Abraham Beydler House, also known as Valhalla Farm, is a historic home located near Maurertown, Shenandoah County, Virginia. It was built about 1800, and is a two-story, six room, brick dwelling in the Federal style. It has a full basement and a two-story ell added perpendicularly to the house around 1850. Also on the property are the contributing smokehouse and the remains of a spring house. The house is representative of German immigrant adoption of the Federal style of architecture, popular among residents of the Shenandoah Valley.[3]
