201 Ashley Avenue, Charleston, SC 29403

The Ashley Inn is a fully restored historic property originally constructed in 1852 as a Greek Revival Charleston Single House. The main residence features seven ensuite guest rooms and keeps original architectural details such as heart pine floors, intricate millwork, oversized pocket doors, and soaring ceilings. Signature double piazzas extend the full length of the home and provide shaded outdoor space overlooking the historic streetscape. A distinctive Speakeasy Suite is also featured, created from a historic underground cistern and designed as a private lounge for guests. A separate carriage house adds two bedrooms and two baths, operating as a legal, active short-term rental with its own living spaces and amenities.

The property is located in downtown Charleston at 201 Ashley Avenue, with access that supports guest stays. The remarks note rare onsite parking, which can be an important consideration for lodging uses in a walkable urban setting. Guests are described as being within walking distance of restaurants, shopping districts, museums, medical centers, and historic attractions.

This offering is best suited to an operator seeking a turnkey boutique lodging platform within a restored historic asset. The combination of the main inn and an additional legal short-term rental carriage house creates practical flexibility for continued hospitality operations, owner occupancy, or additional rental use. The property is also presented as having value-add possibilities, such as adding a pool, if aligned with the buyer’s plan.
