Samuel Wainwright House, Georgian residence in Charleston, United States.
The Samuel Wainwright House at 94 Tradd Street features tall windows, dormers, quoined corners, and a modillioned cornice across three and a half stories.
Samuel Wainwright, a prosperous planter who served in the state legislature, constructed this residence around 1760 at the northeast corner of King Street.
The house accommodated artist Samuel Morse, who created a portrait of Mrs. Daniel DeSaussure Bacot in his second-floor studio for the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The building transitioned through various functions, including residential spaces, a bakery, a grocery store, and the Tradd Street Pharmacy until 1970.
Mrs. James M. Wilson purchased the property in 1955 and initiated substantial restoration work in the 1970s, removing an exterior staircase from the east side.
