Spring Hill is a historic home located at Ivy, Albemarle County, Virginia. The main house dates to about 1785, and is a two-story, brick dwelling expanded in the 1870s and 1930s. The oldest building on the property is the brick field slave quarters, built about 1765, and once served as the main house. Also on the property are a brick dairy and kitchen. The house is representative of the evolution and integration of academic and vernacular architectural styles covering over two centuries of Albemarle County settlement.[3]
