This historic 1900 farmhouse on 15 acres is guarded by monumental maple trees and a sense of history with its original woodwork, cornices, built in cabinets and exceptional sense of character. You approach the property by a gravel circular driveway that leads you to the front of the home with mature landscaping. When the house comes into view you are struck by its wonderful presence. Time stands still for a moment.
As you enter through the front door, you will notice the spacious rooms with fireplaces, 9’ ceilings and large windows. The crown molding, wainscoting and built-ins will catch your eye. To your right on the first floor is a library with a fireplace, lined with built in bookshelves. To your left is a cozy living room with fireplace and woodstove. Continue past the staircase, you will find the dining room with its crown molding that leads to an open country kitchen with granite countertops. As with homes of this era, there are back stairs in the kitchen that lead to the bedrooms and study above. On the second floor there are 2 bedrooms and a study and two full baths. Each bedroom has a fireplace. The study or studio has built in cabinets and makes an ideal third bedroom.
As you stroll the setting around this home you will notice the peaceful feel of country living. There is a wonderful guest cottage with kitchen, bath and great room which could be rented or serve as a farm manager’s house. To the right of the cottage there is a charming Pagoda and brick patio. To the left of the cottage is a spring house with storage and covered parking.
There is a large barn in good condition which is currently not in use. The pasture has four and three board fencing in excellent condition and there are two run in sheds. The fenced pasture includes a frost-free automatic waterer for horses. There are wonderful views of Piney Mountain.
Summerfields Farm is perfectly located in the Advance Mills area, ten minutes from 29N Hollymead Town Center shopping and twenty minutes from Charlottesville.
