Clifton Farm in Madison County exudes character and charm from its gracious foyer and plaster walls reaching to eleven foot ceilings with crown moulding and wainscoting. The wide plank, heart pine floors have an aged patina from 158 years of use and stand ready for generations yet to come. The classic two over two design has a tasteful addition to the rear which includes a kitchen and a spacious great room with a large, wood burning fireplace. The home has an oil-fired hot water baseboard heating system with a fairly recent furnace. There is no central air. The home has not been lived in for a few years and is in need of updating. This is a home worthy of the effort and will be a treasure to the next owner.

Clifton Farm is comprised of approximately eighty-five acres of prime Madison County farm land. There are about thirty acres in one parcel surrounding the residence and another seventy acres across the road. The fertile, gently rolling land has been planted in crops, (corn or soybeans) most recently and would be well suited for hay or livestock as well. The fifty-five acre tract has some nice hardwoods on it and some frontage on a small stream.

The property is being offered with all improvements on thirty acres or on the entire one hundred acres. Due to the long state road frontage on both parcels, Clifton Farm may be sub-divided. This added value makes this beautiful property an excellent candidate for an Open Space Easement which would offer dramatic tax benefits.

Clifton Farm is located in central Madison County about 10 minutes from the towns of Madison and Orange. Charlottesville and the University of Virginia are just thirty minutes south and Washington DC is just one and one half hours north.

On 30 acres - $695,000 (Under Contract)
55 acres with no improvements - $695,000
On 85 acres - $1,200,000
