This postcard-perfect property, just 15 minutes from Charlottesville, is centered around a character-filled 1850 sharecropper’s cottage thoughtfully transformed into a gracious three-bedroom, three-bath residence. Nestled beneath a canopy of mature shade trees and surrounded by enchanting cottage gardens, the home exudes warmth, charm, and timeless appeal.

The home has been beautifully renovated with a single level floor plan offering spacious rooms overlooking the pool and Blue Ridge Mountains. There is a conservation easement protecting the property that allows for unlimited expansion of the current home and the right to build another residence if desired.

In more recent years, Spring Hill Farm has become a sought-after wedding venue, where the arena and surrounding grounds provide a memorable setting framed by sweeping panoramic views of the Blue
Ridge Mountains.

Additional amenities include a sparkling pool, a striking stone terrace with outdoor fireplace, a detached garage and workshop, and an exceptional custom-designed chicken house. For equestrian enthusiasts, Spring Hill Farm is fully equipped to welcome horses in comfort from the very first day. Those seeking a more relaxed lifestyle may continue the current arrangement with a neighboring farmer who maintains approximately 20 acres of fertile pasture and hayfields.
