About This Home
As of September 2025New Price! Owner financing available at a lower interest rate than current bank rates. Once in a lifetime, the opportunity arises to own a property with such rich history! The building was constructed in 1882 for George Washington Wood, whose father John "Squire" Wood was the first burgess of Conshohocken, and a member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Pennsylvania's 5th congressional district from 1859 to 1861. Built in the Queen Anne Victorian style, the original doors and woodwork are restored and preserved in original condition. The high quality building materials of yesteryear remain, including the Chestnut Hill Stone facade, and slate roofing on the original turret. In 2019, the 6,100 Square Foot property underwent a 3 year extensive renovation, and proudly opened as the George Washington Wood Bed & Breakfast. This property can easily be used as a single family residence due to the careful selection of high quality materials. This stunning property features 6 unique bedroom suites, each with their own full bathroom. The first floor welcomes you with a grande entrance, and includes a living room with fireplace, dining room, kitchen with butler pantry, and a large office or additional living room. Adjacent to the dining room is a lovely enclosed porch flooded with natural sunlight, a feature that you will enjoy for having morning coffee or growing beautiful plants. Ascend the staircase to the second floor where you will find 4 bedroom suites with full bathrooms. The third floor has 2 more bedroom suites, one of them having an extra sitting room as well. Attention to detail abounds, especially with each unique bathroom that manages to marry modern convenience with rich finishes that pay homage to the property’s history. Out back, there are 6 private parking spaces for residents and guests. All of the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC was replaced during the renovation. This stunning home is located at the corner of Hallowell St. and 5th Ave., across from Mary H. Wood Park. A perfect central location in downtown Conshohocken, just a few blocks to many local restaurants, cafes, and shops. Conshohocken is also known for it’s many parades and festivals throughout the year that brings the community together. An easy commute to the city center and the Main Line. You must see this property in person to truly appreciate the love that was put into restoring and preserving its prestigious history.
