Only on a rare occasion will you find such an extraordinary estate come on the market near Charlottesville, VA. Cobham Park, c. 1856, provides architectural beauty, a natural pristine setting, historical significance, and has been impeccably restored/updated. Sited on the highest knoll on 286 acres, Cobham Park offers a tranquil, private & secure setting yet it is located an easy 5 minute drive to Keswick Hall & a 20 minute drive to Charlottesville & the University of VA. The significant restoration in 2018 included all new systems (electrical, plumbing, geothermal, generators) while preserving the original and beautiful architectural features. While the cook will love the spacious kitchen with custom Officine Gullo stove & other top-of-the-line appliances, the entertainer will love the ambience of the old kitchen turned into a Pub. The home consists of 5 bedrooms & 5.5 baths. The grounds include a stunning pool & charming brick pool house, 5 cottages, several barns, a large workshop, lush fenced pastures & mature hardwood forests. This estate is not under a conservation easement but would make a good candidate.
