The estate is secluded within 100 acres of nature at its most natural pristine beauty. A small orchard, a beautiful flower garden and a pond complete the picture. The 2 story house boasts of 4000 square feet pure luxury. This is the perfect setting for historical trips to places such a Williamsburg and Appomattox VA.

Everything grand, including a complimentary pot of java, pastries, and the songs of birds to wake up to.
