River Lawn is a majestic 512± acre southern Albemarle estate with 1.5 miles of frontage on the James River. A historic farmhouse dating to the late 1700s is perfectly sited on a knoll offering extensive views of the river. The interior exudes character with wood ceilings and beams, heart pine flooring, stone and brick interior walls, and fireplaces with beautiful mantels. The exterior features a large covered rear porch overlooking the lawn. The land is a great mix of open and wooded with several barns and great views to the river. Totally private, yet only 25 minutes to Charlottesville. A unique and delightful offering seldom available to the marketplace. Under conservation easement with the Virginia Outdoors Foundation.
