The
Inn at Levelfields  History
of "Level-fields" ~ The manor house is the second
homestead to be erected on this site. It was built for Thomas Sanford
Dunaway in 1857-58, at which time it was the center of a plantation
of over 1,200 acres. It has been an architectural landmark since before
the War between the States.
Characterized by an impressive double-tiered portico
on the South front and massive chimneys, Levelfields is one of
the last ante-bellum mansions to be built in the Commonwealth and
represents the final expression of the authentic hip-roofed Georgian
colonial style. Notable features of the Inn are its graceful and lofty proportions,
spaciousness of its dining and guest rooms, each with a working
fireplace. |
