Ebenezer Maxwell Mansion

Fodor's Review:

Philadelphia's only mid-19th-century house-museum is a Victorian Gothic extravaganza of elongated windows and arches. This gorgeous 1859 suburban villa has Philadelphia-made furniture and extensive period gardens. Its three-story tower is the incarnation of an old haunted house.
