Locust Grove is a historic home located at Purcellville, Loudoun County, Virginia. The house was built in two phases, one before 1817 and another in 1837. The original section is a single-pile, two-story structure built of fieldstone with a side gable roof in the Federal style. Attached to it is the later 2 1/2-story, three-bay, double-pile, fieldstone addition. The interior features Federal and Greek Revival style decorative details. Also on the property are the contributing stone spring house, a frame barn, a garage, a stone watering trough, and a stone chimney.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1]
