Halwyck

Halwyck, also known as the James Hoge Tyler House, is a historic residence in Radford, Virginia, built in 1892. This impressive two-story Queen Anne brick house is situated on a scenic bluff overlooking the New River. It served as the home of Governor James Hoge Tyler and his wife, Susan, until their deaths in the 1920s. The house features a distinctive T-plan layout and hipped roof, reflecting the architectural style of its era. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997, Halwyck offers a glimpse into Virginia's political history and the life of a prominent governor. The name of the house has evolved over time, originally spelled 'Halwick' during the Tyler family's ownership, before being officially changed to 'Halwyck' upon its historic designation.
