Kenridge, also known as Colridge, is a historic home located near Charlottesville, Albemarle County, Virginia. It was built in 1922, and is a three-part plan dwelling, consisting of a two-story, five-bay, main block flanked by one-story wings in the Classical Revival style. The house is built from hollow vitreous tiles faced with Flemish-bonded bricks. The sections are topped by slate-covered hipped roofs. It features a monumental two-story, tetrastyle portico with colossal Tower of the Winds columns on the front facade.[3]
