About the Listing COMPS5 - 3085760
A storybook estate of timeless sophistication and country elegance. Located halfway between Upperville and Delaplane on the fringe of coveted Mellon land and Piedmont Hunt Country, Seaton Place Farm is set on 55+/- verdant acres of rolling lawns, mature trees, and wide-open pastures. The estate captures the beauty of every season — a true Currier & Ives setting. The stately 5,800-square-foot 1840’s brick residence is perfectly sited amid stone courtyards, a koi pond, a graceful marble-and-wrought-iron rotunda, outdoor entertaining space with stone hearth, and in-ground pool. An expansive barn complex, additional private residence, large pond with dock, and a personal golf course compete the offering— all impeccably maintained. Inside, the main house masterfully blends historic character with modern comfort. Exposed exterior brick walls, antique floors, vintage mantels and hand blown windowpanes are married with an expansive grand hallway, elegantly renovated baths and light filled, glass and window encompassed primary suite with private balcony and a bird’s eye vista of the grounds. The piece de resistance is the newly remodeled, published chef’s kitchen and great room wing, complete with an imported Lacanache stove, luxury appliances and custom cabinets balanced by a stone hearth and cathedral ceiling with exposed beams. The house has a total of four bedrooms, 3 full baths, 7 fireplaces, 2 car attached garage and views out of every window. The charming carriage house adds a bright, open three-bedroom/2 bathroom private residence with full kitchen, multiple porches for entertaining, and detached garage. The carriage house is currently airbnb’d with all 5 star ratings, multiple re-visits and booked calendar. The barn complex includes 6 stalls with individual walk outs, hot and cold wash stall, two tack rooms, ample storage above, and adjoining space for carriages, equipment, or a gym. There is a chicken “chalet” overlooking the creek for feathered friends, and fenced in barn designed for housing small ruminants. Cattle have been grazed on the lower pasture with creek access while horses enjoy the upper pastures with two run-in sheds. An additional chicken house and fenced garden with greenhouse and raised beds complete the gentleman’s farm. This property lives like a world-class resort, offering endless recreation: horseback riding, golfing, fishing, hunting, kayaking, skeet shooting, swimming, sledding, carriage rides, or simply relaxing in an Adirondack chair with a view. Every inch of this estate tells a story — one of beauty, heritage, and an extraordinary way of life.
