Property Description

Sunside Farm is a captivating private estate of over 100 acres with a unique combination of vineyards, orchards, farmland, almost a mile of creek frontage and a meticulously restored and renovated historic country home and guest cottage. Sunside Farm provides all of the wonderfully diverse elements of pleasant country living, including total privacy, mountain views, long stream frontage to a perfectly restored historic home and guest cottage. All of this natural beauty and country comfort is just a few minutes to shopping, restaurants, greet schools, and historic downtown Lynchburg.

Sunside Farm's original home was constructed c. 1820 of hand-hewn timbers and consisted of two rooms with fireplaces on the main level with a sleeping loft above and a detached summer kitchen. In the late 1800s, the front main wing was raised to two full stories and a two story back wing was added. Finally, in 2007, a beautiful timber frame great room was built in keeping with the orginal home’s architecture and the entire exterior was integrated and restored. The delightful, yet classic, adjoining guest cottage with interior continental flair was built in the very early 1900’s and recently renovated. The renovation of the main house and cottage included taking them down to their bare bones and transforming them into historic masterpieces with modern hearts.

At the top of the hill above the house are three acres of Viognier and Merlot grapevines protected by a tall deer fence. There are three thousand producing vines which produce high quality wine grapes. The vineyard is approximately 90% Viognier, which is currently the most sought after wine grape in Virginia. This is the perfect opportunity for an entrepreneur or boutique wine owner to continue to build on Virginia's reputation for wine while living in a piece of architectural history.
