Welcome to Saint Philip Square, an award-winning collection of historic homes spanning nearly one city block of downtown Charleston. The Alexander Wilson House at 178 Unit A Saint Philip St. is a 2-bed 2-bath gem blending modern comfort with Charleston’s rich history just one block from King St. Recognized with 5 Carolopolis Awards and the SC Governor’s Award for Historic Restoration, this getaway offers a ideal location for families or groups seeking an authentic Charleston experience.

Bedroom 2: Queen size bed with private bathroom, natural light, enchanting art.

Bathroom 1: Marble and tile bath, deluxe shower head, separate handheld shower, glass shower door.

Kitchen: Totally supplied, combination Keurig drip / pod combination coffee maker, all the modest electronic gadgets.

Living Area: Bright with tons of natural light, sleeper couch, and open to the kitchen.

- Landscaped parking for 1 car.

This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a refreshed dependency or a freshly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it located on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old wood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows, and doors exude a special warmth, character, and appeal that is very difficult to achieve in new construction. The exterior copper roof and guttering provide additional warmth and character. It's the real deal!

Offsite Resort Conveniences:
- Access to The Wonderer, an exclusive adult-only resort downtown Charleston 2.6 miles away from Saint Philip Square (guests 25+ only; no one under 21 allowed at the pool).
- Olympic-sized heated pool (cabana units available).
- Gym and exercise classes (additional charges apply).
- Onsite bars, restaurant, and workspaces.
- Note: The Wonderer is a separate entity, and availability may vary. Book in advance for guaranteed access.

St. Philip Square offers a city block of historic elegance right in the heart of Charleston’s vibrant Cannonborough district. Just one block to King Street, walkable to Charleston’s world acclaimed dining, attractions and shopping along King Street.
