Herbert House, Colonial Georgian residence in Hampton, United States.

The Herbert House stands as a two-story brick and frame structure on Armstrong Point, where Hampton River meets Sunset Creek near Hampton Roads.

Built in 1753, this dwelling remained in the Herbert family until 1808, with Captain Thomas Herbert serving in the Virginia navy during the American Revolution.

The building exhibits precise proportions and detailed brickwork that characterize the architectural methods of mid-eighteenth century Virginia residential construction.

The property sits at the eastern end of Marina Road, accessible through public streets but remains a private residence requiring respect for owner privacy.

This residence survived the Civil War destruction of Hampton due to its location outside the main town and its status as a plantation house.
