Mountain House, Greek Revival house in Front Royal, United States.
Mountain House is a mid-19th-century residence in Warren County featuring a two-story brick structure with balanced proportions characteristic of its era. The property includes several original buildings such as slave quarters, a meat house, and various outbuildings spread across the grounds.
The house was built in 1847 and received a two-story wooden addition in 1869. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
The property reveals how residents and enslaved people lived and worked through its preserved quarters and farm buildings. These structures tell a story about life on the estate during that era.
The property sits on roughly 3.7 acres near Shenandoah National Park in Warren County. Visitors should note this is a historical site in a rural setting without full on-site services.
The property preserves two early-20th-century garages that document the shift from horse-drawn transport to motor vehicles. These buildings show how transportation methods changed on rural estates.
