Someday Farm | Barboursville, Va ~ French Provincial STUNNER!
Someday Farm
The ~14,000 sq. ft. main house was built using old-world craftsmanship and materials and modern luxury following the “New Old House” tenants of Russell Versachi. Throughout this custom home, exceptional attention was taken to incorporate period-correct details against a backdrop of reclaimed wood and antique stone. It is this level of layered detail that enables Someday Farm to sit softly in the landscape – just like the numerous “real” historic homes that abound in central Virginia. Beyond the main residence, you will be wowed by a massive generator, multiple wood-burning furnaces for homes and barns (sustainable supply from the farm's hardwood forest) an abundance of recreational options (stocked pond, orchard, gardens, woodworking shop, hiking/riding trails) the farm has a healthy and diverse wildlife population and is located 25 minutes from most of Charlottesville's attractions (including CHO, JPJ & UVA), just off of the Rt29 corridor, yet in the heart of Orange's historic countryside. Additional features: 2nd residence~a retreat all its own 3bed/2.5bath | 2bed/2bath Garage Apt.| beautiful gated entrance| winding paved driveway| large upper and lower level climate-controlled garage.
