DORMER ROOMS Between the kitchen and the living room is a charming spiral staircase leading to two super charming DORMER ROOMS (2&3), each with their OWN BATH (2&3).

Of course the space is perfect for children but also a couple would be happy since each room has total privacy including closet space and desks. The space is under the dormers so a tall person will duck if getting in and out from the sides. The middle space in front of the window is full height. It is elegant and provides an opportunity for our guests to receive their guests as a Charlestonian would. The Wonderer Resort with pool and gym access is Off-site but within 5 to 10 minutes from our location, ideal for adults 25 and older (will make exception for 21 and up if with the group but no one under 21) What looks like a fun rooftop is off limits. The black tar will ruin your clothes and our blankets and is not safe. Our property manager’s office is onsite and she can help with any issues during the day. She is also available by phone and text. We are frequently onsite. However, we like to give our guests as much privacy as they want. Nested within the vibrant Cannonborough neighborhood, St. Philip Square is a collection of 6 restored historic homes with a spacious shared courtyard that span an entire city square block of downtown Charleston.    Sitting neatly between Morris and Cannon Street, St. Philip Square is one short block from the hustle, bustle, wining and dining of Charleston’s famous King Street. Idyllically situated, we are less than half a mile to Calhoun Street and a stone’s throw from South of Broad. In short, location, location, location…   With our abodes originally dating back the early 1800s, St. Philip Square was carefully, intentionally and respectfully renovated by the end of 2020. Showing remarkable reverence for local history and devotion to the Lowcountry lifestyle, our accommodations have earned 5 coveted Carolopolis Awards from The Preservation Society and the esteemed Governor’s Award.   Acquired in the early 1990’s, St. Philip Square was grandfathered into offering permitted short-term vacation rentals by the City of Charleston. A rarity across downtown, this legacy allows our guests to experience the comfort of private luxury accommodations alongside the experience of true community immersion.     With an unprecedented walk score of 96, most guests leave their cars in our spacious, protected parking area and easily stroll down to the restaurants, bars, boutiques, galleries and more mere steps away from their suite.    Marrying new with nostalgia, ours is a uniquely Charleston experience.
