About this property

3BR Family Retreat | EV Charging, Porch & Parking | Walk to MUSC | Charleston

Summary:

Live like a local in this show-stopping three queen bedroom, two bath apartment located in downtown Charleston. Housed in The Charlestonian on the second floor, this suite offers private entrance, patio and porch, kitchen, living area, laundry, and complimentary parking for one car. Incredible for walking to CofC, MUSC, and world-renowned shopping and dining on King St. and surrounding historic downtown.



The Space:

The floorplan is ideal for socializing with an open concept living room and eat-in kitchen on one end and the three bedrooms on the opposite end. The living room and kitchen look out on Cannon street, one of Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighborhood’s most vibrant streets, home to many popular stores and restaurants all just steps from the suite.

Off of this living room/kitchen area is a classic Charleston porch, offering guests an outdoor area to visit and people watch.

All three bedrooms boast comfortable queen beds with plush bedding. Two of the three bedrooms feature full ensuite bathrooms.



*Please note this rental is located on the second floor and only accessible by (spiral staircase!) Absolutely no parties or late-night noise will be tolerated.



Operating Permit: OP2026-07476



Guest Access:

This suite has access to the large front porch with exclusive, dedicated seating, a private rear porch, and patio with Green Egg charcoal grill, complementary charcoal. Complimentary parking for one vehicle.



The Neighborhood:

Visitors can enjoy convenient dining options directly next door at Southbound and Ladles Soup across from the apartment. The home is set in Cannonborough, an inviting downtown area blending historic and stylish residential homes. It’s steps away from the College of Charleston, as well as Charleston's finest restaurants and shopping.



Getting Around:

We offer free parking on-site. 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.



Other Things to Note:

We are three blocks from King Street, right in the middle of all Charlestonian activity. Incredible restaurants such as Southbound, Verns, 167 Raw, Malagon, Indaco, and Azur. Great places to have drinks are even closer at places like Felix, Stars, Babas, and Prohibition. There are also great niche restaurants closer than King Street, such as coastal Italian at Allora or creative Indian at Rivayat. If you want the full Charleston experience, a walking tour or carriage tour is a must. If you have sea legs and are aiming for total immersion into history, the steamboat runs to Ft. Sumter daily and you can land your two feet exactly where the Civil War started.

We are available for questions and we're glad to assist in any way we can.

This place was wonderful. Comfortable beds, beautiful morning light filled kitchen, great outdoor space, easy parking, responsive/attentive hosts. My only complaint is the shared bathroom is very tight with the shower door and entry door banging into each other if you are not careful, and the shower head is very high straight overhead.

The Co-op, Allora, the Wine Bar, Southbound, Ladels, among others were perfect!We broke a glass on the porch and owners cleaned it up quickly and without judgment. lol. Will book again.
