Arnheim is a historic plantation house located at Radford, Virginia. It was built between 1838 and 1840, and is a two-story, three-bay, Federal / Greek Revival–style brick dwelling. It is a symmetrical double-pile plan dwelling, 40 feet square, and sitting on a raised brick basement. In 1939, it was converted into a home economics annex for the adjacent Radford High School. Arnheim was built by Dr. John Blair Radford, for whom the City of Radford is named. The property also includes a documented contributing archaeological site.[3][4]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.[1]
