Fodor's Review:

One of the nation's finest examples of Adam-style architecture, the Nathaniel Russell House was built in 1808. The interior is distinguished by its ornate detailing, its lavish period furnishings, and the "free flying" staircase that spirals three stories with no visible support. The garden is well worth a stroll.

Cost: $10; $16 with admission to Aiken-Rhett House
Open: Mon.-Sat. 10-5, Sun. 2-5

One of the best houses and house tours in the city. Beautiful, ornate home with plenty of nice personal effects. Large and very attractive garden. Tour was very enjoyable and knowledgeable. A must.
