The Amos Goodin House is a historic house at 37738 Wright Farm Road, in rural Loudoun County, Virginia northeast of Purcellville. Once the center of a larger landholding, the house is a two-story stone farmhouse built about 1810, with a wooden porch extending across the front. The layout of the house is a rare surviving example of an English "Mora Stuga" plan, with a hall that has a winding stair, and a single large chamber occupying most of the ground floor.[2]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.[1]
