Nealy Gordon Farm is a historic home and farm located at Brush Harbor, Montgomery County, Virginia. The farmhouse was built in three sections, beginning in the post-American Civil War era and ending around 1920. It is a small, two-story, saddlebag farmhouse, that started as a nearly square, single-pen dwelling made of log. Also on the property are the contributing frame, meathouse, privy, spring house (with lattice-enclosed forebay), hog shed, two large barns, and a corn crib.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
