Updated High Society Condos for sale on King

The dwellings are one- or two-bedrooms. A local businessman is the developer. Entrenched as Charleston's downtown shopping district, King Street also has been a place where building owners would fix up the upper floors for residents, often as rentals. Among those apartments was 292 King. Then in the past year, builders gutted the upper floors and converted the space into seven high-end properties for sale. The new development, on the southeast corner of Society Street, is called High Society Condominiums. "They came in and reconfigured the floor plans to make them more modern," Brad says. At the same time, "It still kept to the Charleston look." The seven units, from 760-1,134 square feet, are priced at $499,000-$775,400. They have one or two bedrooms and 1 1/2-2 1/2 baths. Depending on the unit, homeowners association dues are $330-$480 a month. The largest residence is a townhome with two bedrooms upstairs. Among the floor-plan choices are units with lofts and 20-foot ceilings. Neil Stevenson Architects headed architectural design at High Society Condos. Perks include granite countertops and high-end appliances in the kitchen, antique-style custom cabinets, Brazilian hardwood floors, crown molding and washer-dryer hookups. The units, above the Stella Nova salon, have a main entrance off Society Street, and there's also an entrance via King Street. Off-street parking has been arranged 1/2 block away.
