Pear Valley, Historic colonial house in Eastville, Virginia, United States.
The one-room cottage features a brick end with decorative glazed headers forming chevrons and a massive pyramidal chimney with tiled weatherings.
Built between 1720 and 1750, this yeoman's cottage underwent several modifications in the 19th and 20th centuries before its restoration by Preservation Virginia in 1986.
The interior structure contains original elements like chamfered plate and ceiling joists, demonstrating the building techniques of colonial Virginia housewrights.
The Northampton Historic Preservation Society manages the property, which visitors can explore through scheduled appointments for guided tours.
Archaeological studies revealed that Pear Valley was initially constructed as a two-room structure with an additional brick chimney opposite to the existing one.
