Oak Hill is a mansion and plantation located in Aldie, Virginia that was for twenty-two years a home of Founding Father James Monroe, the fifth U.S. President. It is located approximately nine miles (fourteen kilometers) south of Leesburg on U.S. Route 15, in an unincorporated area of Loudoun County, Virginia just north of Gilberts Corner (the intersection of 15 with U.S. Route 50). It is a National Historic Landmark, but privately owned and not open to the public.
