About this property

Only 3 Blocks from King | Backyard! | The Felix

Permit Number: 06252
The Space: Tucked away from the busier downtown streets, The Felix offers a peaceful retreat while keeping you close to everything Charleston has to offer. This thoughtfully updated first-floor home features two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, making it an ideal escape for a small family, couples getaway, or girls’ weekend!

Step inside to an airy, light-filled space where modern design meets historic character. Crisp white wood paneling, navy furnishings, and an open living-to-kitchen layout create a bright, welcoming atmosphere. A handcrafted wood bar provides seating for the whole group, perfect for morning coffee or evening wine after exploring King Street or strolling along The Battery.

The kitchen and living areas flow seamlessly, offering a comfortable place to unwind after a day of sightseeing. In the back of the home, you’ll find two serene bedrooms, each with a new queen bed, Smart TV, fresh linens, and its own private, newly constructed bathroom. Mini-split AC units in every room allow you to customize the temperature to your comfort.

Historic details shine throughout, with reclaimed heart pine countertops, shelving, and ceiling beams sourced from the original 170-year-old home, blending Charleston history with fresh, mid-century modern style.

Guests have exclusive access to the entire first-floor unit, driveway, and the backyard patio with outdoor dining. While the fire pit is not permitted for use per city regulations, the outdoor space is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the Lowcountry air.

The Felix was designed to feel comfortable, stylish, and timeless, offering a true Charleston stay with modern conveniences and historic soul!

Location was perfect for a wedding weekend in Charleston. Far enough away from the business of King Street but still a very short walk. Property was perfect for 2 couples to stay at. Would stay again.

We loved the neighborhood. It was quiet and an easy to walk to breakfast and close to King St for shopping, etc. Although we didn't really 'cook,' the kitchen was well equipped and we did appreciate the open floor plan. (We opted to have meals out so as to sample Charleston's fine cuisine!) Bedrooms were private and beds very comfortable. Unfortunately and due to the weather, we really weren't able to enjoy the outside deck and seating area but it sure looked private and inviting. We would definitely stay at The Felix when we visit Charleston again! PS - the host was awesome and responded to questions immediately.

Great stay!

This unit was absolutely perfect! This was a girls trip and it provided just what we needed. Plenty of room for when you want privacy, but also big enough kitchen and living room for together time. Just a few blocks off of King so we were able to have a quiet environment but also close to everything for when we wanted to walk for a coffee, dinner or shopping. The unit itself was clean and the beds were so comfortable! Easy check in and check out as well.
