Ednam House is a historic home located near Ednam, Albemarle County, Virginia. It was designed by Richmond architect D. Wiley Anderson in Colonial Revival style. It was built about 1905, and is a two-story, wood-frame structure sheathed in weatherboards and set on a low, brick foundation. The main block is covered by a steep deck-on-hip roof, with tall, brick, pilastered chimneys with corbeled caps projecting from the roof on each elevation. Attached to the main block are a series of rear ells covered by low-hipped roofs. The front facade features an original colossal two-story portico consisting of four unfluted Ionic order columns.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
