charleston. Were it anywhere else, the fact that a floor isn't level would be a bummer, but not here. It is charming and guaranteed old. The apartment was clean, bright, & provided everything we needed! We love walking, so staying here & walking the mile or so to explore the historic district, French quarter, and everything in between was great for us. Property management was friendly & responsive.

Charming and great location

Located in a quiet section of Charleston near the Charleston medical school. Plenty of space for a family of four. Walking distance to shops and cafes and minutes to all of the various hot spots in Charleston. Close to North Charleston and Mt. Pleasant as well. We would stay here again.

Historic but shabby

For the price, this property was below expectations. The photos made it look much more elegant. I realize this is a historic property, however the exterior looks dilapidated compared to the photo. The porch was leaning to the point it seemed dangerous. The couch had stains all over it (I put a sheet on it before sitting) and the bed mattresses were saggy and uncomfortable. It’s a shame these once elegant homes are being treated like cash cows for rental companies. The house overlooks the next door property (also shabby) whose back yard has been turned into a parking lot by the property company. That said, the neighborhood was fine and the rental company was responsive.

Lovely place

We really enjoyed our stay here. It is in a historic home, so be prepared for slanty floors but lots of character. Most everything we needed was there. Beds were super comfy. The only con was that it could use some better lighting. The location is great - in the middle of a fun, funky neighborhood. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the porch on a nice afternoon. I would definitely stay here again.

Daughter’s Senior Trip

This place was just what we were wanting when we were thinking of charm. The two bedrooms were spacious and the kitchen was fully stocked- the owners even supplied the coffee and filters too! There were also plenty of dishwasher pods to cleanup after we cooked dinner (we chose not to eat out at every meal to save money), as well as laundry pods. It was a trip we’ll never forget.

Clean and convenient location

Our rental was very clean and conveniently located with easy access to all of the Charleston hot spots. Property management had amazing communication as we were coming into town at the tail end of a hurricane and we wanted to make sure we could navigate any flooding to get to the property; happy to report we had zero issues thanks to us checking on the nearby streets for us.

Quirky historic Charleston single house

This is a very typical Charleston single house. Slanted floors and all. If you want the experience of that rather than all the comforts of home this a great little place with convenient off street parking for smaller vehicles. Communication with property manager was a bit clumsy. I had to write to request check in instructions and then didn’t receive the message indicating what they’d like us to do before checking out until after we had already left.

Perfect for us

We booked this spot last minute based on location and budget. As mentioned in other posts, it’s dated but worked well for us since we mostly just slept there. The beds were very comfortable and the linens were very nice. Communication with management was top notch and they were extremely helpful. I prefer to have cable but watching Netflix was nice. I do wish there were instructions for the tv. Parking was nice to have as well. We would stay here again!!
