This isn’t one of those impersonal holiday homes where you’re just getting four walls and somewhere to lay your head. Indeed, there are so many lovely personal touches in this Charleston home you may well start believing you actually live here. Tucked away in the charming Cannonborough neighbourhood, it takes over the upper floor of a colourful clapperboard building just off Upper King street – right in the heart of all the shopping, eating and drinking action – and a short walk from the sights of downtown. Inside, the modern boho-hipster style is as much Brooklyn as it is South Carolina, with plants, kilim rugs and wicker lights that bring a cool yet homely feel to the open-plan living area. And when you’re done with exploring this vibrant city, you can recline on the stylish sofa or take up a seat on the breezy porch to watch the world go by. Either way you’ll find plenty to like about this homely home from home.
