High end remodel of this Charleston historic home was finished in June 2019. King sized bed in front bedroom and Queen sized in back bedroom. The home has top end finishings including re-milled original Heart Pine floors, glass wall shower in masters bedroom, a tub/shower in the spare bedroom, granite bathroom countertops and butcher block countertops in kitchen, to name a few features. This completely furnished duplex home is a cavernous 2 bedroom 2.5 bath 1100 sqft per unit. The bedrooms have blinds and blackout curtains. This is for the downstairs unit A. Access is at the private front door on the front porch or at the back parking lot on the back porch. Off street parking for 2 cars per each unit A and B. Off street parking is hard to come by in this part of the city. The back parking is very private and surrounded by fencing. We are pet friendly and charge a pet fee. Once you're settled in the home is walking distance to many attractions like the The Ravenel Bridge, Cigar Factory, Marion Square, King St, Meeting St, Visitors Center, and many eateries and bars and parks. The home is located in the Eastside neighborhood which is becoming one of the most beautiful areas of the city to live. Many homes in this area are being refreshed along with enormous development projects by national development companies. The biggest current project on the Charleston Peninsula is the Evening Post Courier Square development. This property is 2 blocks away and a multi million dollar Phase 6 project focused on both residential and commercial community. 15 years ago this neighborhood was overlooked by the majority of locals and visitors, but today it's now becoming the area many are moving to and or visiting. 5 years ago I would tell my renters at my other properties in the neighborhood that the area is "Up and Coming", now I tell renters the neighborhood is "Up and Came". It's still a great area to invest so if you're looking for an opportunity I can assist you in that matter since that's what I do professionally, real estate renovation and investments. I currently own 5 homes in the Eastside neighborhood. The neighborhood is so convenient to the city as a whole. You are centrally located with a main artery, Meeting St a block away to be able to get uptown or downtown quickly without the historical downtown area's grid lock traffic. With in walking distance to many of the city's attractions you can walk to the Ravenel Bridge, Visitors Center, Marion Square, MUSC, College of Charleston, Cigar Factory, Martin Luther King public pool, Upper King St where there are the newest hippest eateries/bars/breweries. But most importantly the history of this neighborhood gives you a real sense of community. This neighborhood is where locals live and have lived for decades. It's not a fabricated neighborhood, it's got soul and appeal and real beauty and it's only getting better. The potential has not been met and only a few more years for the whole area to be developed. Come stay at my property and be apart of this transformation. I have all my rental properties cleared and blessed for the soul purpose of creating harmony for my renters because I believe our homes should be a sacred safe haven. Home clearings and blessings will release negative energy from the living space. All dwellings and land on earth are a repository for our energetic debris, affecting anyone who lives in any domicile. Have you ever passed through a room or building and immediately felt
uncomfortable? The feelings and emotions that we experience when we enter a room are the energies left by previous inhabitants. When we vacate the premises, we add to the energetic mix. Therefore, the negative energetic debris of anger, fear, frustration, violence, and depression are more readily absorbed. By removing unwanted and unintended energy from your space, you create mental and emotional balance. A mental state of well-being, lightness, and clarity follow. Thus accepting a home or business to feel much more relaxing and calm.

We are pet friendly but we charge a $100-$150-$250 pet fee “per pet” depending on length of stay. If you bring a pet/s we need to know what types and their size. Also, very important your family pets nails are groomed since we have “Heart Pine” wood floors and want to avoid excessive scratching and normal wear and tear. Please pick up after your pet if they use the driveway and bag it before discarding in the trash can. Family Animals are not allowed on the beds/couch, but I know that’s not 100% certain so if you do have a pet that jumps on beds/couches please use the blankets in the unit or bring additional blankets to cover them. If possible crate your pet while gone. Also if you have a pet that sheds a lot you are responsible to do a cleaning of the fur before check out. A fast vacuum or sweep might be needed on your part so it doesn’t overwhelm the cleaners. An additional cleaning fee ($150) will apply if excess pet fur is left in the unit on the floor/linens/furnishings/outside porches. Keep in mind the original pet fee is not necessarily for additional cleaning. The fee is set just to allow your pet on the property not to cover the cleaning due to your pet. So excess fur inside and outside of the home would be where this additional charge comes into effect. If you have a dog/s that barks excessively when you’re not there this may not be the home for you since there is a unit above. Be conscious of this since we don’t want to disturb the other renters. You know your pet/s best so please keep this in mind. If you bring a pet and do not let us know we’ll charge double the pet fee and reserve the right to ask you to leave without a refund. It’s very important we know if pets are on property.

Strategies for getting the best rental home experience:

Finding your perfect rental home:

• The sooner your group can book a rental home, the easier your search will be. The best vacation homes are booked very early. Reserving your rental home up to twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Holiday gatherings are excellent times to search for and reserve your vacation home.
• Reserve your Charleston area vacation in the Spring or Fall to get the benefit of beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to reserve a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable during June, July, and August. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook the holidays for a Charleston area vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday on the coast? Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
• Hosts sometimes offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Ask your host or property manager if special discounts are available for your group before you book.
• Property management companies frequently offer renters an option to add vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually will cost anywhere between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unanticipated hotel stay or additional fuel expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for details.
• Many rental management companies and vacation rental houses supply Charleston area area visitors guides which will include special deals, either offered directly by local businesses, or by way of a relationship with the rental management company and the business itself. You can also find Charleston area visitors guide magazine and coupon books at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers.

Selecting the best vacation rental in Charleston:

• Note the number bedrooms and the configuration your family requires. Newly Listed: Charming home in historic dwtn, walk to shops\/parks, Free parking has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rentals search.

Some things to know before you go:

• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to order the best nachos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for bird watching?
• Double-check every room of the rental property to make sure that you've packed all belongings at departure. Remember to check garages, decks, and cabinets for hidden items. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Remember to leave feedback! Property owners rely on excellent reviews to stimulate future bookings. They'll be grateful for your review. Alternatively, if something wasn't right, other vacationers will appreciate that you share your review and help them have the best future vacation. Be fair with your review. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the host had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded quickly to fix it.
