About this apartment rental
*Please Note Our Captain's Quarters Suite Is Available For Stays Of 28 Days Or Longer*
Located centrally, just steps from the heart of old Charlottetown, our legal luxury triplex is a former traditional centre-hall shingled house (originally built circa 1880) nestled on a professionally designed recently landscaped lot gently shaded by a stately century-old white ash tree.
Situated on the second level, with its original centre hall private entrance opening formally to the street, our 'Sailor's Suite' retains authentic vintage detail dating back to the late 1880s when the house was originally constructed. With the patina of old wood floors, wide baseboards, original mill-work window surrounds, beadboard trim and hand-crafted panel doors, this suite has been thoughtfully and sensitively renovated to respect the integrity of the beloved family home it once was, while offering all manner of contemporary comforts including luxury appointments and furnishings.
From the gracious foyer up the vintage staircase, the suite’s rooms radiate off the centre hall. Having a split bedroom plan, each sleeping sanctuary offers ample proportions and high ceilings, with the rear bedroom opening to a covered porch which overlooks the landscaped garden. The separate living room can be converted into a third bedroom as required, and the enchanting renovated kitchen boasts a sun-drenched balcony perfect for morning coffee or barbecuing. This endearing suite has that special patina unique to a well-loved vintage home, with all the laid-back comfort of a country-escape. That it’s within steps to the heart of Old Charlottetown makes it magical!
The property is situated on Upper Hillsborough Street, and is a brief ten-minute walk to Charlottetown Harbour, and the shops and restaurants of Water Street, Peakes Quay, Queen Street and Victoria Row. It's a few blocks to historic Great George Street and Province House, and an easy stroll to the waterfront boardwalk of 100+ acre Victoria Park with it's walking trails, sport fields, tennis courts and outdoor swimming pool. And we can't resist recommending our favorite independent coffee location, Receiver Coffee, on Water Street!

Our stay at The Black House (2nd floor suite) went beyond our expectations. We were incredibly impressed with the attention to detail - the team thought of everything we could need to make our stay comfortable (and it really looks just as pretty as it does in the pictures!). We arrived quite late at night and were pleasantly surprised to find the fridge stocked so that we wouldn't have to go out for breakfast first thing the next day - a great start to a great stay. The location is only a few minutes' walk to the main shopping/entertainment area in Charlottetown so it was nice not to have to drive there and worry about parking. The gorgeous back balcony gets a little buggy at dusk, so perhaps bring a little bug spray, but we weren't too bothered and spent loads of time there reading, eating, and playing cards.
Would definitely recommend staying here, and we look forward to returning one day!

The second floor suite of The Black House is at once elegant and cozy, luxurious and full of Island charm. Every artful and practical detail in the suite has been meticulously taken care of, making our stay effortless and refreshing. Not only is the decor exceptionally beautiful, but also comfortable and welcoming.
In fact, we liked The Black House so much that we found ourselves anticipating rainy days so we could cuddle up in its cozy corners and cook in its fabulously equipped kitchen! This was a delightful and inspiring place to come home to during our stay in Charlottetown.
