Property Description
A historic property rich in character and endless possibilities, this exceptional country estate is situated minutes from the charm and history of Scottsville. Circa 1830, the main residence showcases craftsmanship and character-rich details such as gleaming heart pine floors, detailed wainscoting, tongue-and-groove ceiling with exposed beams and wood burning fire places. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms offer unique charm, including one with a private second-story deck, another with an ensuite bath, and a third anchored by a brick fireplace. The separate cottage provides exceptional flexibility with a kitchenette, full bath, living area, wood stove, and loft bedroom—ideal for guests, extended family, a home office, or rental income potential. Set on more than 19.5 acres of gently rolling countryside, the property features a desirable mix of open land and mature woods. An eight-stall barn and large three-bay utility building offer excellent space for horses, hobby farming, workshops, equipment storage, or other agricultural pursuits. A peaceful and private setting just 30mins from Charlottesville, this distinctive estate combines historic character, versatile amenities, and the beauty of rural Virginia living.
