Welcome to the Perfect Downtown Pied-a-Terre - right on Colonial Lake, and within walking distance to all Charleston has to offer. Walking distance to MUSC, the College of Charleston, and the liveliness of King St. and Downtown Charleston. Located inside the stunning 1922 Beaux Arts building, Berkeley Courts, this studio's 10ft ceilings help flood the space with natural light. This newly renovated studio boasts original hardwood floors; an updated kitchen featuring quartz countertops with a 2 burner cooktop and ceramic sink; an updated wireless/alexa-responsive ceiling fan with light (not shown here); and a walk-in closet. The charming bathroom features original penny tile, original cast iron tub, and modern hardware. A murphy bed keeps the space open and airy during the day. Can be furnished or unfurnished (current furnishings not displayed in attached photos).
**The neighborhood**
Established in the 1700s, Harleston Village is dotted with Georgian and Italianate buildings on tree-lined streets. Joggers and cyclists head to the sidewalks and shady trees around Colonial Lake (right outside your doorstep!). To the east, King Street is a hub of upscale boutiques, restaurants, and bars with outdoor patios and a hip vibe.
Owner pays for water, trash, sewer; Renter pays for electric and internet (note: low utility bills). Furnished optional. No smoking allowed. Street parking only (very easy, very close as it is right on Colonial Lake). Rental price negotiable depending on duration of lease term. $35 application fee (through Zillow; no additional if you already have a Zillow app), additional pet rental fee may apply. $1150 deposit, $300 administrative fee, and first month's rent due at signing.
To complete an application please email the last 2 pay stubs and a copy of your driver's license. Animals, if accepted, may be screened and a monthly animal rent may be charged. Proof of renters insurance is required prior to move-in.
