BRADFORD HOUSE

Bradford House is a historic home located in Washington, Pennsylvania. Built in 1825, the Federal-style stone house was designed by influential architect John Chislett Sr. for his son John Chislett Jr. and his wife, Rebecca Bradford Chislett. The home is considered one of the most important examples of Federal architecture in the region, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The two-and-a-half story home is constructed of rough-cut sandstone blocks, and features a gabled roof, a main entrance with a canopy, and a Palladian window on the second floor. Inside, the home features a central hall with four rooms, each with its own fireplace. The home also features a full basement and attic.
The original landscaping still surrounds the home, including a stone retaining wall, a small pond, and a scenic view of the nearby hills.
The home has been owned by several prominent families in the area, including the Chisletts, the Vaughns and the Lincolns. It is currently open to the public for guided tours, with the proceeds going towards restoration and preservation efforts.
