Property Description
Experience unparalleled privacy at the magnificent North Wales, established circa 1713. This breathtaking Fauquier County property spans 1,482 acres of rolling fields, forest, lush formal gardens, and features a historic, stunning Georgian-style manor house located only an hour from Washington, D.C. Enter through the stately gated entrance on tranquil Springs Road, where a gatehouse marks the beginning of a gently winding 1.5-mile drive. This scenic journey, flanked by rolling hills, ponds and picturesque stone bridges, culminates in the arrival to the exquisite manor house, set along a signature maple tree-lined driveway. Originally built circa 1776 and thoughtfully expanded in the early 1900s with the expertise of nationally renowned architects Arthur Little and Herbert W.C. Browne, the manor boasts of 22 bedrooms, which include 12 dedicated staff quarters. Grand living, dining, and ballrooms make it an ideal setting for entertaining, while the estate’s design prioritizes privacy and offers breathtaking views. The extensive primary suite includes adjacent sitting rooms and a kitchenette, complemented by a stunning terrace overlooking the rolling hills and pastures. North Wales features eight residential tenant dwellings, including an exquisite carriage house with a five-bedroom apartment, horse facilities, tranquil ponds, and sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Protected by a conservation easement with the Virginia Outdoor Foundation, the estate allows for the creation of additional private recreational facilities, such as a world-class equestrian operation or a nine-hole private golf course. As one of America’s great estates and a national treasure, North Wales is proudly listed on both the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register.
