Historic Real Estate

Greenwood, c. 1800, Orange County, VA

An excellent example of early Federal architecture, Greenwood is a 111 acre horse farm just minutes from the historic town of Orange Virginia. This well proportioned two-over-two farm house sits on a brick English basement overlooking pastoral and Blue Ridge Mountain views. An attractive wing with a tray ceiling was added in the mid-19th century. Greenwood maintains a great deal of its original materials and architectural detail including heart pine floors, partially enclosed stairway, plaster walls and chair rail. This detail along with well proportioned rooms, high ceilings, numerous working fireplaces and central hallway gives the home the charm and elegance one would expect in a house of this caliber. The home belonged to the family of James Madison. A very well built 9 stall stable also graces the property.
