The Edmondston-Alston House

The Edmondston-Alston House is one of Charleston's noteworthy houses that are saturated with history. Situated at 21 East Battery, the house was initially worked by Charles Edmondston in 1825 and was later sold to rice estate lord Charles Alston. Worked in the late Federal style by Edmondston, when Alston purchased the house, he refreshed the outline to the Greek Revival Style, including Corinthian sections, a cast-press overhang, and the Alston ensign.

Huge numbers of the first family things stay untouched in the house, for example, family representations, books, furniture and silver, reporting life in the house as it was decades prior.
