History
Belmont’s dwelling house, a typical homeplace of a Southside plantation, was built in the late 18th century for George Carey. It is a 1+1⁄2-story, frame dwelling sheathed in weatherboard. It has a side gable roof with dormers and sits on a brick foundation. It has a single pile, central-hall plan and features a Chinese lattice railing on the second story. Also on the property are a contributing smokehouse and office.
The plantation was acquired by the Blunt family in the early 19th century. There, on the morning of August 23, 1831, Nat Turner's slave rebellion was effectively suppressed.
The house at Belmont was rehabilitated in the late 20th century.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
