Edgewood Farm is a lovely historic log and frame home dating from the
late 1700’s, located just outside of Leesburg, VA on 32 totally private acres
with a large pond, two bank barns, open rolling fields and twenty-five acres
of forest. The forest contains many mature oak trees and has a very open
woodland floor. This combination of history, privacy, gorgeous land and
close-in location is rarely found today. Located just 22 miles from Dulles
International Airport and 42 miles from Georgetown.
The frame and log home has a stone foundation, exposed stone and log walls
on the inside, two full baths, three bedrooms and three fireplaces. There are
about 2400 SF of finished living space on the three levels. The cottage is in
very livable condition with great potential for future renovations and
additions. The English basement contains the kitchen, dining room, laundry
and a full bath. The home is quite “pure” and has many old heart pine floors,
mantles, doors and walnut window frames.
The rolling fields and border of mature woods provide total privacy with no
other homes in sight. The large spring-fed pond is ideal for fishing and
swimming. A small stream flows from the pond’s overflow. The property
boasts two magnificent bank barns; one of stone and the other with a stone
foundation and both in good condition. The classic red frame barn has horse
stalls on the lower level.
The variety of buildings on the property might suggest to a new owner
several possible configurations for creating his country estate. Whether
using the cabin as a main residence, expanding the core of the cabin to create
a new “old house” or using it as a guest house and converting the barn into a
residence is left up to the imagination of the new owner. With the unique
setting, lovely rolling fields, historic architecture and close in location, the
possibilities are endless.
