Perched just perfectly on a hill overlooking the Nelson County valley is Bon Aire, circa 1798, listed in the National Register of Historic Places & the Virginia Landmarks Register. Built by Dr. George Cabell, Jr., this property embodies a combination of Federal style, Jeffersonian influence and heritage. The county states there are (8) division rights. Bon Aire is a testament to early American architecture with massive columns at the entrance. This distinctive hilltop estate offers 4 spacious bedrooms, 2.5 baths, 10-14 ft ceilings, hardwood floors, synthetic slate roof, gourmet kitchen, and 7 wood-burning fireplaces. The English basement has a separate guest suite currently used as an Airbnb, “The Sunflower Room”, with private entrance, kitchenette, full bath, and bedroom. The 43-acre property has a fully updated 3-bed, 1 bath guest cottage with whole-house generator, a barn, and multiple outbuildings. The main house and the guest cottage have been thoughtfully restored while maintaining the historical integrity. There are graceful arches, recessed panels, Chippendale-style portico railings, and a staircase tucked within a side arch to the 2nd floor. The features are a design hallmark linked to Thomas Jefferson and his associates.
