Edgemont, Historic residence in Covesville, Virginia

Edgemont features a three-bay frame structure measuring 50 feet by 50 feet, with four slender chimneys rising from its hipped roof.

Built around 1796, Edgemont earned its place on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, representing early American residential architecture.

The Jeffersonian architectural style of Edgemont reflects the design preferences of Virginia's late 18th-century elite residential construction methods.

The property includes a stone garden outbuilding and spans 30 acres of land in Albemarle County, near the historical Charlottesville-Lynchburg route.

The entrance displays a pedimented Tuscan order portico supported by columns, sharing architectural similarities with the Folly in Staunton, Virginia.
