Homestead Manor features Georgian architecture that can be traced back to Francis Giddens' appreciation for his heritage in Louisa County, Virginia.[1][4]

Between 2015 and 2019, the property served as a restaurant.[5] Presently, it serves as both an event venue and a coffee shop. The coffee shop, known as "1819," pays tribute to the year when the manor's construction was finalized [6]

There is a 50-acre conservation easement.[2]
