About this home

Perched on a high knoll in the heart of Rockfish Valley, this rare 1890s historic masterpiece sits on 8 private acres boasting tremendous mountain and valley views. Built with massive 18-inch exterior stone walls, this architectural treasure offers a level of quality and permanence rarely seen today. The main residence features 4 bedrooms, 3 updated custom-tile baths, and beautifully aged original hardwood flooring. Seamlessly blending historic charm with modern comfort, the property includes enclosed porches, a cold-storage basement, and a 600 sq. ft. conditioned detached dependency—ideal for a guest cottage or home office. Outside is a botanical oasis with stone walls, rich fertile soil, thousands of perennial bulbs, and a captivating, spring-fed dual waterfall bordering the front porch. For ultimate peace of mind, a 48kW whole-house generator and 2,000 gallons of propane storage ensure always-on power. Perfectly located on the Route 151 Trail, you are minutes from award-winning wineries, breweries, cideries, the Appalachian Trail, and Wintergreen skiing and golf, while maintaining an easy commute to Charlottesville and UVA.
