Oak Hill in Annandale, Virginia, United States, is a Georgian style home built in 1790. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. [1]
It was extensively renovated in the 1930s and is significant for its architecture after that renovation. [3]
On the night of November 5, 1861, a shootout occurred at Oak Hill between members of the units later involved in the Bog Wallow Ambush, in an area of much probing and patrolling between Union and Confederate forces. [4] All three of the Fitzhugh estates were protected by orders from both sides throughout the war. [5]
David and Amanda Scheetz purchased the home in 2008, after a foreclosure, for $1.15 million. [6] The home is open to tours periodically. [7]
