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.



    Interaction with Guests:

    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.

We enjoyed the quaint neighborhood while within walking distance to the city center. Local cafes etc were perfect. 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.

Very nice place in a great location

The property was as described and met our expectations. Very nice inside and out and within walking distance to just about everything. Food (literally on site and next door), coffee, stores, and a few small parks. You can't do much better in my opinion.

Great place in downtown Charleston!

We were in town for a wedding, this was the perfect place to stay for access to great restaurants, coffee shops, and just touring Charleston. Loved the historic features of the beautiful home! The kitchen was small but beautifully designed and had everything we needed. My husband loved the extra large coffee mugs!!

Fantastic location + historic property = amazing girls weekend!

The property was even better than the photos! Clean, spacious, welcoming, and warm. The deck/piazzas were amazing for lounging in the morning. Each bedroom has its own flair and we loved learning about the history of the property. Steps away from great shops and food. Cannot recommend this place and location enough!

Great spot near king street. Good bagel spot nearby. Owners provided great coffee and tea as well as board games. We enjoyed breakfast on the porch. Met one of the owners who was delightful and let us tour the other upstairs unit. Clearly they have put a lot of sweat equity in this place!

Thanksgiving in Charleston

Mom/Dad came down to host Thanksgiving in Charleston for our Clemson son (and friend). This VRBO was perfect for the trip. Kitchen was top shelf for pulling out a Thanksgiving Meal. Location allows us to walk to almost everything. Can't over state the time sitting on the second floor porch with coffee watching the world go by. Amazing fine touches done on this rennovation.

Wonderful property - perfect for a long weekend

We flew down to Charleston for a girls weekend. This VRBO caught our attention right from the start because of the gorgeous pictures. The location did not disappoint! It was a lovely property in a great location - close enough to everything we wanted to see, but in a residential area that was quiet and safe. We had a blast. We definitely felt pampered. Would love to come again, and stay here! The attention to detail was wonderful, and we enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Thank you! Highly recommend!

Amazing!

Better than expected, pictures do not do it justice. Bedrooms are large, with comfy beds. Cute bathrooms with era type decor. Kitchen well stocked and super cute! The Southern porch is the real winner! Large, comfy and lamp lit for a cozy ambiance. The one note is the narrow spiral staircase to enter the residence. For 3 older women with suitcases, it took a team effort. Loved it!

Relaxing close to everything

The Charlestonian is in a great location within walking distance of some great dining and shops. The apartment has a nice vibe with interesting and unique design choices. The beds were very comfortable with high end linens. Both the front veranda and back porch are very comfortable with teak furniture and accessories. The kitchen is stocked with all the basic cookware and utensils to prepare meals if you choose to stay in and cook. Also, having a washer and dryer is a huge plus. We had a great week at Charleston. I would recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to experience downtown Charleston.

Incredible VRBO Experience - A Truly Amazing Stay!

I recently had the most incredible stay at this VRBO property, and I cannot say enough good things about it! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a stunning property that exceeded all our expectations. The location was perfect. The house itself was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail was evident in every corner, and it was clear that the hosts had put a lot of thought into making our experience unforgettable. One of the highlights of our stay was the outdoor space - the outdoor porches were amazing overlooking the Charleston homes. The hosts were exceptional - friendly, responsive, and genuinely committed to ensuring that we had a memorable stay. Their recommendations for local activities and dining were spot on, and added an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. Overall, our experience at this VRBO property was nothing short of amazing. It was the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and serenity, and I cannot wait to return. If you're looking for a truly unforgettable getaway, look no further.
