CHESMONT is an inviting country retreat, 18 miles south of Charlottesville, in the quiet hamlet of Esmont. The property blends rural charm with surprising versatility. The main residence offers generous living space anchored by a bright open-concept kitchen/dining/living area - perfect for gathering. A first-floor primary suite provides convenience, while the sun-filled first-floor Office invites creativity. Upstairs you’ll discover bedrooms and a family room with four built-in bunkbeds, plus a hidden play nook disguised as a closet, making the home especially fun for young visitors. Front and back porches offer extra living space in shade or sun. Terrace level includes a workshop and sewing room, ideal for hands-on projects and hobbies. Beyond the home, the Cottage with Garage creates flexible space for guests, extended family, or rental income. A substantial Barn (C: 2022) and chicken coop add to the property’s utility, while the current owners’ craftsmanship shines through in a stacked-stone water feature, fire pit, and multiple gathering spots around the grounds. With room to breathe, space to create, and thoughtful touches throughout, "Chesmont" is more than a property - it's a lifestyle. Come see what all the fuss is about!
