About this property
M2 at Saint Philip Square, One Block to King, Cozy Two Story Stay, Garden Views
Welcome to Saint Philip Square, an award-winning collection of historic homes that spans nearly one city block of downtown Charleston-The Emma McCall House at 174 Unit #2 St. Philip St. This 3-bed, 3-bath two level apartment has private porches on both levels and is located just one block from King Street. Recognized with five Carolopolis Awards and the SC Governor’s Award for Historic Restoration, this retreat is perfect for families or groups seeking an authentic Charleston experience.
Bedroom 1 – King bed, exposed original ceiling beams, large windows offering natural light.
Bedroom 2 – Queen bed, ensuite bath, exposed beams, furnished with historic charm.
Bedroom 3 – King bed, ensuite bath, cathedral ceiling, exposed beams, dressing/writing table.
Bathroom 1 - Marble and tile shower, separate handheld shower, glass shower door.
Bathroom 2 - Ensuite bath, glass door, rain shower head, and separate handheld shower.
Bathroom 3 - Ensuite bath with bathtub and shower.
Living Room – Bright and open with plush seating, comfy sofa, flat-screen TV, elegant historic accents.
Kitchen – Fully stocked, combination Keurig pod / drip coffee maker, all the small gadgets.
- Landscaped parking for 1 vehicle.
This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a renovated dependency or a newly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it situated on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old hardwood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows and doors exude a special warmth, character, and charm that is very difficult to achieve in new construction. The exterior copper roof and guttering provide additional warmth and character. It`s the real deal!
*If needing early check-in or late check-out please DO NOT ask until the day before check-in at earliest due possible last minute rentals. If you absolutely NEED it, I would suggest renting the night prior*
*Pet Policy: Only Small Pets under 25 pounds (maximum of 2) allowed with prior written approval ($200 non-refundable fee per pet).Must have authorization prior to reservation.*
Saint Philip Square is an award-winning collection of 6 historic buildings meticulously curated to enhance your stay in Charleston. “M2” is one of seventeen unique rentals. The grounds feature outdoor garden areas with fountains, dining areas, fire pits and covered barbecues. In the evenings, this oasis sparkles with outdoor lighting, making it the perfect place for nightcaps after a day of exploring.

About the host
Hosted by Jamie Molony
Bill and Jacquelin are lifelong Charlestonians who have raised our family in Charleston. We are passionate about everything "Charleston"--history, culture, architecture. We spent 20 years on our sailboat in Europe, staying in VRBO places whenever we could. While we love Europe, we feel Charleston gives you the best European experience in America but also offers the best of modern American life. We bought the properties at SaintPhilipSquare in 1996 and began converting them to short term rental in 2010 because we believe these historic properties give visitors the best opportunity to live like a Charlestonian. We love the VRBO concept and always stay in VRBO properties when we travel.
Jamie, our capable manager for over 25 years, is the "magic" of SaintPhilipSquare as you will find from the reviews.
