Charming studio English Basement suite located in a entirely remodeled 1850's antebellum mansion.

No detail was overlooked in the remodel of this historic home in Charleston's Cannonborough neighborhood, featuring attractively restored cypress wall panelling, a bespoke-kitchenette with high-end finishes, French Baroque inspired-tin ceiling paneling, and exquitie bath finishes including reclaimed 1854 Vermont roofing slate from the home and a polished nickel British high-tank water closet.

The rental features a queen bed with premium linens & all the amenities of a boutique hotel - quality bath products & towels, hair dryer, iron, wi-fi, premium TV channels with the added convenience of an exclusive and private outdoor patio sitting area.

Set back from the street, this comfortable efficiency provides a true Charleston experience for guests without breaking the bank! Easily walkable to MUSC, College of Charleston, King Street’s most fashionable retail, eateries & more.

Guests can access all areas shown in the photos. Access to this exclusive space is from the back porch down the spiral stair.

We are available to help you as needed throughout your stay if needed in any way.

Visitors can shop for tailored menswear at Indigo & Cotton located directly next door and across from the apartment; indulge in the city’s most appealing bakery – Sugar Bakeshop - located just across the street from the rental; and peruse the selection of handmade bags and leather goods at J. Stark, just down the block.

Many of the city’s most notable eateries are located in the Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighborhood, or an simple walk from the rental. In an October 2017 Thrillist article on where to eat in and around Charleston now – 11 of the 29 Charleston eateries listed are in painless walking distance to the home (the rest, an easy car or cab ride away): O-Ku, Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit, Chez Nous, The Darling Oyster Bar, The Grocery, Indaco, The Ordinary, Xiao Bao Biscuit, Warehouse, Chubby Fish.

We are only 3 blocks from Upper King Street, so most guests prefer to walk and discover the city. The beach is 15 mins. away by car. There is also a complimentary shuttle offered by the city that runs along King Street (3 blocks away) to trendy stops. Bicycle units are available close by or you might savor trying a pedicab taxi. We offer complimentary parking on site or in the lot we manage across the street.

Please note:

* One off street space included in the most difficult area of Charleston to find parking! Additional parking available across the street in our private lot at $20/day.

* This efficiency requires guests to access from the spiral staircase pictured here. This is the only access to the rental.

* This space is a patio apartment located in a half-basement with tons of light.

*There is an additional unit above this rental in the same home. If you happen to be traveling with a bigger event, we'd be happy to coordinate a rental to accommodate your friends or family.

*The bathroom of this space adjoins Ladles Soups' kitchen. Occasionally a sound or two may be heard emanating from the kitchen; however, this space is completely cordoned off and separated from this very tasty soup, salad, and sandwich shop.

* All Charleston homes in the historic footprint of the city - which this rental falls into - must abide by strict renovation mandates. As such all of our units must feature single pane glass to reflect the look and feel of the original home dating back to the 1800s. As such, noise does travel and we ask that all guests who rent from us here and at our properties adjacent please be respectful of neighbors at all times and especially watch noise levels when coming and going after 9 p.m. for the enjoyment of all guests.

* Loud noise and partying will not be tolerated.

How to book the best Charleston area rental experience:

Find your perfect rental home:

• The earlier your group can book a rental home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are booked early. Booking your vacation property six to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation rental.
• To get the most suitable rental within budget, we highly recommend booking in the Spring or Fall. You'll enjoy lower rates, better selection, warm weather and the absence of giant crowds at the beach and popular Charleston area attractions.
• Some property management companies offer rate reductions for veterans and active duty military. Make sure to check with your property manager to see if special offers are available for your group before you book.
• Property managers usually offer customers an option to buy vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which will generally cost 1% - 5% of the base booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed trip time as a result of medical-related issues or weather, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance might be a a life-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for program terms and fees.
• Find a copy of your local Charleston area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local shops and fuel stations. In addition to great articles, travel guides contain discounts for local accommodations, restaurants and tours.

How to select the perfect rental home in Charleston:

• To start, have your group commit to vacation dates and a spending budget.
• Decide how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration you need. Patio Suite at The Charlestonian has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area vacation rental search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is generally available online. Otherwise, call the property management company before booking the home. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to work out what configuration is best for your vacation group.
• Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Allowable pet type, breed, and size are often limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement thoroughly! Additional pet fees or applied to your agreement.
• Looking for unique amenities? Most rental websites include search filters for amenities.
• Suitable accessibility can make or ruin a vacation for guests that require the use of a wheelchair. Remember to confirm all required amenities are available before reserving a rental

During your stay:

• Review arrival and departure procedures before leaving home. Take a printed copy, and save the directions to your smartphone.
• Hosts are available to help! Don't be shy to ask questions before, during, or after your stay.
• Lock your rental home while you are out and about. Protect your property!
• To make certain that no damages are linked to your visit, inspect for any problem areas upon check in. Speak to the rental manager right away to record your findings. If there is a dispute, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You will increase your chance to make some new local friends, and resident neighbors are a terrific resource to find the best local restaurants, beaches, and hangouts.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Neighbors can typically help. Who better to ask where to find the best seashells, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• When it's time to leave, complete a walk-through to confirm you haven't forget any personal items. Re-check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Inspect the property one final time and look for damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever you can. If the manager is not available, take video of the rental to record its condition.
• Remember to leave a review! Hosts rely on excellent ratings to propel new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't as described, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your feedback and help them have the best future vacation. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to solve it.
