Virginia is where the first permanent colony in the entire United States began— we’ve been here a long time. It makes sense that we would have some of the oldest homes in the nation. Add in the fact that many of the Founding Fathers and 8 U.S. Presidents are from Virginia. Now consider that there are countless other famous authors, statesman and innovators that hail from the Old Dominion. Needless to say, we have hundreds of historic homes and sites in the state — and it’s nearly impossible to visit them all.
So to keep you from feeling overwhelmed, we’ve given you a list of some of amazing homes in Virginia that carry some of the most incredible stories. Each of them will give you a chance to step back in time, learn about a unique part of our amazing history and maybe, just maybe, provide a little insight in to the men and women that made not just Virginia, but the entire nation, a better place.
