Burlington is a historic plantation house located near Aylett, King William County, Virginia.
Owen Gwalthney II bought the 700 acre plantation from Lewis Burwell in the mid-18th century.[2]
The two-part main house is mostly in the Classical Revival-style and was erected in 1842 by Dr. William Gwathmey, but the rear ell contains a fragment of a Colonial-period frame dwelling erected by the Burwell family. The main section is a two-story, stuccoed brick dwelling with a standing seam metal gable roof. The earlier portion is topped by a hipped roof. Also on the property are a 19th century boxwood garden, the contributing old smokehouse, an early framed barn (that was the original meetinghouse of the Beulah Baptist Church), and the Gwathmey family cemetery surrounded by a brick wall.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
