Luxury condominiums in Charleston, South Carolina, have attracted a diverse mix of buyers because of affordable prices.

For example, a buyer with $2.2 million may own two condominium units in a new building beside the city’s Gadsdenboro Park.

Luxury developer East West Partners and East West Real Estate, an elite luxury property broker, have been instrumental in driving sales—most notably from 2000 to 2018.

Aside from the competitive prices, more people have moved to Charleston “because they love the Lowcountry charm,” according to East West Partners managing partner Miller Harper.

Here are three luxury condominiums in Charleston that cost less than $2 million each.
