Westbourne, also known as Pinehurst, is a historic home located in Richmond, Virginia. It was designed by noted architect W. Duncan Lee in 1915, and built in 1919. It is a 2 1/2-story, Georgian Revival style brick dwelling consisting of a symmetrical central block flanked by two-story brick wings and covered with a hipped slate roof. It features a tetrastyle Corinthian order portico that occupies the center bays of the north elevation. The property includes extensive gardens designed by noted landscape architect Charles F. Gillette. The house was originally built for Abram L. McClellan, a wealthy business man and real estate developer.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.
