This 1816 neoclassical mansion was owned by Tho-
mas Peter and Martha Custis Peter, the granddaughter of Martha Washington. Today the
mansion functions as a small museum, and features furnishings and artwork from Mount
Vernon, which give a nice insight into American decorative arts. The 5 acres of grounds
are beautifully landscaped.
