Lovingly restored historic colonial farmhouse where historic character meets modern peace of mind. Nearly every major mechanical system has been updated, allowing you to enjoy the charm of a 19th-century farmhouse without inheriting 19th-century infrastructure.

Natural light fills every room, highlighting the home’s preserved character and thoughtful renovations. Outside, enjoy exceptional privacy surrounded by farmland and mature trees as you watch the sunrise from the sunroom or catch the sunset on the screened in porch. The property includes a large hobby barn, original carriage house, flowering bushes, and black walnut trees—ideal for homesteading, hobby farming, or peaceful country living. A rare opportunity to own a beautifully modernized historic retreat with space, charm, and versatility.
Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, a country retreat, or the foundation for your homestead dreams, this beautifully restored farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Virginia history.
