Renovated 1850s Mansion in Downtown

Summary:
Live like a local in this show-stopping three bedroom, two bath apartment located in downtown Charleston. Housed in an historic home dating to 1851, every detail of the rental was fully renovated in 2017 to feature antique heart pine flooring, tongue and groove walls, European hardware dating to the original period of the home, a fully custom kitchen, brand new washer and dryer, and more.

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 rental.

The chef-ready custom kitchen features high-end kitchen appliances that make it convenient to whip up any meal – although with so many great restaurants within blocks of the rental, it may be hard to resist going out for meals. 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 (shower and toilet – no baths). One of the two bathrooms opens both to the bedroom as well as the hallway, allowing the third bedroom to access the bathroom from the hallway just off the bedroom.

The rental is located on the second floor (spiral staircase!). Absolutely no parties or late-night noise will be tolerated.

Guest Access:
You have access to the large front porch with dedicated seating for only you, rear porch, and patio with big Green Egg charcoal grill, charcoal being complimentary of course.

The Neighborhood:
Once the site of colonial lumber mills, Cannonborough is now an inviting neighborhood blending stylish historic and reproduction architecture. It's also located within walking distance of Upper King Street's excellent restaurants, shops, and bars.

Getting Around:
There is plenty to see and places to visit within walking distance. Uber and Lyft are very common. You will not face any delay catching an uber.

Other Things to Note:
We are three blocks from King Street. Cannon Street dead ends into King where you would be right in the middle of all the activity - many nice restaurants such as The Darling, the Grocery, Ordinary, Endaco, good places to have drinks like Stars, the Belmont, Midtown, Prohibition. There are also great niche restaurants closer than King Street. Pick the experience - fine dining to relaxed outdoor dining, it is here. You could look up Hominy Grill, Chez Nous, Trattoria Lucca, Fuel, Goulette. Since Cannon Street (and Spring Street) are the only legal areas in the city to host an AirBnb in Charleston, you will be in good company here.

If you want the full Charleston experience you need to sign up for a walking tour or carriage tour, a must. If you have sea legs and are aiming for total immersion into history, the steamboat runs to Ft. Sumter several times daily so that you can land your two feet at 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.

We had a wonderful stay. The location was perfect for our surrounding events. My only regrets were not having enough time to eat at the restaurant next door and too little time spent enjoying the balcony. We would definitely stay here again.

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.

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!

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!

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.
