Ebenezer Maxwell House, Victorian house museum in West Germantown, Philadelphia, US.

The Ebenezer Maxwell House features a mansard roof with slate covering, three porches, four stone chimneys, and a three-story tower on its masonry structure.

Built in 1859 for cloth merchant Ebenezer Maxwell at a cost of $10,000, this residence represents the architectural preferences of Philadelphia's merchant class.

The mansion functions as an educational center where visitors examine Victorian-era domestic life through authentic furnishings and architectural elements.

Located at 200 West Tulpehocken Street, the museum conducts guided tours and maintains gardens for community events throughout the year.

A cast-iron sidewalk from 1907 North 7th Street was relocated and integrated into the rear porch of the mansion during 1979-1980.

Location: Pennsylvania
