Named for Elk Creek which runs through the property, the main home, a historical piedmont Federal plantation house was built circa 1797 by Waddy Cobb.

Still present are many remaining outbuildings of interest.

The main house is especially noted for its fine interior woodwork, the handsome proportions of its original section, and its unusual carved keystones.

While being renovated, the home maintains its original character that earned its place on the Virginia Historical Registry.  Although the house has evolved to its present appearance, with handsome additions made by various owners, the main section of the home is notable for a large amount of original fabric it retains.
