The Pope–Leighey House is a suburban residence in Alexandria, Virginia, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in 1941 in the Prairie School style. Originally built as the Loren Pope Residence, the house has been relocated twice and now sits on the grounds of Woodlawn Plantation, where it is maintained by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. It is one of only three homes designed by Wright in Virginia, alongside the Andrew B. Cooke House and the Luis Marden House. The house is listed on both the National Register of Historic Places and as a Virginia Historic Landmark.
