Broad Bay Manor, Historic manor in Virginia Beach, United States.

Broad Bay Manor is a brick manor house in the Broad Bay Colony area of northeastern Virginia Beach. Thomas Allen built the small central portion of the present larger house around 1640 in Flemish bond brick, and the structure was enlarged over the following centuries. It remains a private residence.

Thomas Allen built the central section around 1640 on land granted by Governor Thomas West or his brother John West. This early structure formed the foundation for the property, which later received additional building additions.

The house stands in the Broad Bay Colony section of northeastern Virginia Beach and is still a private residence, not a museum. Its name ties it to Broad Bay, the water it faces, and the surrounding neighborhood carries the same name. Visitors see only the exterior from the road.

The property remains privately owned and located near Virginia Beach, with direct access to the grounds limited. Visitors can view the exterior from the street while respecting the privacy of the current residents.

The claim that it is the oldest European-built house in the southeastern United States is described in the sources as purported, not confirmed. The central portion Thomas Allen raised around 1640 is the part to look for: Flemish bond brick, in which alternating headers and stretchers form a pattern across the wall face.
