Mary Washington House, Colonial house in Fredericksburg, United States.
The Mary Washington House exhibits symmetrical Georgian architecture with a central hallway and rooms arranged on both sides of the interior layout.
George Washington purchased this property in 1772 for 275 pounds to provide his mother Mary with a comfortable residence near her daughter's home.
The house contains period furnishings and artifacts that demonstrate the daily routines and social customs of upper-class colonial American families.
The museum operates from 10 AM to 4 PM except Tuesdays, with guided tours lasting 45 minutes and admission prices of $10 for adults.
The Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities saved this structure from being dismantled and transported to the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.
