Appomattox Manor, Colonial plantation house in Hopewell, United States.
The manor contains a two-story brick residence with white trim overlooking the intersection of James River and Appomattox River on a 10-acre property.
Built in 1751, the manor served as General Ulysses S. Grant's headquarters during the Civil War siege of Petersburg from June 1864 to April 1865.
The Eppes family maintained ownership of this plantation for over three centuries, managing agricultural operations and participating in Virginia's social networks.
The National Park Service maintains regular visiting hours, offering guided tours through the manor's period-furnished rooms and surrounding grounds throughout the year.
President Abraham Lincoln conducted military strategy meetings in the manor's drawing room during the final months of the Civil War.
