Fancy Farm (Bedford, Virginia)

Fancy Farm is a historic plantation house at Kelso Mill, near Bedford, Bedford County, Virginia, built around 1785 in a Late Georgian style as a two story, five bay brick dwelling with a metal gable roof, two interior end chimneys and original interior woodwork. Contributing outbuildings include a brick storehouse, a frame kitchen with a stone chimney and frame quarters with a stone chimney, and the grounds offer a view of the Peaks of Otter. During the Valley Campaigns of 1864, the house served as headquarters for Union General David Hunter during his Lynchburg campaign.
