Cobham Park, Colonial Revival estate in Albemarle County, Virginia.
The rectangular mansion features a two-and-a-half-story structure with five bays, double-pile layout, and a hipped roof containing three dormers on each slope.
William Cabell Rives Jr., son of a United States senator and minister to France, established this summer residence in the 1850s near Cobham.
English master carpenter E.S. McSparren constructed the mansion following Georgian Revival influences, incorporating elements typical of 18th-century architectural design.
The 692-acre property straddles Albemarle and Louisa counties, with access from Virginia Route 22, though visitors should note its private ownership status.
The interior features a flying spiral staircase that demonstrates advanced carpentry techniques from the antebellum period.
