About this property
Charming family-friendly casita 5 min to downtown, 15 min to beach
Arguably the most convenient location in Charleston! This vibrant 1970’s bungalow is just 5 minutes from downtown and 8 miles from Folly Beach. Walking distance to a shopping center with grocery store, restaurants, bars, coffee shop, gas station, and bank! The home offers 2 queen bedrooms and a room with a twin XL over queen bunk bed, great for kids and comfortable for adults, so everyone has a cozy spot. The fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with tub, and screen porch provide all the comforts of home + local artwork, noteworthy books, and eclectic trinkets from around the world. The fenced-in backyard is perfect for kids to play safely.
The convenience of this location can’t be beat: 2 miles to MUSC, 2.8 miles to King Street shopping, and 8 miles to Folly Beach, 1.3 miles to local music venue, the Charleston Pour House, 6 miles to Johns Island.
The house is located on a quiet street, local traffic only. Tons of tiny frogs in the yard. Catching them makes for great entertainment for kids (and adults!)
Note: This home is a duplex, my mother lives next door with her friendly blue heeler named Blue —he loves kids and might ask to join in the fun, though the yards are securely separated.
Amenities:
- Parking: Private driveway for 3 cars (or a boat!), plus additional street parking.
- Entertainment: Cornhole, family board games, kid games, toy basket, pack'n play with crib sheet, and an extra TV in the bunk room for movie nights.
- Outdoor: Fenced-in backyard for kids and pets, and a relaxing screen porch.
- Work & Connectivity: Fast WiFi and a desk in the front bedroom, perfect for a work-cation.
- Kitchen: Fully equipped with all the essentials for cooking at home.
- Laundry: Washer and dryer available for your convenience.
- Bonus: Discounted spa services next door with a professional massage therapist.
