Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The Rutledge Ave Inn is an operating five-unit bed and breakfast at 194-196 Rutledge Avenue. The 4,300-square-foot property includes a 1910 main house renovated down to the studs in 2008, with four rental units: two two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residences and two one-bedroom, one-bath residences. Central air, ceiling fans, and natural gas and electric heating serve the improvements.

A detached cottage completed in 2008 adds a two-level, two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence with a private fenced yard and rear porch. Set back from Rutledge Avenue, the cottage provides a separate setting within the property. The 0.20-acre parcel is located in Charleston’s Short-Term Rental Overlay. Qualification for bed-and-breakfast or short-term-rental use requires the owner to maintain the property as a primary residence.
