Welcome to the historic “Gold Hill House” — where charm, character, and country living come together in the heart of Buckingham County. Originally built circa 1825, this timeless 4-bedroom, 3-bath home rests on 5 private acres, with 3.5 of those fenced and gated — perfect for animals, gardening, or simply room to breathe. And yes — you’ll enjoy quiet country living with high-speed internet! Step up onto the wide, newly updated front porch with a brand-new metal roof and ceiling and feel the history as you walk inside. Hardwood floors run through most of the home, the living room features a new HVAC system and cozy gas fireplace, and the formal dining room is perfect for gatherings. The kitchen blends history and function with local Buckingham slate flooring, granite countertops, and stainless appliances. You’ll also find a library with a 2nd fireplace — a peaceful spot to work or read. The first floor also includes a full bath, an oversized mudroom, and access to a rear pergola where you can catch breathtaking sunsets over the Blue Ridge Mountains. Upstairs, all four bedrooms share a full bath and new carpeting, giving fresh comfort to the historic charm. Outside, the property is loaded with features: a two-story barn with a newly renovated and landscaped exterior, established fruit orchard, multiple giant walnut and pecan trees, paddock fencing, and wide-open space. Infrastructure upgrades by JES (with warranty) add long-term peace of mind. Gold Hill House isn’t just a home — it’s a living piece of Virginia history, lovingly updated and ready for its next chapter. Come see what country living is all about — schedule your showing today!
