Per the NRHP application: "The Burgandime House, according to tradition Culpeper's oldest residence, is located at 807 S. Main Street near the intersection of Main Street and Mason Street."

From the museum website (link), we learn that it is a log cabin covered with clapboard, built before 1749. The nps.gov website indicates that it was probably the home of a common laborer.

It is now part of the historical museum, thus tours are offered between 10-5, except for Sunday which is open 1-5.
