About this property

Beautiful Art Villa in Historic Charleston, SC

Summary:

Set on the upper floor of a beautifully renovated 1885 Charleston single, this 2-bedroom suite feels like living in the city, not just visiting it. The space is bright and open with a mid-century modern feel, two queen bedrooms, two private baths, a full kitchen, and a private upstairs porch that's perfect for unwinding after a full day.



The Space:

Inside, you'll find a rotating gallery of work by local artists, a curated vinyl record collection, and thoughtful touches throughout. Coffee, tea. and bikes are all available. Smart lock entry and off-street parking are included.



Guest Access:

Private Smart Lock Entry



The Neighborhood:

You're in the heart of Cannonborough-Elliottborough, one of the peninsula's most walkable and genuinely local neighborhoods. Great restaurants, neighborhood bars, independent shops, and a local grocer are all just steps away.



Getting Around:

We suggest riding bikes or walking to get around the city but you get always call an Uber or Lyft if you prefer. Charleston is a skinny peninsula and can feel cramped driving and parking but that is an option as well. Parking in Residential areas is limited to 2 hours on weekdays but there are Parking lots and garages all over. If parking more than one car, explore your options.



Interaction with Guests:

We are available to answer questions and help guests as best we can. We enjoy guests who are self sufficient and adventurous. We are close by if needed but we stay out of the way.

The host was great! We generally breakfasts and some meals on property - so not having spatulas, and limited cookware made it challenging. We had limited towels as well. The shower floor was pretty slick when wet and it didn't drain very well (eventually did, but was slow). Be careful!

Hidden gem

If you are looking for a house that gives you a true feeling of the authentic Charleston experience, this is the house for you. Nestled on a tiny street in the middle of the city. There are plenty of places to eat, drink and see within walking distance. We had one issue when we arrived, i reached out to the owner and they had someone out to replace it immediately. They were very apologetic even though the issue was nothing they had control over. They were extremely quick with their responses and were only worried that my friends and I had the best vacation possible. I highly recommend.

This place was great. It is not super close to the center of the historic area of Charleston but what a wonderful surprise that it was such a lovely and food filled neighborhood. For reference, it took us about 30 minutes to get down to where the Slave Museum is and about 17 minutes to get to the visitors center walking briskly. We covered about 10 miles a day. You can drive or take the free trolly but we did not do that. It was quiet, comfortable, well appointed and safe. Would highly recommend.
