Charleston Peninsula

American architecture, history and culture, the historic Charleston Peninsula is the gem of our city.

Welcome to Charleston Peninsula

Unmistakable in its impact on American architecture, history and culture, the historic Charleston Peninsula is the gem of our city. Dating back to the late 1600’s the city rose above the Charleston harbor where the Ashley and Cooper Rivers merge, the views from The Battery conjure beauty, but speak volumes of history. Just a stroll through the cobblestone streets provides a museum worth of architectural styles unveiling Colonial, Italianate, Georgian or Gothic Revival examples. Wrought iron and gardens galore. Rarely can you see such preserved history of America.

Widely visited and adored, the town still feels small especially during the cool weather months. Lauded for its food and unique culture and events(8-10 years atop Conde Nast and Travel + Leisure’s best city designations) provide countless reasons to own a home here. Having restored two 100+ year southern homes, Rob has an understanding of historical homes.
