Here is your opportunity to purchase a Legacy Estate! Embark on a journey through time at the remarkable Liberty Farm, a unique retreat with a story unlike any other. Steeped in history dating back to its original landowner, The Reverend David Stuart of Inverness, Scotland, Liberty Farm beckons with its storied past and unparalleled serenity. Discover the heart of this estate, where a magnificent principal residence, built around 1796 by a descendant of Reverend Stuart, stands as a testament to centuries gone by. Boasting four bedrooms, four baths, & nearly 4,300 square feet of living space, this historic home has been cherished by only three deeded owners to date. The acreage combines a wonderful blend of pasture & woods, used for livestock, farming and hunting. Liberty is predominantly a tree farm with 90 acres of forest. This spring, 30 acres of pines will be replanted. The remaining 48 acres of hardwoods were thinned of less desirable trees, leaving oaks and other valuable hardwoods. The balance of the land is fenced and open pasture. Perched atop elevated ground, the estate enjoys refreshing natural breezes and a sense of seclusion, while its proximity to the Potomac River adds to its allure. Complementing the main residence is a charming 1371 square-foot cottage, complete with one bedroom, a full bathroom, kitchen, dining room, a converted sleeping porch, and a rustic fireplace to round out the ambiance, offering endless possibilities for guest accommodations. Venture beyond the cottage to discover seven additional outbuildings and barns, including a historic structure used as a Calvary Remount Station, dating back to World War I. Outdoor amenities abound, from a refreshing inground swimming pool surrounded by towering trees to serene nooks beneath century-old foliage. Whether you want to bring horses, cows, goats, chickens, create unforgettable gardens, or just enjoy the views of your land, this property offers a lifestyle hard to replicate. Step inside the main residence to find a seamless blend of historic charm and modern luxury. Meticulously preserved by its current owners, the home features a host of updates including a new roof upon their purchase, renovated kitchen, and landscaped grounds. There are 6 fireplaces and 3 chimneys that add to the style and function inside. Upon entering, be greeted by an elegant cantilevered staircase, leading to light-filled living spaces adorned with pine floors and floor-to-ceiling windows. Entertain with ease in the gourmet kitchen offering a harmonious balance of old-world charm and contemporary luxury, equipped with black granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and Oakleigh wood cabinetry. This kitchen is a masterpiece of unparalleled style and function. Its design is a testament to meticulous attention to detail, with every element carefully curated by the owners to evoke a sense of seamless integration with the home's historic charm. The main level also offers a formal living room, dining room, family room, office and sunroom, all with tremendous space and views of the property. Upstairs, discover a primary suite offering comfort & tranquility in equal measure. The suite offers a spacious walk-in closet, ensuite bath, that also connects to a private dressing room. Additional bedrooms provide flexible space for work or relaxation, while a basement offers ample storage and potential for customization. On an exciting and important side note, the State Review Board just approved the Owner’s application for the National and VA State Historic Designation. They have been invited to complete the next step for approval. Because of this, the property is now eligible for Virginia State Historic Renovation tax credits! This home boast top-notch systems including updated HVAC, heat pumps, & electrical panels. Conveniently located just minutes from Dahlgren, Caledon State Park, and downtown Fredericksburg, you can own a piece of history, just moments from city conveniences!
