About this home
BELLAIR – Iconic 1947 mid-century modern residence set on 8.2 private acres w/ exceptional views over the Boars Head Amenities & Farmington to the Blue Ridge Mountains. Numerous possibilities – from thoughtfully updating the distinctive residence to a rare opportunity of building a new main residence on one of the last large sites on the very edge of town & reimagining the existing house as a dependency. Constructed of concrete, cinderblock & steel, w/ an expansive wall of glass along the rear of the house creates a defining connection between architecture & landscape, drawing magnificent mature trees, open grounds & mountain views deep into the living spaces. The entrance hall leads to a spacious living room, kitchen, dining room, full bath & sunroom, all oriented to the surrounding landscape. A separate main-level wing off the kitchen provides a comfortable guest suite w/ a sitting room, kitchenette, bedroom & full bath. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a full bath, along w/ three additional bedrooms & full bath. Outside, a covered patio & pool extend the living environment. Situated across from the Bellair pond & long wooded frontage on Old Farm Road. Exceptionally convenient to Charlottesville & University of Virginia.

Extraordinary, elevated 8.2 acre building site overlooking the Bellair lake with panoramic mountain views to the Blue Ridge Mountains over Farmington and Ednam. This is perhaps the last large building site at the very edge of town just minutes to Everywhere. The building site is flat to gently sloping facing the western views. The property is currently accessed by an existing shared, paved driveway. There is long frontage on Old Farm Rd to put in a new separate driveway if desired. An existing house and pool adds significant value as a flexible dependency: guesthouse, office, rental, in law suite, etc. Property cannot be subdivided.
