Oak Grove is a historic home located near Manakin-Sabot, Goochland County, Virginia. The central block of the main dwelling was built about 1850 in the Greek Revival style. It is two stories high and three bays wide, and features a full-width front porch with Doric order-style square columns and engaged pilasters. A semidetached one-story, two-bay wing, was built about 1820, and a two-story, two-bay rear wing was added about 1866. Also on the property are the contributing one-story heavy timber frame meat house, a one-story frame barn, a brick-and-stone-lined circular well, and the stone foundations of two historic dependencies.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.[1]
