Bad Bull Farm

MT. GILEAD, LEESBURG, VA

Bad Bull Farm is a 47+ acre estate that is tucked away at the top of Mount Gilead overlooking the Blue Ridge Mountains. The serenity and privacy are further protected by the half-mile of frontage on the North Fork Branch.

LocationThe residence is in Western Loudoun County, close to Route 15 and the Dulles Greenway. It is a short commute to downtown Washington, DC and its environs. Washington, D.C. and surrounding major metropolitan areas can be easily reached in less than an hour. Washington Dulles Airport is less than 30 minutes away.

PropertyThe definition of "park-like", this unique 47+ beautiful acres offers magnificent views. Surrounded by large parcels and only minutes away from the center of historic Leesburg, the feeling of seclusion is tremendous. Spectacular sunsets over the Blue Ridge Mountains can be enjoyed from the large back porch. All of this privacy is just a short drive to the Washington Metropolitan area. The property also enjoys an unprecedented half mile of frontage on the North Fork Branch of Goose Creek.

Residence
The property faithfully reproduces local colonial building tradition. Old methods of construction and antique tools were used to build a modern home that looks 200+ years old. The log and clapboard home has been featured in national magazines and has been the winner of awards for use of recycled 200-year old materials salvaged from old Loudoun County barns and log cabins. The 4-bedroom, 3.5 bath home offers handmade chestnut cabinetry and hand-planed antique pine floors throughout. Four working fireplaces, including one in the master bedroom, enhance the ambience of the home. Modern conveniences such as a back-up generator, state-of-the art water filtration system, and security system complement the property for today's lifestyle.

A four car detached garage, artist studio, workshop and large storage barn complete the grounds.
