Edenetta is a historic farm property at 6514 Tidewater Trail (United States Route 17) in rural northern Essex County, Virginia, west of the hamlet of Chance. The main house is a two-story brick building, constructed in the first decade of the 19th century by a member of the locally prominent Waring family. It was originally Federal in style, but was given Greek Revival features in the 1840s. The property, which includes a smokehouse and kitchen, remained in the Waring family until 1984.[2]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.[1]
