Live on Historic King Street

2- and 3-Bedroom Apartments for
rent in Charleston, South Carolina

A Building With a Story Worth Living In

1000 King isn’t just an address on one of Charleston’s most storied streets — it’s a building with more than 125 years of history behind it. Known historically as Charleston County Hall, it became one of the city’s most celebrated entertainment venues, drawing performances and appearances from James Brown, Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Wonder, and Oprah Winfrey. Wrestling legends including Hulk Hogan, Andre the Giant, and Ric Flair headlined events here, and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. spoke on this site. The history greets you at the entrance in the form of an original mural created by local Redux Art Center artist, Taylor Faulkner.

Inside, you’ll find thoughtfully renovated 2- and 3-bedroom apartments in Charleston, SC, ranging from 850 to 1,100 sq ft with ceilings up to 10 feet. Located at 1000 King Street, two blocks from Hampton Park and steps from Upper King Street, MUSC, and the College of Charleston, these homes make downtown living genuinely attainable, with room to settle in, split with roommates if it makes sense, and still have change left over at the end of the month.

Renovated Throughout,
With Character Built Right In

Walk in and you’ll find stainless steel kitchens, updated countertops, ceiling fans, and fresh lighting in every room. The exposed brick walls have been here since the building’s earliest days, and they’re not going anywhere — they’re part of what makes 1000 King look like itself and nothing else. On-site laundry accepts card or app payment, and free parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis right on-site.

Hampton Park
Is Two Blocks Away

Two blocks west is Hampton Park, Charleston’s largest green space — walking paths, open lawns, and an easy pace that makes a complete break from the city feel like a short stroll. To the south, Upper King Street stretches out with restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, and the kind of social scene that takes months to fully explore. MUSC and the College of Charleston are both minutes away, and the Lowcountry Lowline trail connects the neighborhood to the rest of the peninsula.
