Crednal is a historic home located near Unison, Loudoun County, Virginia, United States. The building is an example of an early-19th-century, Federal-style, two-story, five-bay, brick dwelling built in 1814, that was constructed around an existing 18th-century, vernacular, residential stone core. A two-story, three-bay frame wing was constructed in 1870. In 1993, a two-story, two-bay, Greek Revival-style brick dwelling that had been slated for demolition from Greene County, Virginia, was moved to the property and attached to the house by a hyphen. Also on the property are the contributing Carter family cemetery and an unmarked slave cemetery.{{cite web |url=https://www.dhr.virginia.gov/historic-registers/053-0141/|title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory/Nomination: Crednal|author=Maral S.
