Caryswood

Caryswood is a historic home located near Evington, Campbell County, Virginia. It was built about 1855 and is a two-story frame building in an “L” configuration, covered by a low, hipped roof. It has a two-story, rear addition, with a one-story kitchen extension. The house is covered in flush (presumably ship-lapped or tongue-and-groove) siding, which creates a regular, smooth, somewhat monolithic appearance. The house features Italianate and Greek Revival decorative details. On this property, you will find an 1856 stable, the remains of an icehouse, a smokehouse, and an office.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.
