This house is supposedly the largest in the Old part of Charleston and is definitely worth a visit. Very knowledgeable guide who gives you the history of the house,its various owners and the amazing collection of artefacts.The rooms are jammed packed full of all sorts of interesting and unique pieces. Gardens outside are excellent as well. Tours every 30 minutes.
This was the last home we toured and it blew us away!! The home has an incredible history of rags and riches and the amount of original lighting and wood work preserved in incredible. The “bones” of the home are beautiful to see, but the the true grandeur is in the current owners furniture and art collection. Over the top amazing!! from Trip Advisor
Be warned – this is not your average plantation house tour. The Calhoun Mansion is a wonderful old home that is filled from top to bottom and all nooks and crannies of some of the most wonderful antiques and interesting old stuff you can imagine. Yes, some of it is original to the beautiful home, but some is just a collector’s paradise. The owner…
I have been on a lot of the other tours of homes in the historic district. Would never have guessed the contents of the house based on view from curbside. The collection inside is amazing! Word of warning for those with OCD! from Trip Advisor

You will see art and furniture from the beginning of this home as well as art, furniture, silver and numerous other pieces recently collected from around the world. From India to Africa from…

Why do a typical 1800’s historic house tour when you can do the Calhoun Mansion!? My husband loved it! This says it all! There are so many old houses to tour in Charleston its mind-boggling! Having been to several cities with properties that boast similar architecture and charm, we wanted to experience something out-of-the-ordinary in Charleston. And believe me, we found it at Calhoun…

This mansion is just over the top. From the beautiful gardens to the amazing collection of antiques and fine arts. Once inside you cannot hardly take it all in! from Trip Advisor
This mansions was pointed out to us on our Palmetto Carriage Tour by our guide as one not to miss. We went back to it after the tour and bought tickets to see inside. It is not cheap. It is $16 pp to see it. Our tour though was wonderful. The 1st room you will see is called the OMG room b/c that’s what…
