Bunting Place, also known as Mapp Farm and Nickawampus Farm, is a historic home and farm located at Wachapreague, Accomack County, Virginia.

History

The farm was built about 1826.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.[1]

Description

The farm is a two-story, five-bay, brick-ended frame house.

It sits on a raised Flemish bond brick foundation with cellar, and has a medium pitched gable roof. The house has Federal style details.

Attached to the main block is a 1+1⁄2-story frame wing that provided original service to the house and serves presently as a modern kitchen. Attached to the wing are two additional sections extending the main block in a stepped or telescope form. Also on the property are a contributing gable-front frame barn and a rectangular frame corn house, as well as a small family cemetery with four burials.[3]
