Relatively modest home prices, flooding risk
Radcliffeborough’s median sale price is about $880,000, which is lower than the median in other downtown neighborhoods, like the French Quarter and Charleston City Market. Boat slips and off-street parking spaces can sell for between $30,000 and $160,000. Condos and townhomes typically start around $380,000 and rise to about $740,000, depending on size and view. Standalone single- and multifamily homes usually run anywhere from $745,000 to $1.7 million. Large, historic homes range from $1.8 million to $4.5 million.
Realtor Mary Lou Wertz of Maison Real Estate, a longtime Charleston local with over 10 years of real estate experience, says Radcliffeborough is a little newer than other parts of downtown. “You can find a little hidden gem, but for the most part, those houses are newer.” Some of the Colonial Revivals and Charleston single-style homes were built before 1900, but most of the Contemporary townhomes and mid-rise condo buildings were built between the 1980s and early 2000s.
The Ashley River is prone to flooding, and the risk of high water and wind damage is higher during hurricane season.

Walkable, with access to parking and public transit access
Radcliffeborough homeowners and renters are eligible for up to two digital parking permits per household, since the neighborhood is one of several Charleston Peninsula Residential Parking Districts. Even so, street parking is limited. “There is not a lot of street parking, and people usually avoid driving around here,” says Chloe Doyle, a College of Charleston student and administrative assistant at 61 Vandy Apartments. She says people usually walk or bike instead. Public transportation is also an option, with Charleston Area Regional Transportation Authority bus stops on Calhoun Street and other main roads in and around the neighborhood.
