LOCATION: Highfields is located between the villages of Middleburg and Upperville in Southwestern Loudoun County. The property is nestled down a quiet gravel road just four miles North of Route 50 and 9 miles to Middleburg. It is a 45 minute drive to Dulles International Airport and an hour’s drive to downtown Washington DC.
PROPERTY: Highfields comprises 50 acres of mostly open, rolling land with some mature woods, meandering Beaver Dam creek and old stone walls. The property is situated within the heart of the Piedmont Fox Hound’s hunting territory and is protected by a Va. Outdoors Foundation (VOF) Open Space Easement. In fact, this tract of land once belonged to the famed Dulany family who founded both the Piedmont Fox Hounds and the Upperville Colt & Horse Show.
RESIDENCE: Highfields acquired it name as it sits atop a high field which provides spectacular views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and best of all, one cannot see another house! This custom-built home completed in 2005 and designed by noted Virginia architect Robert Bentley Adams has a European country feel that combines modern day conveniences with traditional Virginia architectural details. The house was beautifully sited so that the rooms are flooded with natural light and magnificent views. The flow of the house is open and comfortable. Facing the mountains is a large open flagstone terrace and an additional terrace which overlooks the pool. The main entrance to the house is enclosed by a private courtyard surrounded by stucco retaining walls; a two-story garage attached by a breezeway, and raised beds planted with English boxwoods.
