Boydville, Late Georgian mansion in Martinsburg, United States.

The two-story stone structure features a central wing with nine rooms and additional spaces that originally included a nursery and kitchen areas.

Constructed in 1812 by Elisha Boyd, a Virginia House of Delegates member who served as an officer in the Fourth Virginia Regiment during the War of 1812.

The mansion contains original English-imported woodwork, including hand-carved door frames and mantelpieces, with interior walls made of brick finished with plaster.

The property extends over 15.35 acres and is situated near the center of the Boydville Historic District, which encompasses multiple historical structures.

Mary Faulkner obtained a direct exemption from President Abraham Lincoln to prevent General David Hunter from burning the mansion during the Civil War.
