With abundant natural lighting, a balcony, professionally turfed shared backyard, beds for six guests, and family-friendly features, your stay will be a coastal getaway to remember.
When you step into this 1200 sq ft home, you are welcomed by vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan, creating an airy and inviting atmosphere. The well-appointed chef's kitchen, complete with quartz countertops, a large island, and new appliances, offers a perfect setting for culinary adventures. In the adjoining living room and balcony, you're invited to unwind on the high-end Arhaus sofa or feel the warm coastal breeze on your skin while relaxing on the porch swing.
Rest peacefully in the three cozy bedrooms, each designed to provide comfort after a day of beach lounging or exploring downtown Charleston. In the first bedroom, you'll find a luxurious king bed and well-appointed desk, providing a comfortable workspace for those needing to attend to work matters while enjoying their tropical escape. Bedrooms two and three are adorned with Serena and Lily wallpaper and feature queen sized beds and lounge chairs, perfect for curling up with a good book or simply unwinding after a day of exploration. To ensure a restful night's sleep, each room is equipped with blackout blinds and sound machines, guaranteeing a peaceful and uninterrupted slumber, allowing you to wake up refreshed and ready to embrace the day's adventures.
In the bathroom, you'll find a luxurious rain shower and a relaxing bathtub. The dual vanity adds a touch of elegance, while essential toiletries, including shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, are thoughtfully provided. Fresh towels, a hairdryer, and clothing steamer are also available, ensuring convenience during your stay.
Outside, the shared backyard is a tranquil oasis for mingling with friends, playing with your kids, or grilling fresh seafood. It features professionally turfed grounds, a large custom pergola with built-in bench seating, a swing, and poufs. Fire up the grill and savor the flavors of outdoor cooking. The backyard also offers six Adirondack chairs, a coffee table, and a large JENGA set for additional entertainment.
Additional amenities include high-speed Wi-Fi, air conditioning, heating, a washer/dryer, children's toys/books for ages 0-5, and free parking for one vehicle. Families traveling with young children will appreciate the availability of a pack + play and a highchair. Beach accessories and towels are also provided.
Located in a quiet neighborhood, The Harper Suite offers the perfect balance of serenity and convenience. Just a leisurely stroll away, you'll find an enticing selection of cocktail bars, dining options, and boutique shops, allowing you to immerse yourself in the vibrant local scene and experience the cultural richness of Charleston. When you're ready to feel the sand between your toes, three stunning beaches await you within a short 15-minute drive. Whether you're craving adventure, relaxation, or a bit of both, our little piece of paradise has everything you need for an unforgettable getaway.
Guest access You will have exclusive access to the entire top floor unit, providing you with a private and dedicated space during your stay. Additionally, please note that the backyard is a shared space for all guests to enjoy.
NEED MORE SPACE? We currently have 6 total units. There are 2 duplexes that are side-by-side. The green duplex has The Emerson Suite (top floor-3bd/1ba w/balcony) and The Charles Suite (first floor-2bd/1ba) and next door, the white duplex has The Harper Suite (top floor-3bd/1ba w/large balcony) and The Victoria Suite (first floor-3bd/2ba w/large porch). These two properties share a large professionally turfed backyard. Additionally, a half block down the street, we have another duplex with the Poppy Suite (top floor of grey duplex-3bd/1ba w/two balconies) and the Isla Suite (first floor-4bd/2ba w/porch), both of which share a professionally turfed courtyard. Be sure to check out the individual listings for a full list of amenities.
QUIET HOURS Please note that this listing is situated on the top floor of a beautifully restored historic duplex. Although extensive renovations have been carried out, it is possible to hear occasional noise from the unit below. To ensure a peaceful and comfortable environment, sound machines have been thoughtfully provided in each bedroom. We kindly request that all guests show consideration towards one another by honoring our community's designated "quiet hours" between 10pm and 7am. By being mindful of noise levels during these times, we can maintain a harmonious atmosphere and ensure a restful stay for everyone.
EVENTS Access to the property is restricted to only those individuals included in the reservation, unless prior arrangements have been made and agreed upon.
NON SMOKING For the comfort and well-being of all guests, our property maintains a strict no-smoking policy. Smoking is prohibited on-site, and any violation of this policy will result in a charge of $250. We appreciate your cooperation in maintaining a smoke-free environment.
PARKING You will have one parking space in our private lot. Should your group want additional parking, please contact us to discuss options! We also have one Tesla charger which would need reserved ahead of time.
PRE-APPROVED DOGS WELCOME We wholeheartedly embrace our furry friends! We gladly welcome pups to join you during your stay, with an additional fee of $80 per dog, and a maximum of two dogs per reservation. Because you will be staying in a recently renovated unit within a property that may have other guests, we kindly request that all dogs are well-behaved, trained, and considerate towards fellow humans. To maintain cleanliness and hygiene, we kindly ask that pets refrain from accessing the bed, uncovered furniture, and encourage the use of a crate when you are not present, if you believe it is necessary. By bringing your pet, you acknowledge and accept full responsibility and liability for their actions and any potential damages.
For the comfort and enjoyment of all guests, we kindly request that dogs are not allowed in the backyard. The yard has been professionally turfed to provide a pristine and pleasant outdoor space. Dog urine can create an unpleasant odor and potentially damage the turf. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in keeping the backyard clean and odor-free for everyone's enjoyment.
CAMERA SECURITY To ensure the safety and security of our property, we have installed exterior cameras. We want to reassure our guests that the footage captured by Ring cameras is strictly confidential and does not violate their privacy expectations. It is important to note that tampering with or obstructing the cameras is strictly prohibited. Any guest found attempting to disable or obscure the cameras may face immediate eviction without a refund. Our intention is solely to maintain a secure environment for everyone's peace of mind.
INCLEMENT WEATHER We have a strict cancellation policy in place. Refunds will only be issued if mandatory evacuations are ordered by The National Weather Service or local government authorities. Please keep in mind that refunds will not be provided if inclement weather in other states prevents guests from reaching Charleston. We highly recommend travelers to consider obtaining travel insurance, especially during months when weather conditions may impact their stay. Furthermore, in the unlikely event of power outages, internet disruptions, or any other situations beyond our control caused by local storms, we will make every effort to resolve the issues promptly. However, we regret that we cannot offer refunds for any inconveniences caused by such circumstances.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fenced private yard, and a coffee maker.

We had a great time in Charleston for a long weekend. Loved the location, there is an awesome coffee shop at the end of the street. The unit is upstairs with a nice porch. It is well maintained and clean for an older place. The only downside is there is one bathroom. Hosts are very service focused and attentive.

Because of Hurricane Ian and cancellation of events, we couldn't come to Charleston. However, the owners were AMAZING in offering suggestions and even a partial refund. I didn't cancel the stay, because I didn't want them to issue the refund out of fairness to them. I hope to be able to enjoy this spot in the near future!!!!!
