RENTED - Charming Uptown Cottage for Rent

241 W Poplar is right is just a block from the Ashley River and near a local community park. Hampton Park, one of Charleston's most eminent parks located next to The Citadel, is very close by. This gorgeous park dates from 1769 as part of the Grove Plantation. It morphed many times from plantation to a race course (1835), to a Union Prisoner of War camp, to a Trade Exposition site which Theodore Roosevelt visited, to a park again redesigned by the son in law of Frederick Law Olmstead who designed Central Park in New York City. Quite a fun history!

Back to this cute cottage with 3 BR and 2 BA and completely renovated. The MBR is huge (13X17) with a private entrance, perfect for roomates. 9' ceilings give the bedroom a grandiose feel for a charming cottage. The yard is professionally landscaped with a storage shed. There are lots of young couples in the neighborhood, so if renting is on your agenda, this is certainly one to look at.
