About this property

Ruby Bell's Apartment In A Unique Home In The Heart Of Downtown Charleston

Ruby Bell's is a hidden gem nestled on Society Street with double front porches and a huge magical tree in the front courtyard! A white picket fence marks the address adding ambiance and privacy to the double porches. As you walk to the end of the hallway, you will unlock the door leading passed a reading nook with a love seat tucked away at the bottom of the staircase. At the top and to the right you'll see room No. 4 with two queen beds and a fireplace.

The large windows and elegant blue ceiling give this room a calming ambience. Next door there's a marbled floor bathroom with 1920's patina clawfoot tub to soak or shower. This lovely bathroom is perfect for primping at the large vanity and vintage stool. Room No. 2 has twin beds and an exposed brick wall to ceiling fireplace, bringing warmth into this welcoming room for two.

Both of these rooms have access to the enclosed porch that travels the length of the building with a bench to sit and relax. Take the back door down to the garden but be careful on the outdoor stairway. To the left side of the staircase you will find a room to gather in with a galley kitchen featuring a full size fridge, retro apartment stove, dishwasher, and open shelving nestled on the exposed brick original to the home.

There's bar seating around an industrial island, perfect for entertaining as the kitchen opens into a comfortable den with another fireplace. Through the french doors you'll find the largest and most elegant bedroom in the house. A king bed with a velvet settee at the foot, facing a fireplace. This room boasts storage for a long stay in the chifforobe and a lovely vanity. Glass doors open up onto a sleeping porch overlooking Society st. perfect for afternoon naps or enjoying Charleston's breezy evenings and the smell of magnolias.

You'll find everything you need to relax and feel at home. Ruby Bell's apartment has been thoughtfully furnished with eclectic vintage pieces, funky artwork, and a collective of plants in neat pots throughout this home adding to this perfect Charleston getaway.

Mini Reunion -- Class of 67
Here are comments from four of us over-65 women who shared the spacious Ruby Bell’s Apartment. Terrific location: Easy to get to everything whether walking or using free CARTA buses and Uber. Eclectic artwork was so interesting and added to the character of the house. We loved the verandah for sitting, talking and enjoying coffee in the morning and wine in the afternoon. We appreciated the refrigerated bottled water and the very comfortable beds. Charleston is such a foodie city, and we especially loved having Christophe Chocolatier and Patisserie a few doors away. We would return to Hank’s Seafood (walking distance), Lewis Barbecue (Uber ride), and 82 Queen (walking distance). Minor drawbacks: 1) didn’t get check-in info until a couple hours before fixed 4:00 PM check-in time; 2) water closet in kitchen area with bathtub in master bedroom -- but we showered in the lovely modern full bathroom.

Seniors first visit to Charleston
Ginger’s place was wonderful, a true quintessential Charleston experience. It was nice and roomy for 3 couples with comfy beds for a good nights sleep after our busy days exploring this beautiful historic city. We loved the antique furnishings and art work and the covered outdoor porch. The shower was the best we’ve ever been in, wish I had it at home! It is also in a great location, we walked everywhere! Thank you Ginger!

Location, location, location!
This apartment was located right in the middle of the historic district in Charleston. Our group was able to walk everywhere, except for a visit to a plantation and to/from the airport. We found all kinds of restaurants, coffee places, a Target, ice cream and candy stores, the City Market and all kinds of shopping. It was in a wonderful location and the host was very responsive to our questions and needs. I would highly recommend it.

What makes this property unique

Perfect soft sheets, having the right tools in the kitchen, plants scattered around the house to make it your home away from home. I like to provide special groceries in the fridge upon request. Beautiful glass jars filled with provisions and beauty supplies for unique amenities.
