Own a Slice of Hunt & Wine Country History — Where Storybook Charm Meets Timeless Tranquility Tucked atop a gentle knoll overlooking the babbling waters of Pantherskin Creek, this enchanting 1700s cottage is more than just a home—it’s an invitation to enjoy history, nature, and slow living. Major renovation in 2021. Set on 1.16 acres of serene Virginia countryside, this cottage features brick floors, original stone walls, beamed ceilings, and a wood-burning stove. It’s the kind of space that feels straight out of The Holiday—cozy & brimming with character. The upper level features oak-clad, vaulted ceilings and fresh shiplap walls creating a light filled bedroom suite. This cottage has been meticulously updated with all-new Mechanical, Electrical, Plumbing, terracotta tile roof, and windows since 2022, blending modern convenience with the timeless charm. The newly installed septic system supports a 3-bedroom capacity, and the county has approved plans for a proposed 830 sq ft Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). Whether you envision expanding the main house, adding a guest cottage, or additional rental income, the possibilities are endless. Proximity to Middleburg, all of Virginia’s equestrian events and 30+ wineries makes this cottage an ideal location!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
