Historic Houses
The City of Charleston has a rich history, and what better way to immerse yourself in our stellar location than by living in one of our historic homes? Historic houses are another type of “residence hall,” typically for upperclassmen who are looking for a unique community. Each bedroom is furnished - just like a traditional residence hall (bed, desk, desk chair, dresser and either wardrobe or closet). Every house has access to free laundry. Each house has a different layout, which you can see during the room-selection process. Some houses have full kitchens and shared living spaces. Please visit the Residence Halls page for housing rates.
