An outstanding example of federal architecture, this home was designed by Charleston architect Gabriel Manigault in 1803. It's noted for its carved-wood mantels, grand staircase, elaborate plasterwork, and garden "folly." The pieces of rare tricolor Wedgwood are noteworthy.

A very attractive house to tour, has plenty of nice architectural detail and attractive furnishings. Tour itself is short (in the dining room only), and you go self-guided from there with people available for questions. Worth the visit.
