South of Broad

The oldest blocks, the deepest porches. Single houses, walled gardens and the harbor at the end of the street. Charleston at its most photographed.

South of Broad, Charleston

The shape of the place

South of Broad is the tip of the peninsula, below Broad Street and out to the Battery. It is the Charleston that appears on the postcards: single houses turned side on to the street, piazzas catching the harbor breeze, and gardens you only glimpse through a gate.

Almost everything here sits inside the Old and Historic District, so exterior changes go through the Board of Architectural Review. That is a genuine constraint and also the reason the streetscape looks the way it does.

What you will find for sale

  • Single houses from the 1790s through the 1880s, most between 2,800 and 5,000 sq ft
  • A smaller number of Charleston double houses and Victorian infill
  • Occasional carriage house conversions, usually one or two bedrooms
  • Very few condominiums, and those that exist trade rarely
