A Historic Plantation in Virginia
Considered as one of the oldest domiciles in Virginia and probably in the whole US is this architecture, the Belle Air. It is a post-medieval house structure encompassed by a monumental plantation or cultivated lands. The Belle Air Plantation is now part of the National Register of Historic Places in Virginia. Inside this house is a hand carved staircase together with its walls which were made of timbers. Furnishings of the house are also one to look for here as they were all antiques aging back many centuries ago.
This 17th century structure was originally owned by Daniel Clark. In the 1800, Hamlin Willcox purchased the house who later made some expansion to the structure. Right now, the rightful owner of Belle Air is Mrs. Walter O. Major.
