Thoughtfully cared for by nearly 2 centuries, Farmer’s Rest is settled into 25+ acres, close to downtown. A local treasure that will appeal to history fans, architecture buffs and those with a taste for the outdoors. On both the National Register of Historic Places and the VA Landmarks Register, this Greek Revival boasts a rare floorplan (largely unchanged), with many original 19th century windows, woodwork and fireplaces. Used as a Union hospital, the historic integrity remains well preserved here, while meaningful updates have infused the home with modern comforts. The bright 1st floor centers around an elegant double parlor, echoing today's open-concept living spaces. The 1st floor also has an updated farm-style kitchen with access to a deck, a pantry/laundry room, plus a renovated full bath, all with tasteful finishes. Upstairs, there are 2 bedrooms, an updated full bath, and a 3rd flexible room. The English basement includes space for an additional family room, another bedroom, and a new full bath. Outside, a barn, a smokehouse/workshop, plus a chicken coop, and the fields beyond inspire endless possibilities for the next caretaker of this historic landmark.

Step back in time and take in this lovely property. Built in 1825,this true Colonial home will be sure to capture your attention. It was a Civil War Union hospital and the layout varies from your typical Williamsburg Colonial as the foyer runs the width of the home and opens up to the living room and dining room. The crown molding is the true plaster molding. There are lovely period doors that separate the living room and dining room. The ceilings on the first floor soar to 11 feet high! There is a full bathroom on the first floor and 2 bedrooms and a full bath up. The entire parcel has 25+ acres and the home is situated at the end of long driveway which gives the property a private atmosphere. The land includes the original smokehouse, many beautiful and mature trees that accent the property!
