A master bedroom and curtained sunroom each offer king beds for flexible sleeping. Located in a quiet, walkable historic downtown neighborhood. Perfect for couples or a sophisticated girls’ weekend. Private entrance, thoughtfully designed 1,000 sq. ft. interior. Exclusive off-street parking with EV charger.

Good to know

Set on a prestigious Broad Street block, steps from the boutiques of lower King and the galleries and restaurants of the French Quarter, this home sits in a true historic residential neighborhood – not in the dense short-term rental overlay where whole blocks have become mini hotel districts. Here, you’re staying in one of the few licensed short-term rentals among long-time neighbors, leafy streets, and classic Charleston homes. Inside, your private 1,000 sq. ft. residence feels like a small boutique hotel suite hidden inside an 1850s house. Original 12-ft ceilings, polished wood floors, tall sash windows, and heritage colors create a refined, quietly luxurious backdrop. Thoughtful modern updates keep everything effortless. SLEEP - The home offers a serene king bedroom with luxe linens and a historic mantel, plus a curtained sunroom with a second king bed, giving guests flexible sleeping arrangements. - Ideal layout for a couple wanting extra space, two friends traveling together, or a relaxed girls’ weekend. LIVE -Comfortable living room with a large flatscreen TV for unwinding after a day exploring. -Premium washer and dryer so you can pack light and still feel at home. COOK The kitchen is fully equipped for everything from simple breakfasts to dinner in: - Bosch gas stove and oven - Bosch dishwasher - Full-size fridge with filtered water and ice - Instant-on boiling water dispenser - Keurig coffee maker and drip coffee machine - Microwave and blender - Complete cookware, dinnerware, glassware, and silverware REFRESH -Modern, spa-style bathroom with a sleek rain shower and quality towels. OUTDOOR SPACE -Private courtyard with historic Charleston battery benches -Fountain and greenery that make it feel like your own secret garden in the middle of downtown PARKING & EV - Private, off-street parking – a rare luxury in this part of the city - EV charger on-site so you can plug in overnight and explore stress-free by day WHO THIS HOME IS FOR This is the perfect base for guests who want the best of Charleston – architecture, food, galleries, and water views – and want to come “home” to a calm, residential street rather than a late-night party scene. If your ideal evening is a great dinner on lower King, a quiet walk back, and a glass of wine in a hidden courtyard, you’re in the right place.

Other Details to Note

As with many 170-year-old historic Charleston homes, the original heart-pine floors have natural unevenness, adding to the character of the space. The home was also built before modern residential plumbing, so there is a small step up to both the kitchen and bathroom. These features are typical of properties in this era and part of the home’s unique charm.

Tim’s place was in an excellent location. We walked everywhere in the downtown area. It also had off street parking. Tim was extremely helpful and accommodating. We would definitely stay there again.

This was a fantastic home and Tim was very friendly and responsive. We loved the street and the neighborhood. Having off the street parking was so convenient; we parked the car for 4 days and walked everyplace. The home was beautifully equipped with lovely towels and linens, and the kitchen had everything we wanted -and more! We will surely return to Charleston and stay here again in the future.

We so enjoyed staying at Tim’s place on Queen. The apartment was charming, clean, and one of the best equipped places we’ve ever stayed. We had everything and more to make our four-night stay wonderful. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We so appreciated having off-street parking, and the location and neighborhood couldn’t have been better for walking to many good restaurants and other sites. We always felt safe and the neighbors we met were so friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Tim’s place!

We had such an awesome time at Timothy's place. The location is perfect and walkable to pretty much everything. We loved sipping wine on the porch in the afternoon next to the fountain, so peaceful. This was the perfect place to stay. Timothy was an awesome and helpful host. Would definitely stay here again.
