Property Description

This one-of-a-kind Frank Lloyd Wright Prairie-style home is an architectural and natural retreat, nestled on 32.61 acres in Orange County, VA. Custom built with intention and artistry, this home offers serenity, sustainability, and soul.

Inside, the design embraces natural materials and warm wood finishes, creating a harmonious and inviting living space. Handcrafted cherry trim, 4” cherry plank flooring milled in Pennsylvania, and cherry Thomasville cabinetry with granite counters set the tone. A Thermador commercial gas range and Andersen windows and doors add both function and style. The great room features 16’ ceilings with transom windows and a fireplace with a soapstone insert. The primary suite includes a steam bath and soaker tub. Systems include solar panels (net metered), a whole house Generac generator, instant hot water, and a heat pump with gas backup. The partial basement (outside entrance only) offers excellent storage and houses many of the home’s utilities.

The detached garage/workshop includes a studio apartment (formerly a certified kitchen)—offering Airbnb or guest space potential. A pavilion built in 2018–2019 features a brick oven, brick fireplace, electric, and a custom gathering table, perfect for entertaining.

Outdoors, the property is a sanctuary of native Virginia landscaping—a naturalistic approach that favors pollinators, birds, and beneficial insects over manicured lawns. Thoughtfully curated with native wildflowers, grasses, and shrubs, this eco-friendly design supports local biodiversity and seasonal beauty. Additional features include a spring-fed pond, koi pond, greenhouse, raised garden beds, and 3 miles of private walking trails.

An adjoining parcel of 49.74 acres is also available, with approximately 880′ of state road frontage and division rights. For those who prefer private access, there is the option to build a personal driveway directly from the state road—a fantastic opportunity to further customize the property to your lifestyle and preferences. Both parcels are zoned Agricultural and in land use under the Virginia Forest Stewardship Plan. Conveniently located just a short drive to Lake Anna, Culpeper, Richmond, and Washington, D.C.

This thoughtfully crafted home offers a unique and serene setting ideal for an event venue. The Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired design, soaring ceilings, handcrafted cherry details, and spring-fed pond create a memorable backdrop. A full-length deck overlooking the water and a pavilion with brick fireplace and oven are perfect for outdoor gatherings. A truly special property with timeless character, environmental harmony, and natural beauty.
