Faber House, Historical residence in Hampstead Village, Charleston, United States
The Faber House features a two-story portico supported by four Ionic columns and includes a cupola on East Bay Street at coordinates 32.795278°N, -79.933056°W.
Construction of the house started in 1839 by Henry F. Faber, who died the same year, leading his brother Joseph W. Faber to complete the structure.
The Faber House represents the Palladian architectural style common among Charleston's wealthy residents during the early nineteenth century.
The Historic Charleston Foundation initiated restoration efforts in 1966, with Herbert DaCosta Jr. performing partial stabilization work on the property.
A street flare caused fire damage to the house during civil rights protests in Charleston on June 23, 1969, marking a connection to social change.
