The Oldest Home in Charleston, South Carolina 

As a Navy bride, moving to Charleston was an adventure. I fell in love with the architecture, gardens and decors. They impacted my style for my lifetime.

I've grown up and lived in the Charleston area for many years. If you love history, architecture, good food, Charleston is the city to visit

The gardens are spectacular! The quality and detail of these historic homes in Charleston is pricelss! Loved imagining living there!

Great RU-vid, Drew. My grandfather's (large) family -- on the Stender side -- lived in that house for three generations from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, after arriving from Germany around 1848. What's now the large, fabulous garden was the large, pedestrian home of their chickens, roosters, goats, cows and horses. Jock Stender

Thanks for the great tour. Would love to see a presentation of the gardens in all four seasons. Also a few more brief biographies and stories of folks who have lived and stayed there.

I think this home is just beautiful! I just had D R Horton build me a new homes in Huger SC, but I want to see this home in person, it really is stunning! Thanks for the video!

Merci pour la visite!

Very well kept and light and bright inside. Too cute.

Love beautiful gardens!

History is a beautiful thing and here is proof. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 🌴⚓🌴

Those gardens! Gorgeous home

Beyond beautiful

Beautiful thanks

I’d like to have seen some of the bedrooms.

Was this property at one point in time a plantation house? It sure does look like it.

Incredible home

Thank you

Que linda casa!

there is an MLS. listing for a home built in 1680 which supersedes this house as the. actual oldest home in Charleston.

biuteful home😍😍😍

My family the parris family owned it from 1789-1986

Why are families selling out these old homes? Or are they all owned by speculators?

I love history & boy do you get it here in Charleston, you said that this is the oldest house, I thought the pink house was the oldest house? Not to worry either way I absolutely love how they use to build their houses in those days, so much history attached to them you could imagine the people who use to live in these places still doing their house duties around the house!

I'm looking for a place like this to purchase please send some my way thanks.

i didnt enjoy it , because you did not show the kitchen and other rooms , it was not a tour

The house is lovely and the tour is very interesting. But the MUSIC for this video is awful! Much too loud, too busy, too up-tempo = distracting and annoying. The music competes with the narrator and the camerawork instead of enhancing them.

Someone needs to feed that horse

Gardens are lacking a good landscaper and flowers

I wonder if they would let "just anybody" with six million dollars laying around purchase this home....🤔

No place to land my helicopter?

Pink house is the oldest....

Not the oldest house in Charleston

.....and your Point Is???

March 3, 2019: Thank you for the tour! Slavery has existed for centuries on every continent, not just Africa! P.S. There were educated and successful black people who became university professors in the 1950s and 60s! Perhaps some feel they didn't do enough for their black brothers and sisters? (Too many live with a 'chip' on their shoulder!) My dad's family was an embarrassment, but my mother came from a large family with loving parents, brothers, sisters, a host of relatives and many comforts. Of course, many resented their happiness which is rooted in envy and malice! A black family recently moved in next door, and they are loud and obnoxious. If the state of Virginia is their turf, I trust that God will move me away at the proper time.

Passing through, we spent a couple of days Charleston. Impressions: dirty, locals looks unfriendly, dissatisfied with their lives people or provincial drug addicts and alcoholics. Trashy area, road full of water, smells like swamp and garbage. Car parking - 25 cents in 12 minutes! I’ll never go there again.

Ridiculous priced

Enjoyed the video. I miss Charleston.WOW!!!! What PERFUNCLORY comments below. lol Don't eat rice. What? lol Homes built by slaves. No, not all the homes were built by slaves. lol Only the POORLY CONSTRUCTED ones. Which those homes no-longer stand. lol Moreover, slaves were sold in Africa by their OWN PEOPLE as UNDESIRABLES, and to not only white people. Do your home-work. I'm POSITIVE the slaves had much better lives and later opportunities than they would have back in Africa. lol ugh!!! Do your home-work. I'll put your perfunctory comments about rice and building of homes by slaves to bed. It's all in the past. Move on. January 31, 1865 was a 154 years ago.

Corrupt Marketing & Fraud

Back when labour was free.

Why does this man sound like he has a mouthful of peanut butter. I was able to recognize about 2 words in each sentence. Im not referring to his southern accent. Spit that cud out sir, damn!

My people were raped, tortured and murdered while building these homes that you hold in such high esteem

you can really feel the barbarous slavery that went into this home

I think it should be torn down because it represents slavery. I'M JUST KIDDING

What are you doing to help the orphans in Africa? Millions and millions whose parents have died with aids.
