The Goodloe House located in the City of Staunton is a 1927 Colonial Revival house with Craftsman-style accents and a professionally designed garden. Architect Sam Collins designed the dwelling. The house is surrounded by large boxwoods, a walled soapstone and brick patio with a fountain, and a garden area with a brick walkway and a modern gazebo. Landscape architect Charles Gillette designed the garden and patio, which retain good integrity notwithstanding loss of original plantings through natural succession. The Goodloe House, which is located in a historic residential area on the north side of Staunton, has distant views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from the upper floors.
