East End Homes for Rent

East End in Charleston is a historic neighborhood known for its architectural charm and proximity to the Kanawha River. The East End Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, features around 400 homes and buildings in styles such as Queen Anne, Greek Revival, Colonial Revival, Tudor Revival, Foursquare, and bungalows. These structures, mostly built between the late 19th century and the 1920s, often sit on elevated lots with steps leading up from the sidewalk. The neighborhood's sidewalks connect to the city's riverfront walkway along Kanawha Boulevard. East End Community Park offers an outdoor gym and picnic tables, while Laidley Field and Haddad River Front Park provide recreational and event spaces. Haddad River Front Park, with its amphitheater, hosts free concerts every Friday from Memorial Day to Labor Day. U.S. Route 60 runs through East End, offering shopping and dining options like Main Kwong Chinese Restaurant and East End Pub. Capitol Market, located just west of the neighborhood, is a popular spot for fresh produce and local goods. The area is well-connected with bus stops along Washington, Virginia, and Quarrier Streets, and the West Virginia International Yeager Airport is 3.5 miles away. However, East End has a flood risk due to its proximity to the Kanawha River. The Kanawha County School District serves the area, but the local schools have average ratings.
