St. George Tucker House, Colonial residence in Historic District, Williamsburg, United States.
The St. George Tucker House features traditional colonial architecture with two stories, multiple wings, and symmetrical chimneys reflecting 18th-century construction methods.
Built in 1718 for William Levingston, the property became home to St. George Tucker, a prominent lawyer and professor at the College of William and Mary.
In 1796, Judge Tucker presented the Virginia General Assembly with a detailed plan proposing the gradual abolition of slavery in the state.
The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation offers designated visiting hours from 9:00 to 11:30 and 13:00 to 15:30 for donors contributing specific amounts annually.
The house introduced the first Christmas tree tradition to Williamsburg in 1842 when Professor Charles Minnigerode decorated small evergreen trees during celebrations.
