A stunning Georgian estate adjacent to the exclusive Dover Lake provides a unique resort lifestyle. Privately set back on four secluded acres in The Meadows at Joe Brooke Farm—one of Goochland’s most prestigious communities—is a rare find of timeless design and refined craftsmanship. The home’s elegant approach through mature oaks leads to a grand architectural presence, where classic symmetry and graceful proportions define its enduring beauty. Perfectly positioned adjacent to the exclusive Dover Lake, the property enjoys effortless access to private lake amenities reserved for residents. Inside, more than 7,000 square feet of beautifully finished living space showcase the signature artistry of a custom Stinson build—rich millwork, soaring ceilings, and finely detailed moldings throughout and complemented by the builder’s hallmark brick exterior and distinctive Grand Manor roof. The light-filled great room, anchored by a dramatic stone fireplace, creates a warm and inviting centerpiece for both everyday living and elegant entertaining. The chef’s kitchen opens to comfortable gathering areas, while the first-floor primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with refined finishes and direct terrace access. The finished walkout lower level expands the home’s living and entertaining spaces with a custom bar, spacious recreation room, and media area that open to the resort-style pool and stone patio surrounded by lush landscaping. Perfect Multigenerational home. Affectionately named "Twin Oaks", this timeless beauty stands as a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.
Residents of The Meadows at Manakin enjoy a gated lakefront park with an electric boat launch, and a covered picnic pavilion overlooking Dover Lake—a 115-acre private lake known for kayaking, paddleboarding, and exceptional bass fishing. Ideally located just minutes from Kinloch Golf Club, Hermitage Country Club, and less than 15 minutes to Wegmans, 809 Merchant Lee Court offers architectural grace, privacy, and the relaxed sophistication of country living.
