I remember when this house was being redone . I would drive to town as walk after my husband died and I always wondered how pretty it was inside . When you’re an immigrant with no family around and you have little money walking around gives you something free and enjoyable to do . Living vicariously through others . So happy to see how it turned out .
This is immensely enjoyable. Firstly, let me say that it is fabulous to listen to someone who is knowledgable and sounds normal. So many home tours have high-pitched, hyped up homeowners talking a mile-a-minute who are difficult to listen to; or every other word is "um". Ceara Donnelly is articulate and has my utmost admiration. That said, she is also a talented designer. She gets the WHY of design: it's about the people, the memories, the safe haven, the joy. Thank you for this Ceara Donnelly and Shumacher. Especially at Christmas it is nice to have some substance and depth being shared.
I agree that sometimes I have to click away from a video even if the house is beautiful...because the fake screechy valley-girl-sounding voices of the grown women are a big no-can-do for me.
This is one of my fave decor videos out there. The designer is low key and matter of fact about her loves and uses of color and “things.” No annoying voice uptick that so many of these video hostesses use. Just non pretentious and beautiful about showing her space and sharing with the community. Love it! ❤
I’ve lived in Charleston for 18 years but have never seen the inside of one of the historic homes in downtown Charleston! You blew my expectations! Wonderful
Traditional yet modern and funky I love it! And what I love even more is your homage to what home means ...you are so on point . I used to be a social worker and so many destructive patterns of behavior culminate because of the problems that people had growing up in their homes and so I like how you linked design , ambiance and home life .how you can nurture ,find balance and create a solid foundation and stability for your kids.
Absolutely. We need to bring back society to a time when homes were the center of the universe for families. No matter how big or small, a house can become the most inportant place for children and adults alike when we make beauty and comfort more of a priority.
What she has done with her home is visual poetry. It has the sophistication and the glamor of a show house, but it also has the warmth and the character that is seldom present in show houses. I don't know how she accomplished such magic, but it is a stunning achievement that can be enjoyed for many years to come because of this video. Thanks for sharing this beautiful home.
Absolutely beautiful. Nothing is too precious. The cats and dogs are right at home. I loved the garland over the entry way. I live in South Carolina and this home represents the state well.
@Fatima M, your comment resonated with me. My parents' home welcomed many people, some from other countries, at our table, particularly at Thanksgiving. They wanted people to know who we were as Americans, as well as Christians. My parents are gone, and I have found myself with no husband, no children or family. Close friends moved away for other opportunities. People know I am alone but there have been no invitations to their happy, bright, Thanksgiving tables, full of joy & laughter, as ours once was. I dread the holidays now. At least I have my memories & a roof over my head. Take care.
@@twistoffate4791 I'm so sorry to hear that. Perhaps you could reach out to other single people in similar situations and host a party of your own at your home. It could be the start of a new tradition.
@@twistoffate4791I know I am 8 months late but I hope one day you will be able to continue this tradition with the people you love. Wishing the best to you in life and love! The world around you will open up your heart if you let it 🤍
I am from South Carolina, my grandfather was from Charleston originally. Charleston is so beautiful and an amazing place to live 🥰. One day I will build a home there so I love this video and her home !
I have watched this video over 20 times and each time I love it. She has an incredible taste elegant yet confortable. I am jealous i wish I could afford her to do my home
What a caring and thoughtful mother this Lady is. She is so right to create happy memories! This time never comes back. And the house is beautiful😊 May there be many years of happiness for all of them- the cats and dogs too. God bless🍀
Such a stunning woman and designer! I'm glad I found her, I've never before seen her so far I remember. Thank you for the treat! This is a perfect holiday content 🌟
Having been a visitor to Charleston many times, I have admired your house for years. It is even more lovely inside than out. I most appreciate that it is a home for you, your kids and animals, not just a showplace. Thank you for sharing. Merry Christmas!
Watching this film was the highlight of my month! What a stunning home and fantastic story she has to tell. Love the way this was captured, you certainly have a talented team!
I am so happy to get to see inside this beautiful home and see that ordinary people live there today. Thank you so much for sharing your family’s home with us!
Very articulate lady and love her take on the design elements within her stunning home. Love how all the rooms are quite different but complement each other. Would love a library like hers. Charleston has so many lovely homes and buildings.
Absolutely beautiful. The way colors, patterns, textures and old and new furniture and art come together seems effortless, but - this is why you hire a designer! It takes a special talent to balance all that wonder. I can get stuck in ole reliable beigeville too often, but this is home is inspiring me.
The front door is gorgeous! I wish I was there to take our Christmas picture! In front of it. It’s so sweet that you put it us for the city of Charleston. Lovely home, thank you for sharing.
Yes, “ truckload of money” - while I don’t believe in materialism obey is a tool that can be used for beauty and to x press the innate creativity that is in us all.
What a stunning home. Charleston seems like such a gorgeous place to visit, and people there seems to embrace the heritage of the site. So adorable to see!
Such a beautiful home and I love her style in that she likes color as do I. How special it is that she feels like the caretaker of the home and wants to share it Charleston which is such a beautiful city!
OMG, this is the type of house in the location I have always dreamed of. So wish I could afford a home there, even a tiny one, but especially those narrow, second floor porch babies. Thank you for showing what they look like inside. Even better than I had imagined.
SOOO beautiful... nothing pretentious about her which was very refreshing. Her style of mixing is timeless. Show us more of this type of person and their home.
This beautiful, bright, cheerful well thought out and lived in home puts anything in NewYork or Paris to shame. We should all strive for such welcoming and warm homes at whatever level we happen to live. Merry Christmas!
Love this house and all the interiors. Glad to see that she has not forgotten her New York roots. I'm a native New Yorker too and your heart never leaves this great city. I really enjoyed this video. Thank you ❤️
Charleston is a beautiful city. This home reflects all the wonderful things it has to offer. The entry way floors were the highlight for me.. All is gorgeous.❣
I'm late to the party with regards to seeing this house! Stunning in so many ways. Her attention to detail and the mix of old and new is spot on, the houses oozes love and I'm in love with it!
❤gorgeous home. it's like a palace. love seeing the various colors and textured that were used to decorate various corners of the house. more videos like this please!❤
This home is beautiful. The colors,fabrics are eye-catching and inviting. Thank you for sharing your home. I have gotten so many ideas just from watching and I appreciate that.
She is so right. A home and an ecclectic one is so important in the development of a child. I spoke to my therapist about this recently, and all those odd rooms at my old house, my grandparents houses etc have shaped my sense of aesthetics and also my imagination in a way nothing else could. The sense of safety - so much so as well. x
I love this home! It’s lived in too. Dogs have a very nice room and the cat on the stack of books was adorable. Great style in each room 💖 I adore the Magnolia ribbon garland on the front entryway. Stunning. So Charleston ……. 🎄🥰
Wow. I moved to Greenville from IL in August last year and loving SC. We took a drive to see Charleston in September and fell in love with the colors. Thank you for bringing me inside your beautiful home.
Que elegancia y estilo y una casa que se vivie realmente no es sólo decoración sino que sus integrantes la vivien la usan y sus hijos hermosos y ella muy equilibrada en su diseño
I would have liked to see more of this fabulous home! I like that the owner didn't focus this video so much on, " I got this piece of art...blah, blah". She did leave me wanting to see more. Her attitude of being a " steward" of the home was refreshing. Loved those banana trees!
Your house is absolutely exquisite. Your taste is impeccable. If I win the lottery I want you to come decorate my house in Tucson Arizona. If you do read these comments where did you get all those amazing old black-and-white prints? Thank you for sharing.
I sold homes for 30 yrs. I always viewed my career as impactful to my clients lives. I always said, “a Doctor can save your life, and my life’s work gives you a home in which to LIVE that life”.
Everything about this video is beautiful, starting with how the video itself is produced. The camera work and editing complement Ms. Donnelley's organic, unassuming commentary. The stars of this video are the fabrics, which receive their well-deserved closeups! Ms. Donnelley's jacket is beautiful - where did she buy it?
Omg I loooove this❤️Right up my alley!!!!! The library was my absolute favorite, but the whole house was gorgeous. I will manifest something like that 🙏🌠
Her place is perfection but there was a missed opportunity. I wanted to see her driveway too. 🤣 One of my favorite decor videos. I will be watching it again and again.
I love the S. Carolina vibe and she has mastered it. So many interesting and beautiful pieces executed for family and critters. It’s a masterpiece. I hope to see more from this designer and my utmost thanks to Homeworthy for producing such eloquent vids. They make life worth living!

Finally someone who acknowledges the importance of Christmas ✨🎄

ugh! The annoying voice uptick is really a thing these days and I wish it would go away. This video and the homeowner/designer were so refreshing!

One of the most stunning houses I have seen on TH-cam. Very stylish!

Wonderful sense of style! I love her boldness and confidence. Beautiful home.
She and her home are stunning!
She is a designer with taste AND style. I love her home. It has a look that makes you believe it could be anywhere.
The most beautiful part of the house is that she shares it with the community. We need more of this!
We love her gift to Charleston, so very thoughtful!

Charleston is such a gorgeous city and this home is one of her jewels.
Charleston is stunning!
This is without a doubt the most beautiful house/decor I've seen. Just exquisitely done. That entryway floor! Perfection, all of it.
Such a stunning woman and designer! I'm glad I found her, I've never before seen her so far I remember. Thank you for the treat! This is a perfect holiday content 🌟

Watching this film was the highlight of my month! What a stunning home and fantastic story she has to tell. Love the way this was captured, you certainly have a talented team!
We're so happy this tour brought you joy, what a compliment!
I love this house and the designer’s ethos - beautiful design that embraces children and animals. Just stunning and joyous!
Lovely! You get a sense of life, love, and luxury that runs through the whole house in an non-fussy way. Well done!!!
Agreed! So much life and love was poured into this home!
What a stunning house! Her ability to mix styles and patterns in a way that just makes sense is amazing.
She has a great eye!
This is lovely to watch. A real person with kids dogs and cats and even lets them on the furniture!

Wow! She is talented, and has cash and taste a plenty.

The front door is gorgeous! I wish I was there to take our Christmas picture! In front of it. It’s so sweet that you put it us for the city of Charleston. Lovely home, thank you for sharing.
Historical homes in Charleston are gorgeous and you know it's a labor of love and a truckload of money to maintain them so beautifully over the years.
Yes, “ truckload of money” - while I don’t believe in materialism obey is a tool that can be used for beauty and to x press the innate creativity that is in us all.
Ceara Donnelly's work is a gift that keeps giving, refinement, creativity, surprise, warmth and elegance. Thanks for such an inspiring present.
Adore this one :) Her and Cathy Kincaid give off similar vibes (loving their homes to be lived in and comfortable) and I love that!
What a stunning home. Charleston seems like such a gorgeous place to visit, and people there seems to embrace the heritage of the site. So adorable to see!
Oh, and the cats… ❤
A dream house! I love the plum colored library the most!! But its gorgeous through and through! Thank you for sharing it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Such a beautiful home and I love her style in that she likes color as do I. How special it is that she feels like the caretaker of the home and wants to share it Charleston which is such a beautiful city!

Love the character of the house and how sensitively was designed.
Agreed!
Absolutely gorgeous house❤especially love the entryway floor design ❤the outdoors is to die for❤
To die for!
SOOO beautiful... nothing pretentious about her which was very refreshing.
Her style of mixing is timeless.
Show us more of this type of person and their home.
Lived in Charleston my whole life & always walked by these homes curious to know what they looked like on the inside. Beautiful home! 😍
Me too!
I adore Charleston and I am so glad you are a steward for this house. You have made it beautiful with form and function. Stunning.
Just stunning!
What a lovely home.
I have many fond memories of my visits to Charleston.
We're so happy you enjoyed the tour!
This house is beyond gorgeous! The design obviously is fabulous, but the actual house is out of this world stunning!
That. House is sooo mesmerizing! Beautiful, well done! 💕
This beautiful, bright, cheerful well thought out and lived in home puts anything in NewYork or Paris to shame. We should all strive for such welcoming and warm homes at whatever level we happen to live. Merry Christmas!

BEAUTIFUL HOUSE, THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR IDEAS AND LET US INTO YOUR HOUSE. GREETINGS FROM TEXAS. 🤠👍

Aside from loving the home, appreciating and connecting to the community/ neighborhood is another thing. 🥰🥰
I just took a photo of her door a few days ago! She's in one of the best locations in Charleston.
❤gorgeous home. it's like a palace. love seeing the various colors and textured that were used to decorate various corners of the house. more videos like this please!❤

The brainiacs at Schumacher have done it again. Wonderful segment!🙂🙂😉😉❤️
All the love!

Gorgeous home! Count you provide information on the blue color in the dining room? Thank you!💙
Boy I love this house. Cool lady too, she feels very genuine, such a lacking thing on the internet.
Beautiful classic home. I love the library and the pale blue dining room.

I love the way she speaks about curating joy. Loved it!
Your house is absolutely exquisite. Your taste is impeccable. If I win the lottery I want you to come decorate my house in Tucson Arizona. If you do read these comments where did you get all those amazing old black-and-white prints? Thank you for sharing.
Well that was gorgeous. Very creative and unique. I would love to see the kitchen.
Oopies,one of my favourite so far ... we best friends ... she just doesn't know it yet.Thank you for sharing.
Such a beautiful, cozy home.❤ Love the mix of warm and cool colors. Love the pink exterior as well. Such a residence with immaculate taste.
Just stunning!
Crisp presentation with constant features of the spaces without ramblings of side-stories. Family experiences shared in video form.
Amazingly blurred the southern and northern design esthetic! Charming. ❤
I sold homes for 30 yrs. I always viewed my career as impactful to my clients lives. I always said, “a Doctor can save your life, and my life’s work gives you a home in which to LIVE that life”.
What a great moto!
Well decorated, comfortable and not pretentious… love this home
Well said! We love this home!
This is so beautiful, I could cry 😢. The floors are gorgeous ❤
The floors are absolutely stunning!
From Marcia to Marcia...
I am right with you !
Love the Home❤
Everything about this video is beautiful, starting with how the video itself is produced. The camera work and editing complement Ms. Donnelley's organic, unassuming commentary. The stars of this video are the fabrics, which receive their well-deserved closeups! Ms. Donnelley's jacket is beautiful - where did she buy it?
We're so happy you enjoyed the tour!
Omg I loooove this❤️Right up my alley!!!!! The library was my absolute favorite, but the whole house was gorgeous. I will manifest something like that 🙏🌠
The library is the library of our dreams!
Love that entry way flooring/painting. Wow.
All the love!
Absolutely gorgeous! Amazingly beautiful and love that you have kids, dogs and cats!!!!
The garland around the front door is just off the charts. I’m going to copy out of sheer flattery
I'm from Chas & know this house very well! I've often photographed it & the doorway. It's just beautiful!
Beautiful home and beautiful touches that make it even more special and unique
It's all in the details!
I’ve walked by your lovely home many times! Lovely, thank you for sharing 🥰
Absolutely stunning home in my favorite American city! Well done!
Nothing better than a Charleston house tour!
Her place is perfection but there was a missed opportunity. I wanted to see her driveway too. 🤣 One of my favorite decor videos. I will be watching it again and again.
Such a beauty! My favorite house on TH-cam.
We have the same sense of style which is what we Love and what inspires us !!! Her home is lovely and best of all lived in !!!
I love the S. Carolina vibe and she has mastered it. So many interesting and beautiful pieces executed for family and critters. It’s a masterpiece. I hope to see more from this designer and my utmost thanks to Homeworthy for producing such eloquent vids. They make life worth living!
My husband and I went to Drayton Hall. I agree, it's a lovely color. The detail there was fantastic.
