Comfortable and cozy

What a find for a two-night mother-daughter trip to Washington, NC! Keith could not have been nicer, both through online communication and in person. He greeted us when we arrived, gave us a brief history of the house and the renovation of it, and told us everything we needed to know about the upstairs rooms we had use of, which also included a sitting room that contained a large tv, small fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and dishes/utensils/cups/mugs. The beds and linens were very comfortable. Perfect getaway location for a mother-daughter or best friends trip. I will definitely recommend it to anyone I know planning a trip to Washington, NC!

Quick Weekend Away

The house is lovely. The beds and linens were super comfy and cozy. There was plenty of coffee, tea and water available for us. They are working on an upstairs sitting room which will be a nice addition. Street parking was convenient. We were able to park right in front of the home the whole weekend. You also can't ask for a better location. The river is directly across the street and all the downtown shops and restaurants are within walking distance.

Why they chose this property

This fine example of a classic 2 story frame Queen Anne Victorian home was built in 1889 and sits on what was part of the Boat Yard owned by Hull Anderson a liberated slave who purchased his freedom and ran a successful boat yard on this site from 1830 to 1841. I 1889 Frank and Jesse Bowers built this house and the corner house next door. When the land was subsequently subdivided the lot line also divided the Carriage house which can still be seen to this day with the Groom's quarters on one side and the Carriage room and stables on the other side. Dr Swindell in 1923 purchased the house in 1923 and lived here until 1969. Dr Swindell ran both the Riverview and Fowle Memorial Hospitals from 1919 to 1958
