Arrowhead, also known as Arrowhead at Red Hill, is a historic home and farm complex located near Charlottesville, Albemarle County, Virginia. It consists of a two-story, three-bay, gable-roofed frame center section dated to the 1850s; a two-story, multi-bay north extension added in the early 1900s; and a two-bay, two-story library wing added about 1907-1908. The interior features Greek Revival style details. Also on the property are a one-story frame kitchen building, a brick smokehouse, a large icehouse (now a garage), and a 1 1/2-story board-and-batten cottage.
