Extraordinary home..I would live there in a heart beat.
Love a good historic house tour. This one is tucked into the very impressive Tulpehocken neighborhood in Germantown. The quality of the reproduction wallpaper furniture etc. was on the lower end of what you would typically see. However, the house is still pretty amazing and the historical education piece was decent. Would definitely return for the garden party event.
Suggestion to the ED: Do a murder mystery theater there!!

Ashley was our guide. She wore a black 1800s period dress that she made herself. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional. We also spoke at length with the grounds keeper who was also very informative. Because of them we throughly enjoyed our tour(11/3/2023). The mansion's interior and exterior is beautiful. We highly recommend a visit.

Gorgeous old home! Young, but very knowledgeable guide.

Seriously... if you love history, beautiful old (and well furnished) homes, and a guide who answers with knowledge and honesty... don't just sit there - make plans!!

Great historical place to visit in Philly. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. They also host murder mysteries. Can’t wait to attend this Coming October.
An excellent house to visit. It has been restored to its 1859 decor on the ground floor and to about 1875 on the second floor so you can see the stylistic changes. It was built as a completely modern structure in 1859 and has central heating, laid on gas, and hot water upstairs and down. The staff is very knowledgeable and provide a glimpse into upper middle class Victorian life. Well worth the time and entrance fee. If you visit in summer be sure to look through the gardens.
The mansion is awesome... I wish I can buy it. Loved the architecture and long huge backyard with a fancy metal fence... It's a great spot to shoot great pictures mainly if you're a big fan of old houses.
Ebenezer Maxwell's story is so interesting he went from a salesman of a wholesale drug importer to a director of a bank. It's an interesting life story and just cool family...
I love history and learning about those people who left their touch.

This museum is beautiful. You can only see it by guided tours, but it is well worth it. The tour is almost an hour long yet extremely affordable. The neighborhood around the museum is also worth walking around as there are tons of historic Victorian houses around.
