Alexandria isn’t the only place in Northern Virginia where you can find historic homes. Make your way to Waterford and take a glimpse of Hedgeland Manor, a Georgian-style home that dates back to 1810. Originally owned by Colonel James Hamilton, Loudoun County’s first representative to the Virginia House of Burgesses, this estate has been restored and upgraded by its current owners.
Inside this 215-year-old home, you’ll see how the design combines historic charm with modern luxuries. The main house features preserved heart pine floors, plaster walls, millwork, and fireplaces — along with four bedrooms, five bathrooms, and nearly 4,400 square feet. The property at 40035 Hedgeland Ln. in Waterford is currently listed for $3.6 million.
When guests come to visit, you’ll want to direct them to the formal sitting room. The jewel-toned room is filled with natural light and includes one of seven working fireplaces throughout the home.
The chef in your household will appreciate this fully renovated kitchen. It’s got all of the gadgets, including Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Cove appliances. The center island provides plenty of dining space for those late-night snacks.
This cozy library looks like it’s something right out of your favorite movie or book. Position your overstuffed chairs in front of the fireplace and kick back while you dive into your next read.
There’s no better way to start your day than with a coffee in the sunroom. The expansive windows allow you to take in the views of the Blue Ridge Mountains, while the vaulted ceiling makes the room feel even bigger.
Head up one of the home’s two staircases to find the primary bedroom. This relaxing space also features a custom dressing room with built-in shelves, fireplace, and ensuite bathroom.
Just a few short steps from the main manor house is the Carriage House. Inside, there are three bedrooms and one bathroom. The home has been fitted with an upgraded kitchen.
Make your way to the barn for even more living space – about 3,000 extra square feet to be exact. You can use the space for family gatherings or as a guest house. The detached structure features hardwood floors and wood beamed ceilings that add to the rustic, yet luxurious feel of the space.
The barn also features a full kitchen, bedroom, office space, and one-and-a-half bathrooms.
The lower level is where you’ll find plenty of flexible space. While it’s currently set up as an arcade and gym, this area can hold up to eight cars and includes a half bath.
All of the buildings sit on more than 40 acres of land. If the three living spaces weren’t enough, the property also includes 250 acres of trails, a spring-fed pond, in-ground pool, hay fields, spring and smokehouses, and unmatched views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
