John Welsh House, Renaissance Revival residence in Wyndmoor, Pennsylvania.
The John Welsh House features an asymmetrical Gothic Revival cottage and a cubic Italianate-style cottage constructed from cut and squared Wissahickon schist stone.
Originally owned by Hannah Callowhill Penn, who managed Pennsylvania's finances and administration after William Penn experienced strokes in 1712.
The residence became the first freestanding residential hospice in southeastern Pennsylvania when Keystone House opened there in September 1997.
The National Register of Historic Places listing makes this property eligible for preservation tax incentives and restoration grants through the National Park Service.
Major General Washburn purchased this residence as a wedding gift for his daughter Jeannette and her husband Albert Kelsey, who named it Rauhala.
