Springdale, also known as Half Moon, Alexander Trimble House, Holly Hill, and the Dixon House / Farm, is a historic home located near Lexington, Rockbridge County, Virginia. It was built about 1812, and reached its present form in 1914. The brick dwelling consists of a two-story, three-bay, pedimented, central section flanked by two-story wings. The interior features Federal style decorative details. The full-length front porch with a pediment above the front entrance replaced the original, smaller porch in 1914.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[1]
