Eastside

Charleston, South Carolina Homes for Sale

Eastside has undergone some major transformations over the last few years. The beauty of the neighborhood is matched by the kindness of neighbors who laid their claim to the area long ago, but you’ll notice movement as people come to renovate and later re-sell their Eastside abode. Consider living on one of the side streets here and enjoy the continued growth of the area.

Median sale prices in Eastside climb steadily as more and more renovations are completed. You can still snag a fixer-upper for less than in neighborhoods further south, but Eastside also attracts high-end buyers looking for a home with plenty of space.

Though surrounded by culinary delights, Eastside has a neighborhood standout all its own in the form of Tu. Sourcing much of their menu from local farms and vendors, Tu’s cuisine is “inspired by nostalgia, comfort food, and flavors from all over the world.” Their diverse menu changes frequently to give patrons a fun, memorable experience.

Eastside is growing fast. You’ll see construction, new neighbors, and new venues cropping up rather frequently. This neighborhood is near the Charleston Visitor’s Center and the South Carolina Aquarium, so expect to occasionally spot a lost tourist as well. College of Charleston students also abound in the area due to its low-cost rental homes.

There is a lot of fun to be had in Eastside. Whether cooking out in the neighborhood, heading downtown, or going out on Bay Street, you’re sure to find something fun to do in the neighborhood. For a good old-fashioned Charleston night out, head to Rappahannock for some oysters and drinks with friends. The Commodore is another great venue for live music and a fun night out.

Grab your helmet and head to the Cooper River Bridge Pedestrian and Bike Path for incredible views, a sturdy workout, and a sense of accomplishment. For lunch, grab a hearty sandwich at Eastside Bagel.

CARTA (Charleston Area Regional Transportation Authority) is always an option, but so is walking or biking in this area. Buses carry passengers from Charleston Visitor Center to Charleston International Airport in less than an hour. Some residents get around by car, though one-lane streets and narrow roads can make this difficult.
