Property Description
The current agricultural operation is easily continued as a family farm, converted to an equestrian center, or developed as a vineyard/winery. There are a number of stunning building sites to take advantage of the pastoral beauty of the landscape and the Blue Ridge mountains in the distance. The recently renovated farmhouse is in move-in condition, and can easily be rented out, but it also affords an opportunity for expansion into a substantial manor house. Whatever your goals, Spring Hill Farm offers a diverse array of options for future use.
Built in 1837, the farmhouse has been added on to over the years – most significantly in 1950 and then again in 1994. Today the indigo farmhouse with a red roof has been updated with new clapboard and other trim repairs as well as a new HVAC system upstairs and a new expanded upstairs bath. The rooms reflect the expansion over the centuries, but all are well proportioned and easily accessible. A large (attached) three car garage has an unfinished upper level that can be easily converted into an apartment or office space. The current configuration of the main house is three bedrooms but a fourth bedroom is easily arranged from the office/study rooms on the upper level.
The house has a mix of older wavy glass and modern double paned windows. The cellar features old stone walls that have been partially plastered. The water source for the house is an underground spring that provides a good supply of water. An additional 40 gallons per minute well is located elsewhere on the farm.
There are a variety of outbuildings on the farm. Most are clustered together within walking distance from the house. These buildings, with the exception of the log cabin, are all stable and usable. However, only one is equipped with electricity. They include a three bay ‘carriage' shed by the house suitable for lawn mowing equipment. A red barn with a stone foundation is used for storage and home for barn cats. A corn crib barn is nearby. A log cabin frame is situated next to the corn crib. The machine shed barn is a large structure with seven bays for storing tractors and farm equipment. The larger red barn has a concrete floor and has electric service. It has a series of smaller rooms used for a workshop and storage. A large 60 x 75 hay barn is located some distance away and can service as hay storage and bunk feeding for cattle.
The 298 acres of Spring Hill Farm are divided between 77 acres of crop land (currently planted in beans and corn) and 160 acres of fenced pasture/hayfield, and approximately 60 acres of woodlands. The woodlands are a mix of pine and hardwoods of limited timber value. The farm is currently tenanted with a farmer running a cow/calf operation and maintaining the crop lands. There are smaller fenced paddocks for working the cattle, but handling facilities are at a minimum. Fencing in pastures is a mixture of board fencing, high tensile wire and barbed wire. A large 1 acre spring-fed pond is stocked with fish and provides a water source for cropland irrigation if necessary. The farm is currently divided into three separate tax parcels, but further subdivision could be applied for with Culpeper County. Or, alternatively the farm could be protected with a conservation easement. There are numerous building sites throughout the farm that afford spectacular views while keeping farmland intact.
