About this property
8B at Saint Philip Square, One Block to King, Spacious Group and Family Favorite
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 B 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 retreat offers a perfect location for families or groups seeking an authentic Charleston experience.
Bedroom 1: King bed, ensuite bath, end tables, reading lamps, computer/dressing table, and double closet.
Bedroom 2: Two queen beds, ensuite bath with soaking tub or kids’ bath, side table, and dressing table.
Bathroom 1: Marble and tile bath with shower head, separate hand held shower, and glass shower.
Bathroom 2: Tub/shower combination, glass door, rain shower head, and separate handheld shower.
Living Room:
Comfortable sofa, two upholstered swivel chairs, flat-screen TV, coffee table, marble top end tables.
Kitchen:
Fully stocked with modern appliances, combination Keurig pod/pot coffee machine, all the small electric gadgets, opens to the living room and dining area.
This unit has its own private porch with comfortable outdoor seating!
- Landscaped parking for 1 vehicle.
This is not a typical short-term rental; it is not a renovated dependency or a newly constructed unit in an old neighborhood, nor is it situated on a tiny lot in a questionable or remote area. The old hardwood floors, tall ceilings, original moldings, plasterwork, windows, and doors exude a special warmth, character, and charm 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!
*If needing early check-in or late check-out please DO NOT ask until the day before check-in at earliest due possible last minute rentals. If you absolutely NEED it, I would suggest renting the night prior*
*Pet Policy: Only Small Pets under 25 pounds (maximum of 2) allowed with prior written approval ($200 non-refundable fee per pet).Must have authorization prior to reservation.*
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 renowned dining, attractions and shopping along King Street.
Earning 5 esteemed awards from The Preservation Society of Charleston for historic reservation, our accommodations blend new with nostalgia - each boasting unique charm and character.
