This 2-bedroom beauty was completely modernized in late 2014. Taken down to the studs, every effort was made to ensure a comfortable stay for our guests. From industrial-grade soundproofing to re-designed porches, no detail was missed.

A simple, efficient open floor plan showcases a living room, bar and kitchen- all within one vantage point. Cozy seating for 7, brand-new stainless steel Bosch appliances, a 2-top bar and 50' flat screen with Direct TV are highlights.

The two bedrooms are just down the hall-

The King Bedroom features the best Malouf Egyptian cotton sheets, pillow-top bed and 6 pillows (both down and polyester). The comforters are hand-made and designed for the Charleston climate. Each duvet cover is professionally cleaned before each guest's arrival. There is a modest closet that stores a bags rack, iron and full-length mirror. A 45' flat screen with Direct TV is gorgeously positioned.

The second bedroom was freshly modernized and now has two twin beds, both with the same high-quality linens that you'll find throughout the property.

The two full bathrooms are clean and crisp. A European style glass and tile shower contrasts gorgeously to the white tile floor. All of the finest towels, makeup cloths and Gilchrist & Soames toiletries are included.
