85 Cumberland Street: French Quarter Pied-a-Terre

If you’re looking for an escape in the heart of downtown Charleston, take a look at 85 Cumberland Street Unit #6.  Nestled in the historic French Quarter, this charming pied-a-terre is perfect for a second home, weekend residence or small urban abode.  Despite its size, the unit is filled with high-end features that are sure to impress including stainless steel appliances, crown molding, hardwood flooring throughout, oversized windows and exposed brick walls.

The gourmet kitchen adjoins the living room and is flooded with natural light from a large window overlooking Cumberland Street.  Granite counters, a sub-zero fridge, breakfast bar and rich wood cabinets are some of the highlights and the exposed brick wall in the living room adds a sense of historic charm and warmth to the space.

The bedroom is accessible from the living room and its tall, eleven-foot ceilings make it seem light and airy.  An exposed brick wall lends character to the bedroom and there is an ample-sized closet with built-in shelving.  Also in the bedroom are washer and dryer hook-ups—located in a small alcove for convenience and privacy.  The contemporary bathroom has updated fixtures as well as tile flooring and a tiled tub/shower combo.

The unit is located on the first floor of 85 Cumberland Street—a secured access building with several condo units.  A light-filled foyer greets you as you enter the building and elegantly appointed hallways have tile and hardwood flooring as well as exposed brick walls and wainscoting.  One of the best features is definitely the location!  From your front door, you can walk less than a block and be surrounded by world-class restaurants and bars.  Walk to Waterfront Park for an afternoon picnic on the harbor or head to King Street for an amazing shopping experience.  Market Street, award-winning restaurants, theaters, museums, shops, parks and more are all within walking distance so you can enjoy all this historic city has to offer!
