Edmondston-Alston House

The Greek Revival mansion commands a sweeping view of the harbor from its location on Charleston’s High Battery. Built in 1825 by merchant Charles Edmondston, Greek revival details were added in 1838 by Charles Alston, a wealthy rice planter. It is an outstanding example of a planter’s town house, and is richly appointed with original furniture, tableware and Alston’s library.
