The Nest Above is a historic downtown Seneca property originally built in 1898 and thoughtfully repurposed in 2021 into four beautifully designed loft-style short-term rentals. Located just steps from Ram Cat Alley, guests can walk to restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and nightlife while enjoying the charm of one of Seneca’s most established buildings. Clemson University is only a short drive away, making the property ideal for football weekends, graduation, and campus events.
The building blends original architectural character with modern comfort. Exposed brick walls, hardwood floors, and oversized windows highlight its late-19th-century roots, while updated kitchens, bathrooms, and contemporary finishes provide today’s conveniences.
The Nest Above consists of four separate lofts, each uniquely styled but consistent in quality and comfort. Every unit features a full kitchen, living area, bedroom space, and private bathroom, offering guests both independence and a welcoming atmosphere. Natural light fills the interiors during the day, and warm textures create a cozy setting in the evenings.
Rich in history yet designed for modern stays, The Nest Above offers a distinctive downtown experience that combines location, character, and comfort in one thoughtfully restored property.
