About this Property

• Sleeps 4
• 2 Bedrooms

• Condo
• Approximately 1170 square feet

Tucked away South of Broad, on one of Charleston's most famed streets, you will find a unique, historic home that has been converted into two modern apartments with historic touches. This second-floor apartment provides 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with antique wood floors, an open concept living/dining/kitchen area, and a phenomenal rooftop terrace with Charleston vistas from the Ashley River to the Cooper River.

You will be surprised and delighted with the special touches and updates within, and you will appreciate being South of Broad on the "carriage tour circuit", with the Battery, Colonial Lake, and the Horse Lot about two blocks away. Plus, you will have eateries, shopping, and everything Downtown living has to offer close by.

Every day is an adventure! From outdoors enthusiasts to foodies, there is something for everybody! Savor a day of tennis, golfing, boating, beaching, touring historic homes, or just cycling around. After changing, you can walk over to Costa, one of Charleston's hottest new eateries for coastal Italian fare from Liguria to Amalfi and down to Sicily. Or make a right on Broad Street to find local favorites Sorrelle, Millers All Day, and Fast and French.

Bonus: you have tandem parking for two cars and street parking for guests.

Please note, this is a monthly rental only. The City of Charleston has a draconian ordinance that only accepts properties on the National Register of Historic Places to have nightly rental permits in our neighborhood. But at this price, you can book a month for the cost of two weeks in the nightly rental zone - just stay as many nights as you need!

Tips to get the best Charleston vacation property experience:

How to get the best rental home value:

• Summertime is the most expensive season along the coast of SC. Reserve your Charleston area rental property in the Spring or Fall to enjoy warm weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this strategy to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the Summer.
• The sooner you can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The most desirable rental properties are reserved very early. Booking your vacation rental up to twelve months before your travel dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and reserve your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner or host whether your vacationing group qualifies for a special rate.
• Booking websites usually offer guests an option to add trip insurance protection. Trip insurance, which costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel stay or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for more information.
• Look for your local Charleston area visitors guide magazine when you arrive at the rental property. If your rental home doesn't have one, you can find them at local grocery stores and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, travel guides contain offers and deals for local accommodations, tours and attractions.

Make a plan and pick the perfectvacation home:

• First, have your family agree to the best dates and a maximum budget.
• Determine how many beds and the configuration you need. Charmingly Charleston: 2BR\/2.5BA, South of Broad w\/Rooftop Terrace & Parking has 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our Charleston area rentals search.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts is often available on booking websites. If they are not listed, email the host before reserving the rental. Remember that most property listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes pull out couches in living rooms. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your group.
• Are you visiting for a specific event? Use a map search to locate nearby properties.
• Suitable accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for persons with a disability. Make certain to inquire about wheel chair entry, pool lifts and specialized equipment needs.
• Some rental properties allow pets, and others do not. Acceptable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and additional costs may apply. Ask the owner about allowable pet guidelines before booking.

More considerations:

• Put the manager's information in your smartphone.
• To make sure no damages are linked to your visit, inspect the property for any problem areas during check in. text the property manager right away to document your findings. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded concerns and contact attempts will be useful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a hot tub, A/V setup or thermostat. Contact your owner. They are there to help! A brief phone call prevents lots of concerns.
• Respect the neighborhood. Often, nearby homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting noise limits and parking rules reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can often help. Who better to ask where to grab the best tacos, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking the property when you are gone, just like you would back home.
• Just before checking out, complete a walk-through to make sure you did not forget any personal items. Make sure to check bathrooms, garages, and back yards for hidden belongings. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Go through the property a final time and scan for any damage. We recommend inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager is not available, remember to take photographs of the property to record its condition at check-out.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or host was great, they would love to hear about it. If anything was wrong and they failed to correct it within reason, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make it a point as part of your comments.
