Fancy Hill is a historic home located near Glasgow, Rockbridge County, Virginia, United States. The house was built in two phases, the first about 1821 and the second about 1831. The result is a two-story, eight-bay, Federal-style brick dwelling. Front and back two-story porches and two small rooms at the back of the house were added about 1840. A 1½-story brick wing was added in 1936, when the house was renovated. The property also includes the contributing large gabled two-story barn, equipment garage, and small shed.
