Experience timeless Southern elegance at Whitehall, a historic 619-acre estate in Chatham, VA. Built in 1939 by son of U.S. Congressman Joseph Whitehead, the plantation-style home sits atop a hill, accessed by a half-mile oak-lined driveway. Inside, the residence features five generous bedrooms—four upstairs and one on the main level—along with two full bathrooms, including a walk-in shower and soaking tub. Ten-foot ceilings, a spacious dining room, large living room, and screened-in porch offer comfort and charm, ideal for gatherings or peaceful retreats. The land is equally impressive, with acres of open pasture and harvestable timber. Five ponds provide scenic beauty and recreation, while Banister River frontage and the bordering White Oak Mountain game preserve offer privacy and natural beauty. Perfect for hunting, fishing, farming, or trail riding. Just minutes from Chatham and under two hours from major cities, Whitehall offers an extraordinary blend of history, beauty, and versatility.
