Welcome to Saint Philip Square, an award-winning collection of historic homes spanning nearly one city block in downtown Charleston. The John Bulow House at 174 A Saint Philip Street Unit 1 is a 3-bed 3-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 is ideal for families or groups seeking an authentic Charleston experience.

Bedroom 1 – Queen bed, dressing table, fireplace, antique mirror, enormous closet, handsome decor. Features a bespoke-constructed Murphy bed, accepting additional living space.
Bedroom 2 – King bed, ensuite bath, side table, lamps, writing desk, and colorful art.
Bedroom 3 – Queen bed, reading lamps, writing table, closet, and unique decor.

Living Room – Charming bay window, period fireplace, four upholstered chairs, flat-screen TV.
Kitchen – Totally outfitted with modern appliances, combination Keurig pod/pot coffee machine.
Dining Area – Roomy dining table with seating for six, opening to the living room.

- Landscaped parking for 1 car.

This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a remodeled 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!
