Clover Mount, also known as Tate House and Stone House Farm, is a historic home located near Greenville, Augusta County, Virginia. The house dates to the late-18th century and is a two-story, five-bay, cut limestone dwelling built in two stages and completed before 1803. The original section contained a two-room, hall-parlor plan, and measured 30 feet by 20 feet. Added to it was a single-cell, double-pile addition. A two-story stuccoed ell was added to the house around 1900. Also on the property is a contributing frame bank barn with heavy mortise-and-tenon construction.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
