17736 Auburn Rd

Auburn Farm, on the National Registry of Historic Places, consists of 422 acres of fertile soil set against a backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Auburn’s primary land use is crop production, although its gently rolling topography is suitable for any number of alternative uses, including cattle pasture, equestrian facilities, wedding venue and more! The Greek Revival manor house - waiting for the next steward to restore it to its full glory – occupies a central elevated location that provides expansive views of the surrounding landscape and features wide center halls, rooms of generous proportion all enhanced by heart pine construction. The original summer kitchen with upper-level sleeping quarters is just outside the rear of the home. The property also contains other domestic and agricultural outbuildings, illustrating the long history of farming practiced on the estate. Dating back to 1855, Auburn has hosted both Generals Robert E. Lee and Ulysses S. Grant, witnessed Cavalry battles in and around Brandy Station -- making this property a great conservation easement candidate!! Shown by appointment only.
