DUFFEY LANE
Middleburg, Virginia
FAMILY COMPOUND. NEW HOME SITE. INCOME PRODUCING PROPERTY.
This property present an interesting array of opporunities not often found under today’s restrictive property development ordinances so close to the town of Middleburg. As a result of the property’s tenant houses and outbuildings legacy from the time of Mount Olive, it is unique. Duffey lane would be perfect as a family compound with 3 totally separate and unique residences plus a detached studio/home office/guest house. Each residence can be expanded by right, perfect for extended family, friends, guests or tenants. A new, large Main House can be constructed with the removal or re-purposing (i.e. create a two car garage or stable) of one of the existing residences. For example, The Stone house could be expanded to take full advantage of the wonderful pastoral views of neighboring “Stonyhurt,” perhaps making the Shingled Cottage into a two car garage. A number of wonderful sites can be found on the property if someone would like to build a new, large main residence.* This property and all of the dwellings have been extensively updated and are ready for the next chapter.

PROPERTY: This property is comprised of 12+ acres of private, partially wooded land with pastoral views from the Main Stone House. Enter through stone gate posts down to a graveled driveway shaded by towering hardwoods. This property was once part of a large estate called ‘Mount Olive.’ Adjacent to this property is the house of Mount Olive, which is known today as ‘Stonyhurst’. Originally on this parcel were barns, storage sheds, outbuildings and numerous tenant houses. Duffey Lane named after the family that resided for generations at Mount Olive, including the past owner, Mr. Louis Duffey, a well-known local horseman. Foxcroft Road contains some of the best ride out in the area with miles of trails in the Middleburg Hunt Territory.
RESIDENCES: The property boasts three residences and a guest house/studio. The driveway has been re-graveled and a circular drive was added in front of the Toll House and the Studio. The dense woods were thinned, but towering oaks, hickory and others remain. A number of wonderful sites can be found on the property if someone would like to build a new, large main residence.

Main Stone House: Classic Stone house built circa 1914, this dwelling was likely built for Mount Olive’s farm managers. Constructed of Virginia field stone, it features lovely details including hardwood floors, deep set windows, beamed ceilings and a massive stone fireplace. The recent renovation has updated this home entirely.
Toll House: Believed to have been the ‘toll house’ for Foxcroft Road. This small stucco cottage has undergone a complete and meticulous renovation using superb quality details. Preserving its ‘cottage’ appeal, it has now become a charming 2 bedroom, one bath home. In addition to the visible changes made to this house, a brand new septic system was installed. The yard is fully fenced for dogs.
The Studio: This space was renovated into a wonderful Studio/Guest House/Home Office across from the Toll House. It has brand new wood floors, new windows, a full bath, lovely Jotul wood stove and a small back flagstone patio for entertaining.
Shingled Cottage: Another former tenant house belonging to Mount Olive, this two bedroom, one full bath shingled cottage needed only minor upgrading by the current owner. It has a fully renovated kitchen and bath, with all new appliances, new hardwood flooring on the first floor and was painted inside and out.
Outbuildings: Behind the Toll House and the Studio are several original storage sheds and buildings. All have been improved. Next to the Shingled Cottage is a detached two car garage. In front of the Main Stone House is a charming matching stone ‘pump house’.
