Robert "King" Hooper Mansion, Georgian mansion in Marblehead, United States

The Robert King Hooper Mansion stands as a three-story structure with a Georgian facade located at 8 Hooper Street in Marblehead, Massachusetts.

Built in 1728 by candlemaker Greenfield Hooper, the mansion was expanded in 1745 by his son Robert, who made his fortune through transatlantic fishing business.

The mansion now functions as the headquarters of the Marblehead Arts Association, hosting exhibitions, photography shows, and artistic classes in seven different galleries.

The Artisan Shop within the mansion offers art pieces and gifts for purchase, while the building maintains regular hours for visitors interested in its architecture.

The property changed ownership in 1819 when it was exchanged for a schooner named Economy, after which it served as a dry goods store until 1888.
