About the Listing COMPS5 - 3085760

A timeless Hunt Country estate where elegance meets ease. Ideally positioned between Upperville and Delaplane, on the edge of coveted Mellon land and within Piedmont Hunt territory, Seaton Place Farm unfolds across 55± acres of rolling pasture, mature trees, and sweeping lawns. It is the kind of setting that feels cinematic in every season—classic, composed, and unmistakably Middleburg. At its heart, the circa-1840 brick residence—spanning approximately 5,800 square feet—sits gracefully within a series of curated outdoor spaces: stone courtyards, a koi pond, a marble and wrought-iron rotunda, an outdoor entertaining terrace with stone hearth, and a pool designed for long summer afternoons. Inside, historic character and modern livability are seamlessly intertwined. Original elements—exposed brick, antique floors, hand-blown glass, and vintage mantels—are balanced by refined updates, including beautifully renovated baths and a light-filled primary suite with private balcony overlooking the grounds. The standout is the newly reimagined chef’s kitchen and great room wing—published and thoughtfully designed—featuring an imported Lacanche range, custom cabinetry, premium appliances, and a soaring cathedral ceiling anchored by a stone fireplace. It’s both showpiece and gathering space. The main residence offers four bedrooms, three full baths, seven fireplaces, a two-car attached garage, and views in every direction. A separate carriage house provides a fully independent three-bedroom, two-bath residence with full kitchen, generous porches, and detached garage. Currently operating as a highly successful Airbnb with consistent five-star reviews and repeat guests, it offers both flexibility and income potential. The grounds are equally compelling. A private Par 3 golf course—with three professionally designed greens and 11 tee boxes—delivers a low-maintenance, year-round playing experience. A large pond with dock, expansive barn complex, and thoughtfully designed outbuildings support both equestrian and country pursuits. The barn includes six stalls with individual paddock access, a hot and cold wash stall, dual tack rooms, loft storage, and additional space suited for carriages, equipment, or a gym. Additional features include multiple run-in sheds, fenced pastures, a creek-fed lower field, chicken houses, a greenhouse, and a fully fenced garden—creating a complete and functional gentleman’s farm. This is a property that lives like a private resort—offering space for riding, golfing, fishing, entertaining, or simply unwinding in total privacy. Seaton Place Farm is more than a home. It is a legacy setting—one that captures the essence of Hunt Country living at its most refined.
