Charleston Exteriors



Here's some eye candy from a long ago trip to Charleston.  Is there anyplace like it in the US?








Above is one of my favorite houses. You can see the garage off to the right. Take a close look at the picture below - it's an interior close-up of the garage.

My picture only shows 2 but there were 3 wall mounted tables with the metal branches w/birds and candle votives. What a garage interior!!





A gated path that connects King Street and Archdale Street. It brings you into the churchyard of the Unitarian Universalist Church.
Formal gardens.



 Love the pig featured on the plaque above the fountain.

    So much charm! I can't stand it!!! The details on each entry are so unique to the home. They really set the tone for what's to come once you're inside. Great style, great paint choices, and great gardens...
    Thanks for sharing,
    Sharon

    I've always heard wonderful things about Charleston. I'm just a car ride away, hopefully one day I'll get to see all the southern charm in person.

    Oooh gorgeous!!

    We're going to Charleston for our honeymoon - 4 days in the historic center in a lovely apartment and then 7 days at the coast in an ocean-front house!! I cannot wait. If you have any favorite places, send me a quick list!
