Augusto P. Hizon House, Heritage house in San Fernando, Philippines

The Augusto P. Hizon House stands along Consunji Street, featuring a winding staircase and a portico decorated with Mediterranean-style Machuca tiles from the 1900s.

Built in 1874, the house belonged to Maria Salome Hizon, a Philippine Red Cross nurse during the Philippine Revolution, before passing to her brother Ramon Hizon.

The structure displays Victorian-style Bahay na Bato design combined with American colonial architecture, reflecting the fusion of building traditions in the Philippines.

The National Historical Commission of the Philippines designated this residence as a Heritage House in 2010, making it part of a group of five protected houses.

Multi-colored Machuca tiles decorate the entrance, creating geometric patterns that demonstrate the Mediterranean influence on Philippine architecture.
