Governor Stephen Hopkins House
Governor Stephen Hopkins House, Colonial house in Providence, United States.
The L-shaped residence at 15 Hopkins Street features eight rooms spread across two and a half floors with colonial architectural details.
Stephen Hopkins, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, acquired this 1707 house in 1742 and expanded it during his tenure as Rhode Island governor.
The house displays a collection of 18th-century samplers and contains furnished rooms with Hopkins family antiques and personal belongings.
Visitors can tour the house on Wednesdays from 11 AM to 2 PM year-round and Saturdays from 10 AM to 4 PM between April and November.
George Washington stayed in one of the bedchambers during his visits, while a separate room above the kitchen housed the family's slaves.
