The David and Catherine Driver Farm is a historic farmstead in rural Rockingham County, Virginia, near Timberville. The main house, a 2.5 story wood frame structure, was built c. 1845 and has Greek Revival styling. It was extended in the 1880s, giving it a T-shape and adding Victorian details such as bull's eye window in the front gable. The farm's most notable building is a c. 1839 barn, a rare survivor of the American Civil War campaign of Union Army General William Tecumseh Sherman through the area, in which most barns were destroyed.

The farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
