Review:
The Adam Stephen House is an historic home in Martinsburg that was originally constructed between 1772 and 1789 as the home of Revolutionary War General Adam Stephen. The shaped limestone home, which sits atop a prominent stone ledge overlooking the city, stands two and a half stories tall and features two stone and log outbuildings. Though it fell into near-ruin in the mid-20th century, it was restored to its historic glory in the 1960s by the General Adam Stephen Memorial Association and opened to the public as a living history museum. Unique features of the home include a natural cave located underneath its basement, which has been excavated and is open to the public for guided tours. Other attractions at the site include the Triple Brick House, a National Register of Historic Places-listed building from the 19th century that once served as a dining car kitchen for the B&O Railroad.
