About Property

Discover the one-of-a-kind charm of The Gypsy at #TheVestryOnRead, a stunning former church converted into a unique five-unit building in Columbia, South Carolina. This property is unlike anything else in the city, where every unit boasts its own distinct mood—ranging from Art Deco and Mid Century Modern to Steampunk. The Gypsy is a captivating two-story loft that blends Victorian elegance with an Alice in Wonderland spirit and the eclectic feel of an Antique Road Show, complete with wall murals, a hand-painted ceiling, and Tigerwood furniture.

Designed for groups and families, the home features a spacious layout with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, accommodating up to 8 guests. The sleeping arrangements are thoughtfully distributed: the downstairs area houses the primary bedroom with a king bed and ensuite bathroom, along with a second bedroom featuring a queen bed. Upstairs, you will find a third bedroom with two twin beds, and an additional two twin beds located in the common area.

Guests can take advantage of various thoughtfully provided features to enhance their stay:

Fast Wifi
Private driveway parking
Shared lobby area with complimentary coffee
SmartTV in the living room
Board games for family entertainment
High quality bedding
