- We're touring the oldest home in Charleston, South Carolina. Built in 1712, the home has sen the city grow around it. It's filled with gorgeous intricate details and with one of the largest private gardens in the city it truly is an urban retreat.

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
It is 308 years old
This is true! My wife and I visited Charleston this past summer and loved it! We plan to come back!
Great TH-cam, 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.

T C 😉💯
Bet he had some beautiful flower gardens too!
The gardens are spectacular! The quality and detail of these historic homes in Charleston is pricelss! Loved imagining living 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!
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.
History is a beautiful thing and here is proof. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 🌴⚓🌴
Very well kept and light and bright inside. Too cute.
Beautiful thanks
Was this property at one point in time a plantation house? It sure does look like it.
there is an MLS. listing for a home built in 1680 which supersedes this house as the. actual oldest home in Charleston.
its called the pink house
The Pink House. Yes.
Probably slavery there too ,awful
Slavery existed. History. Fact. Move on. Thoughts enslave you! There are things to do. Not rioting, burning. Help a neighbor, be a friend, speak kindly, live wholesomely, share your life positively. Make the new year better in your corner of the world!
@@debraabbadessa897 well the entire world had slavery, abolishing it started first in the United States
I’d like to have seen some of the bedrooms.
Those gardens! Gorgeous home
Thank you
Love beautiful gardens!
Incredible home
Beyond beautiful
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?
Que linda casa!
biuteful home😍😍😍
no it was plain , simple and basic Patricia A. From Southern Charm has a lovely home
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!
Yea "history"....
👍👍
i didnt enjoy it , because you did not show the kitchen and other rooms , it was not a tour
He was above that sadly
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.
My has a spiral spiral staircase
I'm looking for a place like this to purchase please send some my way thanks.
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....🤔
Chris Arroyo yes. We like money here. No one gives a shit about your skin color. So long as the check clears...
No place to land my helicopter?

Not the oldest house in Charleston
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.
Thank it suck here I moved but I'm leaving soon I hate it here
I had a friend who loved it there in mount pleasant . I think Charleston is one of those places where the side of town you are on makes all the difference......and how much money. But she did remark that in the last 15 years people have gotten more hurried and edgy. She attributed it to the heavy tourism.
Pink house is the oldest....
Robert Delgado yep. My moms friend was apart of the pink house
oldest house home is the people who dwell in a hause.......
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.
Lady, you have issues. You don't feel the chip you have on your shoulders? The energy permeates from this post. God bless the people who have to be around you.
Fuck you! I hope you burn in hell! How’s that?
Your mind is rambling. This is about a gorgeous home that still exists and someone is lucky enough to own it.
.....and your Point Is???

Daryl REPLIES love Tina mary mrs Tina REPLIES meet Eovnne WEEK GLEN Mike never look
Ridiculous priced
Back when labour was free.
Nah, we still had to buy the workers...
Alex K. Yep 😐
Craftsmanship is never free. Since these huge places were like mini villages I wonder how long it took to begin training... ..because all of these are of European design. And then the training would have to be passed down....had to be a system and it must have taken years to get homegrown craftmanship. They were all far more invested in the welfare of the 'farm ' and very interdependent and close. That's one thing we dont appreciate nowadays
.
My people were raped, tortured and murdered while building these homes that you hold in such high esteem
Just because some group of people in some time period before wasn’t perfect and committed horrible acts it doesn’t mean that these couldn’t produce glorious things. And not all rich southerners were abusive to their slaves and some treated their slaves relatively well. Also, don’t be so arrogant and self righteous to think that if you were in their time period and their position you wouldn’t do even worse things. So get out of here with your self righteous negativity and let us enjoy some nice architecture. We’re not celebrating slavery and rape, were celebrating good parts of a past culture
@@andrewwizard1577 my people don't have that luxury, because we still feel the effects of that time period till this day
@@andrewwizard1577 did you really write "treated the slaves relatively well"?! Wow.... Chris Rock said it the best... America is like the uncle who molested you, but paid your way through college...
@@boox130 you gotta take that up with the African tribe that sold your people to the white man. Africans built their kingdoms from selling out their own people.
you can really feel the barbarous slavery that went into this home
Waaaa!!!
The Barbary slave trade was when Europeans were enslaved my Muslims and Moors, then taken to Northern Africa...
You had to have a Avery skilled crew to erect those European designs and finishings . And you're not going to be able to just use brute force to get people to do that. They have to be taught, get experience, probably be able to read blueprints and plans and know some reading and math. Today it's easier to force people into labor where they have no skills because of automation . Skills are more narrow and robotic. But producing this kind of work on your own or in a small community of people requires alot more expertise by everyone . You won't whip someone into making a well fitting dovetail joint.
@@deborahdean8867 So precisely stated, Deborah. Well done. You captured my thought that I could not have articulated half so well.
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.
So sorry to tell u thats a lie black people built everything the white man ever had if u People feel that way about us why did you bring us here on the first place oh yea cause you people are too lazy and too stupid and evil to do it for yourself and yall got the nerve to talk
Yes they would've been making pyramids... Do your homework on that...
@@TC-nm3hh well I'm sure any laborers would have to be trained. That might have happened in time as most if the plantation types were small villages until themselves. After emancipation the ones who had the most problems were the farm laborers because all they could do is small sharecropping. I've often wondered how they went about training slaves in european skills. It had to take years, knowledge of the language, and then father to son to keep going? There was far more closeness and interdependence going on than we perceive today
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!
Its a mild speech impediment. Nice.
I don’t know either lol 😆 how are you doing with your family I hope you’re safe from the virus?
I think it should be torn down because it represents slavery. I'M JUST KIDDING
Daryl REPLIES Love Tina God Christian Ring Eovnne Daryl REPLIES
What are you doing to help the orphans in Africa? Millions and millions whose parents have died with aids.
Might be more productive if you stated what you are doing.
