Property Description

Set in the heart of Manakin Sabot’s renowned Deep Run Hunt Country, this exceptional 18-acre estate offers timeless elegance, privacy, and the rare beauty of true Virginia countryside living. A beautiful driveway lined with 38 mature Willow Oaks leads to a stately Georgian Colonial crowned with a Buckingham slate roof sits gracefully amid rolling meadow views. From the wrap-around porch and expansive screened porch, enjoy sweeping views of the gently sloping acreage — a setting that invites slow mornings, quiet reflection, and effortless entertaining. Built in 1990 and thoughtfully designed with grand scale and proportion, the residence features five bedrooms, five and one-half baths, and three fireplaces. Ten-foot ceilings, hardwood floors on both levels, exquisite crown molding, and detailed wainscoting create a refined yet welcoming interior. Generously sized rooms offer the perfect balance for hosting gatherings or enjoying comfortable family living. The cherry kitchen is beautifully appointed with an integrated refrigerator, center island, breakfast room, and wet bar, seamlessly connecting to the family room with a wood-burning fireplace and adjoining verandah. A gracious living room with gas fireplace, formal dining room, and first-floor guest suite complete the main level. Upstairs, the owner’s suite is a true retreat-expansive in scale with a private sitting room, dedicated office, dual closets, and a spacious bath featuring a soaking tub and separate shower. Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the four-stall horse barn with tack and wash room, multiple natural springs providing abundant water, and frontage along picturesque Genito Creek. Imagine ending the day with a glass of wine beside the shady creek bank, listening to the soft movement of water as the sun sets over the pasture-a setting both serene and unforgettable. Addt'l features: a sec syst, HighSpeed Comcast/Xfinity, water purif sys, irrig supported by sep wells, and the rare combo of privacy and accessibility within eastern Goochland County
