⭐ ABOUT THIS SPACE — The Crystal Palace



A luminous 1850s Charleston Single, fully restored in 2025, just steps from King Street.



Welcome to The Crystal Palace, a glamorous 5-bedroom, 5-bath historic retreat in the heart of downtown Charleston—only 0.25 miles from King Street and surrounded by cafés, restaurants, bakeries, and nightlife. Perfect for wedding parties, bachelor/bachelorette groups, families, and friend getaways, this beautifully restored Charleston home was reimagined with luxury finishes, incredible porches, and sparkling chandeliers throughout.



Designed for groups who want walkability first and beach days second, this rare Charleston property offers both: stroll to King Street in minutes or reach Sullivan’s Island and Isle of Palms in just 15 minutes.



Inside, you’ll find soaring ceilings, statement décor, and a stunning chef’s kitchen with a large island, brand-new appliances, and seating for 4–6. The dining area seats 12 comfortably—perfect for shared meals before a night out. A spacious open-concept living room with a large smart TV provides an inviting place to gather and relax.



The home features five beautifully appointed guest bedrooms with luxury bedding and spacious bathrooms, including multiple ensuite layouts designed for comfort and privacy. Upstairs, step onto the classic Charleston second-floor porch to sip coffee, watch the city come alive, or enjoy the glow of Charleston nightlife.



Outside, enjoy two classic Charleston porches, front and back patios, outdoor dining, and a rare-for-downtown private parking lot accommodating up to 6 vehicles unstacked or additional stacked parking—a massive advantage in Charleston.



This is luxury, convenience, and Charleston charm at its finest—positioned exactly where groups want to be while offering an unforgettable downtown Charleston experience.

    The house is absolutely beautiful. It was fully renovated and the owners thought of every detail. We are a group of 12 friends that get together every year for a girls trip. Communication was great from the start. When we arrived, Ted had snacks and water stocked in the kitchen for our arrival. The beds and linens were so comfortable and high end. Robes in every bedroom. I felt like we were staying at a friend’s home. It was a perfect house for a group of our size, plenty of space to relax and catch up. Location is great due to proximity to King St, and plenty of parking for 3 SUV’s. If we come back to Charleston, this is the only place we will stay. Thank you Ted for your wonderful hospitality.
