Hull-Wolcott House, Federal mansion in Maumee, United States.
The Hull-Wolcott House is a Federal-style mansion in Maumee, Ohio, now operated as a museum. The building contains fourteen rooms spread across multiple levels and displays furnishings and objects from the 1830s.
James Wolcott first built the structure in 1827 as a log house and expanded it into a larger residence in the following years. The major transformation occurred as Wolcott developed his commercial operations along the Maumee River.
The house now serves as a museum showing how prosperous families lived in the early American period. The preserved rooms and objects tell stories of daily life and wealth during this era.
The house is located along River Road and can be visited on guided tours offered by the Maumee Valley Historical Society. Visitors should plan ahead since opening times vary by season.
The property was more than just a residence - it had docks and warehouses right on the Maumee River for Wolcott's business operations. The owner ran his shipping enterprise from this location using his own steamships.
