About This Home
As of March 2026Welcome to Chisolm-Alston House at 172 Tradd Street, an architectural gem in one of Charleston's most iconic areas, South of Broad. This meticulously restored home boasts a grand portico with towering columns, soaring 12-foot ceilings, 4-inch thick cypress doors, a flying staircase and all with a charming blend of rich history and modern luxury. Chisolm House was originally built in 1834 by Alexander Hext Chisolm, the owner of a rice and lumber mill at the west end of Tradd Street, and is attributed to the noted Prussian-trained architect Charles F. Reichardt. It is a striking example of Greek Revival. The unique stately Corinthian columns were modeled on the Choragic Monument of Lysicrates in AthensThe property originally fronted the Ashley River before a large land reclamation project in the early 1900's shaped the peninsula into what it is today. The house is set in a well planned and well established garden with beautiful live oaks, palmettos, magnolias and camellias. Walk up the front steps to the foyer with spacious parlors left and right, with checkerboard painted floors. The central hall leads past the formal, book-lined, dining room and an equally large family room to the large kitchen, a breakfast area, an airy porch and handsome stairs down to the garden. The upstairs hosts two bedroom suites and two large bedrooms, accessible by either the front or back stairs. The aboveground basement provides extensive storage. The decor of the house, was by noted designer, Carolyne Roehm, with endless thoughtful detail, from fabric-upholstered walls in every bedroom to the rich wallpapers and floors. The home's graceful spiral staircase sets the tone for the stylish experience that unfolds across each room. A bright and inviting kitchen features an eat-in breakfast area, large walk-in pantry, double oven and stovetop, spacious island, two sinks, and abundant counter space and custom cabinetry, perfectly designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The primary suite offers a serene retreat with a spacious walk-in closet, a woven rug carpet for added warmth, and elegantly appointed details throughout. Additional highlights include a laundry room with generous shelving, a basement, off-street parking and meticulously maintained grounds. Every inch of this home combines form and function, from the large windows that fill each room with light to the refined finishes and handcrafted elements. This home is a work of art.
