The split-bedroom layout offers two spacious primary suites, each with a private bath, providing comfort and privacy for owners and guests alike.

River Street is directly across the street, while City Market, Broughton Street shopping, renowned restaurants, galleries, parks, museums, and historic landmarks are all just moments away. Leave the car behind and enjoy the ultimate downtown lifestyle. A rare convenience in the Historic District, the property includes one assigned parking space in a separately gated section of the Whitaker Street Parking Garage.
