Seven Oaks was originally named for seven oak trees growing on the property, each of which were named in honor of the Virginia presidents. According to local lore, six of the trees were destroyed by Hurricane Hazel in 1954. The sole surviving oak was the one named for Thomas Jefferson and it stands prominently on the property today alongside the historic manor home. A pond and swimming pool adorn the majestic 100-acre property, along with a spacious pool house and colonnade.
