Property Description
Ideally nestled among approximately 190± acres of pasture, forest, and protected countryside, this extraordinary property combines history, privacy, and opportunity in a setting increasingly rare to find.
At its heart is an authentic mid-1800s American chestnut log cabin. Preserved as the home's central gathering space, the original cabin showcases massive hand-hewn chestnut logs from a tree species that once dominated the Appalachian landscape but can no longer be commercially sourced today. It is a remarkable piece of American history and a feature that simply cannot be replicated.
The farm was purchased in 1946 by the family that owned The Homestead Resort, who expanded the residence. Acquired by the current owners in 1968, the home has been carefully maintained and enjoyed as a family retreat for generations. Improvements over the years include updated bathrooms and, within the past two years, a new roof and well system.
The property consists of three parcels, including two separate 90± acre tracts that each allow for the construction of a residence and associated outbuildings. One parcel offers direct access to Route 220, creating exceptional flexibility for a family compound, guest homes, or future development.
Multiple barns and outbuildings support a variety of agricultural and recreational uses. Open pasture and mature woodland provide an ideal setting for horses, farming, hunting, hiking, wildlife watching, and other outdoor pursuits. Surrounded by Land Trust property, the estate enjoys exceptional privacy and natural beauty while remaining just 15 minutes from The Homestead's renowned golf courses, spa, dining, and amenities, approximately 20 minutes from Ingalls Field Airport, and approximately 2 hours from Charlottesville.
Whether envisioned as a private retreat, sporting estate, working farm, or multigenerational family legacy, this is a truly uncommon opportunity to own a historic and remarkably private Virginia legacy property.
