Middleburg, VA

Wind Fields Farm is the quintessential Middleburg estate that has been meticulously restored and maintained, gracing 463 acres of Virginia’s most beautiful countryside.  Steeped in history and pastoral splendor, the farm enjoys picturesque surroundings of rolling fields, mountain views and absolute privacy.

A scenic country road approaches this wonderful farm hidden behind handsome tree-lined stone walls.  Through the lovely gated entry, a winding drive unfolds across beautiful fields and past one of several lovely ponds, a haven for water fowl.  Beyond lies the farm’s “hamlet” of strikingly charming eighteenth and nineteenth-century stone and clapboard structures.  Dominated by the gracious stone main residence, these include a charming guest cottage, office and barn complex, all framing a splendid walled courtyard with formal gardens and reflecting pool.

Wind Fields, a timelessly elegant eighteen-room Colonial, is a classic example of a Virginia farmhouse dating from the mid-19th Century. Gracious rooms of perfect proportions and detail highlight this exceptionally warm and inviting home.  Antique pine floors, nine fireplaces, detailed millwork, high ceilings, 8 bedrooms, 8 full baths and 3 half baths are among its features.  A recent renovation of the home’s gourmet kitchen was featured in Home and Design Magazine which enhances the gracious elegance and warmth of Wind Fields.

The magnificent acreage embraces fenced pastures, woodlands, extensive naturalized landscaping, cascading streams, numerous mature specimen trees, annuals, perennials, ponds and a long boundary along protected Goose Creek.  Lovely terraces, arbors and covered porches are accessed from various living spaces all providing places to enjoy the lovely gardens and bucolic vistas.

The offering of Wind Fields Farm is a rare opportunity, affording gracious country living in breathtaking surroundings.
