Conveniently located just 15 minutes south of Charlottesville, this 40-acre horse farm enjoys a gorgeous setting and is anchored by a custom, one-owner home built in 1986. 4 BRs, 4 woodburning fireplaces, country kitchen with huge windows and beams. Cozy library and living room, both with built-ins and fireplaces. There is a wrap-around porch that is screened on the side. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, including primary suite with fireplace, and a wide center hall with sitting area. A pool area and pool house are immediately south of the main home. The house sits on an elevated site overlooking the mostly open 40 acres, which includes hay fields, a creek as one border, and fenced paddocks. There is a large barn suitable for a variety of uses, as well as a 7-stall horse stable and an outdoor riding arena, all in very good condition. Not just an equestrian property, the land is versatile. The property consists of 2 tax parcels, one of which is a 5-acre lot which adds significant investment value as well as options for 2nd home or guest house on the property. With bucolic pastoral views in every direction, this is a perfect small farm in a desirable location in southern Albemarle.
