An aid to George Washington, Col. Richard Kidder Meade (1746-1805), of the American Revolutionary War, after the war, bought a large tract of land in the valley of Virginia on the advice of George Washington. The small frontier cabin was included in the tract of land and Meade enlarged it by adding to the west end of the cabin about 1784, to be a temporary home until a larger home could be built (Lucky Hit). Bishop William Meade was born at Meadea and raised at Lucky Hit. Meadea is now a 1 1/2-story, three bay, log dwelling with a gable roof. It rests on a stone foundation and has an attached stone chimney. It is the only remaining 18th century log building in White Post.〔 A descendent of Col. Meade now lives at Meadea.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.〔 It is located in the White Post Historic District.
