"The Cookhouse", Historic Garden District Apt.

A luxury stay in a piece of history, The Cookhouse is a romantic and elegant option located in Charleston’s Garden District near Wragg Mall and its live oaks and fountain, the Charleston Museum, the Visitors’ Center, Marion Square, two historic mansions open to the public (the Aiken-Rhett and Joseph Manigault Houses), and the nationally-recognized cuisine/entertainment district on Upper King. Within walking distance are the King Street shopping area and antiques district, and the City Market.

The spacious professionally-decorated ground-floor 1br/1ba Cookhouse unit accommodates up to four people. The unit has a queen reproduction historic rice bed, two large non-working fireplaces (the original kitchen and laundry rooms to the main house), accent antiques, a spacious bathroom with marble-tiled shower, and a fully-equipped kitchen/sitting room with eating area and full-sized sofa bed. The Cookhouse boasts a professionally-designed patio and garden and has off-street parking for 1-2 cars.

Charleston is full of history, charm and wonderful hospitality. The Cookhouse allows you easy access to beaches (15 minutes), historic river plantations (20 minutes), the South Carolina Aquarium, excellent, diverse cuisine, and allows you to just relax, read, nibble, and imbibe your favorite beverages in the shared garden.

Illustrated in Bernard Herman’s Townhouse: Architecture and Material Life in the Early American City 1780-1830 circa 2005, the Cookhouse was recently tastefully restored following the award-winning restoration of the main John Robinson House, a historically significant Federal double house (1814) constructed by the wealthy merchant who later built the adjacent urban plantation now known as the Aiken-Rhett House. There is an interesting article with several pictures on the Cookhouse restoration in Period Homes magazine (Vol. 14, No. 6, Nov. 2013), a copy of which is available in the Cookhouse.

Please note that The Cookhouse is a duplex structure located behind the main home. This listing is for the ground-floor 1br/1ba unit and there is also a second floor 1br/1ba unit above. The units are completely separate with their own private entrances and share no interior spaces. Also note that while The Cookhouse can accommodate a maximum of 4 guests, the second bed is a full-sized sofa bed in the living area.

Guests have access to the entire ground floor 1br/1ba unit, the shared backyard/patio, and the shared parking area in the rear of the home.

The home is managed locally by Southern Charmed Hospitality Group so someone is always available if any issues or concerns arise.

Please always reach out through the app first for any questions unless in case of dire emergency.
