The oldest house in
Blythewood is the Hoffman House, built in 1855 by
George Peter Hoffman, for his bride, Jane Ruff.
The Hoffmans lived in the house
for 48 years until Mr. Hoffman's
death in 1902 and Mrs. Hoffman's death eight months
later. They had 12 children who grew up in the house and 2 of these
children later had their own families, who remained in Blythewood
or the Cedar Creek area.
The original house
had three front rooms which still have the
hand-beveled tongue and groove heart-pine timber floors, walls and
ceilings. Two wings were added later, which can still be seen with
its wide, somewhat curved hallway running through the house.
Several other families lived in the house after the
Hoffmans. It was put on the National Register after being
restored by the Brantleys in 1978. The house has been an antique
shop, a venue for parties and receptions, a flower shop and then in
2000 was again refurbished and became
Town Hall.
We are now making small repairs to the house and
having it painted. After the renovations, you are welcome to come
in to see the historic Hoffman House, with beautiful Doko Manor
next door.
