Robert Pringle House, Georgian Colonial residence in South of Broad, Charleston, United States.

The Robert Pringle House is a three-and-a-half-story house at 70 Tradd Street, three bays wide and six bays deep. Unlike most Charleston single houses, its first two floors each hold two rooms of unequal size: a front room three bays deep, separated by a stair hall from a two-bay rear room. The piazzas and street front door show early 19th-century style.

Judge Robert Pringle had his initials and 1774 inscribed in a stone used in the construction, which dates the house precisely. After Pringle died in 1776, his son John Julius Pringle inherited it; George Washington appointed him U.S. attorney for South Carolina in 1789, and he was state attorney general from 1792 to 1808. The house stayed in the Pringle family until 1886, and the current owner's family has held it since 1909.

The interior woodwork shows the Georgian style that wealthy merchants favored in Charleston during the colonial period. This craftsmanship reflects the prosperity of the family who lived there.

The house is located in a central spot in Charleston and is easy to reach while exploring the historic district. Its proximity to other colonial buildings makes it a natural addition to a walking tour of the neighborhood.

Stone inscriptions with Pringle's initials from 1774 remain visible in the construction materials, confirming the exact year of construction. These marked signs allow visitors to see the actual age of the house rather than merely reading about it.
