Timeless Renovated Efficiency in Downtown Charleston

Summary:
Here you can live by relaxing both indoors and outdoors.

The Space:
Summons the expression of truly refined Ante-Bellum experience with all modern amenities. In the kitchen enjoy the timeless La CornueFe gas oven and cooktop range from Saint-Ouen l'Aumone, France served by a whisper quiet, made in the USA Vent-a-hood. Here you can celebrate the glorious culinary traditions of the Old World using only top-of-the-line All-Clad cookware and utensils. Stemless red and white wine glasses were not overlooked. All coffee mugs, and glasses are made of clear insulated glass along with the serving plates, salad plates and bowls so rest assured every item is sparkling. Tidy up after a meal using the stainless bridge faucet in the farmhouse porcelain sink. All items are stored using efficient Rev-a-shelf hardware to house the spices, cutlery, flatware and accessories. Of course, the cabinetry ,kitchen island and 8 foot tall barn doors are hand made on-site using only heart pine sourced during the renovation of the house, from the house.

Crystal-clear Samsung high-definition 4k smart television with Xfinity cable. Netflix, Amazon video, and Hulu are intuitively available at the touch of the remote and are complimentary.

The bathroom is tiled using the original re-purposed slate from Vermont dating back to when the house was built by shipwrights in 1851. The original standing-seam tin front porch roofing was salvaged and is applied to the wall as the backsplash to the hand-made heart pine vanity with hand-hammered nickel-plated vessel sink. The bathroom features a slate-tiled walk-in shower with Kohler rain-head showers. The water closets were sourced from Kent, England to provide a period feel from the Old-World.

In every bedroom , I provide you with a sound machine as well as smart-charging stations for your electronic devices. Enjoy the combination of cypress ship-lap wood walls and heart pine throughout. Most, if not all, heart pine material used dates back to approximately the year 1600.

Outdoor-
Remember that before the advent of air conditioning, Charlestonians tended to congregate on their porches to socialize and spend time to enjoy a cool sea breeze. There are rocking chairs on the porch making it a great place to relax with a book while watching the happenings on Cannon Street. But you do not have to settle for just one porch.. you have a rear porch and patio to enjoy as well. The patio has a lounge chair sofa with an Acorn barbecue grill, all utensils and charcoal provided.

Guest Access:
Outdoor patio with Acorn barbecue grill, all outdoor cooking utensils provided.

The Neighborhood:
The Cannonborough neighborhood is an inviting downtown area that blends classic architecture with a modern lifestyle. From here, it's easy walking distance to historic locations and a selection of delicious restaurants, cafes, and bakeries.

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 short term rentals 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 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.

Charleston getaway
We had a wonderful time at this VRBO. The location was a convenient walk to many of the places that we had wanted to visit. We especially enjoyed the porch, where each morning we ate our breakfast. Many good restaurants nearby. The checkin and communication was very good.

Perfect Charleston Getaway
Stunning, squeaky clean, comfortable beds, great location for walking to amazing restaurants, cafes, etc. Sitting out on the porch with coffee and wine was one of our favorite things!

5 day stay
only issues were that the bathroom was teeny and there were no dressers or shelves to unpack (there were closets with hangers). This wouldn't have been a big deal if we were just there for a day but we were there for 5 nights and had to live out of our suitcases. other then the above, the place was very cool and we loved the way it was decorated etc. location was great and Randall was very responsive and accommodating.

Great historical property near downtown
Our favorite part of our visit to Charleston was actually sitting on the front balcony of this property, watching folks walk by, hearing diners at Southbound next door. We will definitely stay again!

Well appointed!
My spouse and I stayed at this architecturally unique rental the first week of October. The apartment was very clean and has many antique architectural features and appointments. The owner has gone to great lengths to create an authentic space using reclaimed building materials. The kitchen is beautifully equipped with high end appliances that would suit any amateur or professional chef. The bedding and towels were very nice, and the unit was very clean. It is in a good central location to visit historic Charleston as well as other sites of interest in the area. I would highly recommend a stay here!

Wonderful location and beautiful property!
This property was in a perfect location. An easy walk to King Street and a quick Uber to more downtown locations. It's been beautifully renovated and we loved drinking our morning coffee on the front porch. My only complaint is the lack of warm water. We reached out to the owners (who were wonderful) and they suggested we needed to let the water run longer, as it's old plumbing and needs to travel a ways. We waited over 15 minutes - no warm water. So we took cold showers, but still enjoyed our visit.

Perfect place to stay
Wow! What a fabulous place The Charlestonian is!! The host has thought of everything - both in the decor of the space to make it feel like a home and in the attention to detail to include everything a guest may need. And the location is excellent for walking; just blocks from King Street. I am already thinking about when I can come back!

Excellent Property and Location
Me, my wife, and infant son stayed at this amazing rental for a weekend stay. It was the perfect location to walk around, shop, and eat. The check in process was seamless and the property was exactly as described. Having a parking spot made getting around the city and barrier islands very easy. 10/10 would recommend staying here during your time in Charleston.

Wonderful Experience
We loved staying at this property! The place was gorgeous and near King street, so we walked everywhere we needed to go. We also took advantage of the covered front deck for a glass of wine during a light rainstorm and it is one of my favorite memories of our trip. There are also restaurants beside and below the property, giving us more easy options. George and team were very communicative, even as our travel plans kept updating at the last minute. Overall, a great experience!

Perfect location, high end stay
The location is amazing, away from the busy foot and car traffic of downtown, while still easy to get to great restaurants and more. The accommodations were built with such care and with luxury touches. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend! George and Morgan we’re wonderful hosts, quick to respond, very helpful and friendly.

Rustic luxury in a great location!
The interior and exterior were both absolutely gorgeous. We enjoyed sitting out in the porch and people watching until late! The shower was a fan favorite, and the interior, while small, was so tasteful and luxurious with everything we needed for a great stay. Awesome location- quiet enough to be relaxing, central enough that we could go anywhere. Thanks George for a great stay!
