Barrett–Chumney House is a historic plantation house near Amelia Court House, Amelia County, in the U.S. state of Virginia. The house was largely built about 1823, and is a two-story, five-bay frame central-hall building with weatherboarded exterior and hipped standing-seam metal roof. It is a Federal-style I-house with a notable Federal-style door surround. The house was remodeled in about 1859, with the addition of Greek Revival elements. Also on the property are a contributing tobacco barn, two sheds, and a carriage house/garage.[3]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.[2] It is also on the Virginia Department of Historic Resources list of historic African American sites in Virginia.
