This bungalow home has tons of privacy and a relaxed, tropical feeling - all while being in the middle of it all.
Close to everything Charleston has to offer - the marsh, the ocean, Avondale food and nightlife scene, the Angel Oak Tree, King Street and downtown, Folly Beach, James Island, West Ashley shopping- yet the property's Ocean Pine trees make it feel like a retreat.
This is a ranch style home with an additional 750 square-foot bedroom with en-suite bathroom constructed in 2016, as well as a 500+square foot screened-in porch.

I am available as much or little as needed and can be reached any time.

Awesome spot for groups!
Came to Charleston for an eleven person bachelor party, Taylor was an excellent host who was super responsive and made sure we were taken care of and comfortable! The Tropic is a great spot to stay at and I wish I could give it 6 stars! Awesome if you're looking to get to Charleston with a few friends or a group of people!
