The Daniel Cannon House is a Charleston landmark tied to the early development of the Cannonborough neighborhood.

Daniel Cannon (the man)

  • Daniel Cannon (c. 1700s) was a wealthy carpenter, planter, and entrepreneur in colonial Charleston.

  • He acquired large tracts of land north of the city during the mid-18th century.

  • His lands later became the Cannonborough neighborhood (hence the name “Cannon Street” and “Cannonborough”).

The House

  • Location: 31 George Street, Charleston, SC.

  • Built: Around 1800, after Cannon’s death (he died in 1802, but his family completed or occupied it).

  • Architecture: Large Georgian double house, three stories over a raised basement.

  • Use: Residence of Daniel Cannon and his heirs; symbol of his success as a carpenter who rose to planter-class wealth.

Historical Significance

  • The house is directly tied to the transformation of Cannonborough from rural landholdings into a structured Charleston neighborhood.

  • Daniel Cannon was unusual for his time: a skilled artisan who managed to cross into planter society.

  • The Cannon House is one of the finest surviving Federal-era residences in that part of the city.

  • Today, it’s preserved as part of Charleston’s protected historic homes.
