The Linkous-Kipps House is a historic home located at 2190 Merrimac Road in Blacksburg, Virginia. It is a well-preserved example of early-19th-century architecture featuring a two-story, L-shaped log structure with a hall-parlor plan layout.
The oldest section of the house was built in the early 19th century, and it underwent significant improvements in the early 1850s. These modifications demonstrate how this style of dwelling was historically modified for changing uses over time.
The property also includes a spring box and a frame spring house, both built in the early 20th century. The house and these additional structures were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989. While it was in Merrimac at the time of listing, it is currently located within the bounds of Blacksburg.
