21 East Battery Bed and Breakfast
Map
Location: City/Urban, Waterfront and Historic Downtown Charleston.
Historic Interest
21 East Battery was built in 1825, one of the first dwellings constructed along the High Battery, during the tenure of the property's first owner, Charles Edmondston. Later, in 1838, second-owner Charles Alston extensively remodeled the house, adding significant Greek Revival details. The rear dependency originally served as a stable and livery for the wealthy rice planter's fine horses and handsome town carriages. The quarters once housed the servants who helped make 21 East Battery one of the city's showplaces of style and gracious entertaining. Today, the property once again welcomes visitors to the city where hospitality has always been an art.

Innkeeper Note
A Charleston carriage house and quarters revisited. This privately-owned bed and breakfast is nestled within the urban compound of Charleston's historic 1825 Edmondston-Alston House, one of the first dwellings constructed along the High Battery facing Charleston Harbor. Here, in what were once the stables, carriage house and slave quarters, is a sequestered guest lodging newly refurbished for discerning visitors to Charleston. Every amenity has been attended to, including a kitchen pre-stocked with fresh pastries, fruit and juices, plus a gourmet breakfast. Guests at 21 East Battery Bed and Breakfast enjoy off-street parking and a personal welcome from the knowledgeable resident manager eager to make their stay a delight. The roomy interiors of the carriage house have original beamed ceilings, heart-pine floors and a second-floor balcony with a view of the Charleston Harbor. Furnishings include attractive antiques as well as comfortable couches and luxury bedding for a restful Charleston stay. It is an ideal accommodation for couples celebrating a special occasion or for traveling families. The separate two-story quarters have two bedrooms, two baths, interesting period antiques and a cozy downstairs fireplace.

A stroll along the seawall to beautiful White Point Gardens offers dramatic views of Ft. Sumter and the glistening waters of historic Charleston Harbor.
