Selma is a historic property near Leesburg in Loudoun County, Virginia, at the base of Catoctin Mountain, first built between 1800 and 1810 as the home of United States Senator Armistead Thomson Mason. Between 1900 and 1902 the architectural firm Noland and Baskervill rebuilt it around the earlier structure as a two and one half story, hip roofed, stuccoed brick Colonial Revival mansion fronted by a Roman Doric portico, described as one of the county's earliest and finest examples of that style. The house was listed on a Virginia register of the most endangered historic sites in 2009 before new private owners bought it in 2016 and began a major restoration that is still underway.
