Met by the meandering waters of Wappoo Creek, the small residential neighborhood of Byrnes Downs is a bungalow haven deep within Charleston's West Ashley district.

Cozy is a fitting term here. The midcentury bungalows are situated under lines of trees, adding idyllic flair even in front yards. Many homes are adorned with small front porches and fenced-in backyards, which create a comfortable streetscape. Smaller lots are common for single-story homes here, but amid the many bungalows, you'll find some two-story homes scattered throughout Byrnes Downs.

The outdoors of West Ashley are a big draw, and residents can enjoy parks and trails nearby. At the top of the list, the West Ashley Greenway cuts through the heart of the area. The paved path extends across several neighborhoods, highlighting the scenic backyards of the district.

Just a mile north of the neighborhood is Ackerman Park. Take advantage of its multiuse sports fields as well as the popular skate park. The park also hosts the West Ashley Farmers Market, open on Wednesdays from April through November and bursting with fresh produce.

Bound by Highway 17 to its north, Byrnes Downs has numerous retail and dining options that are within walking distance. Head to The Roost Bar N’ Grille for a drink and good food. And for a more refined break, Avondale Wine & Cheese Bar offers an extensive wine list and cheese plates.

There’s both a Harris Teeter and Whole Foods Market available less than a mile away for a grocery run.

And Byrnes Downs is just a short drive to the heart of Charleston.
