The Dulwich Manor, also known as Dulwich Farm, Dulwich House, and Amherst Academy, is a historic home located near Amherst, Amherst County, Virginia. It was built in 1909, and is a 2+1⁄2-story, five-bay, Classical Revival style brick dwelling. The façade is dominated by a large, two-story portico capped by a pediment formed by a cross gable roof with a small tripartite Palladian window in the tympanum. The house is covered by a steeply-pitched hipped roof of slate shingles. Also on the property is a contributing shed and gateposts.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.[1]
