Charles Pinckney House

The Charles Pinckney House is an 18th-century house at 7 Orange Street, Charleston, South Carolina.

Alexander Petrie bought the lot in 1747 and constructed the current 2 1/2 story house on a high basement sometime before 1770.

The mantels and woodworking are original, but other features including floors and large sliding doors to the parlors date to the early 19th century.

[1] Charles Pinckney was thirteen years old when his father bought 7 Orange Street in 1770, and the family resided at the house until 1778.

The house held the record for the highest price for a Charleston house when it sold in July 2001 for $4,075,000.
