1. Awaiting you in the rich fertile soils of Central Virginia is a GRAND Georgian Revival turn-of-the-twentieth-century 6000 square foot mansion sitting atop a knoll overlooking more than 58 acres of lush pastureland and century-old trees. Historically known as Newstead on the James, the essence of grandeur overflows as you enter the 12 by a 36-foot foyer that is flanked by four generous formal rooms, including a banquet-sized, light-filled dining room with window seats overlooking the sweeping eastern view of meadowlands. Notable features include Buckingham slate roof (One of the unique features of Buckingham® Slate is its resistance to acids, genuine unfading qualities, low absorption rate, and lifetime expectancy of 150-200 years), 14” solid brick walls, copper roofing on both balconies, widow’s walk and triple window bay and copper gutters and downspouts and fourteen-foot ceilings, intricate millwork, and mantles that surround the twelve working fireplaces, handsome Oak wood flooring, and large pocket doors between the formal interior rooms allowing intimate settings for entertaining on both small and large scales. Upon ascending the beautifully-adorned stairway to the second level, you will find tall ceilings, and a bright and sunny sitting area with doors to the front balcony that provides commanding views of the estate grounds. Mother-in-law suite or apartment with separate entrance and full kitchen for guests upstairs. English basement with shop. The fenced pastures and horse ready barn open up the endless possibilities of this 5 bedroom, 3.5 bathrooms, impressive piece of history nestled between Richmond and Charlottesville. Thirty-nine miles to Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello. Intimate and private, surrounded by rolling pastures, yet in three hours you can be on the mall ready to visit the Smithsonian in Washington DC. 44 open acres with house, barn and shed; 14 wooded acres and civil war era caretakers cottage. (58+ acres, house, cottage, barn and shed $1,199,557.) Fiber optic high speed internet cable recently installed; service coming soon.
