This historic home in downtown Charleston showcases the classic details of an iconic Charleston Single home plus a perfectly walkable location close to restaurants, shops, and the trendy Upper King District. Known as the Dr. Alonzo McClennan House, circa 1840-1852, this home was the residence of Dr. Alonzo McClennan, one of the first African-American physicians in Charleston.  Dr. McClennan headed the African-American health care movement in Charleston in 1895, and in 1892 he opened the first African-American owned drugstore in Charleston. He later founded a nursing school and hospital, the McClennan-Banks Hospital located at the time at 135 Cannon Street.

The McClennan House epitomizes southern charm and has all of the little touches that make living in Charleston so special - from cozy, sun-filled rooms, to a dramatic staircase, original flooring, exposed rafters and brick fireplaces, plus a well-appointed, updated kitchen that includes marble countertops, stainless appliances and all the comforts of home. This townhome comfortably SLEEPS 4 GUESTS and features 2 Bedrooms with abundant privacy and each with its own ensuite bathroom, one located in an upstairs suite with QUEEN BED and the other located on the lower level with FULL BED. The upstairs bathroom is appointed with a tub-shower combo and oversized vanity.  In the lower level bath you’ll find a unique vanity and separate walk-in shower. 

Located just a few short blocks from some of Charleston’s top destinations, you won’t find a more central place to call home while exploring King Street, Marion Square, and the nearby Cannonborough-Elliotborough neighborhood. This truly is the perfect blend of comfort and character, with new fixtures and appliances mixed beautifully with loads of historic details. This classic charmer includes stacked washer/dryer, shared outdoor space on elegant double piazzas, a private entrance for the downstairs bedroom, and off-street parking for 2 cars.

Two umbrellas are included for your convenience to use throughout your stay.
