North Central Downtown Charleston

Homes in North Central

North Central is one of the more affordable Downtown Charleston neighborhoods. The neighborhood is bordered on the north by Mount Pleasant Street, the south by Rutledge Ave, the east by Congress St. and on the west by I26 and Meeting Street.  The homes here are mostly Freedman Cottages and Craftsman Style Bungalows, built from the 30s to the 50s. Popular with local families, young professionals, students and artists given its location on the Charleston Peninsula.

North Central Tip: Commuters from North Central have an advantage when it comes to traffic patterns and commute time. Since most traffic during morning rush hour is coming in to Charleston, commuting out is easy! And in the afternoon, the bulk of the traffic is flowing out of Charleston. So coming back into town at the end of the day won’t be nearly as bad as commuting from other locations.

North Central Lifestyle

Park Cafe

Here you’ll find a mix of corner stores to fashionable restaurants like Taco Boy and the Charleston Coffee Roasters. Other favorites include the Rutledge Cab Co., Park Cafe, and Rodney Scott’s BBQ. Additionally, being near Upper King, the vibrant NOMO area make the neighborhood an exciting place to live and play.
