Mountain View Farm presents an extraordinary opportunity to own one of Orange County’s treasured historic estates. Spanning 171.5 picturesque acres at 19424 River Road, this legacy property has remained in the same family since 1850 and offers an exceptional blend of history, natural beauty, and modern comfort. The stately brick residence, built in 1853, is rich in character and thoughtfully updated for today’s lifestyle. Featuring two stories over an English basement, the home offers three bedrooms, three full baths, and a seamless 2010 addition that complements the original architecture while providing expanded living space. Sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains create a spectacular backdrop to rolling meadows, mature hardwood forests, and open countryside. Whether your vision is an equestrian estate, working farm, family retreat, or conservation property, the diverse landscape provides endless possibilities. Adding to the property’s appeal is a charming, handicap-accessible one-bedroom, one-bath guest cottage. Originally a historic schoolhouse, it has been beautifully repurposed to provide comfortable accommodations for guests, extended family, or a caretaker.
