Ben Lomond, circa 1730 - 1735, is a historically significant estate of classic Georgian proportions in Essex County, Virginia, 4.9 miles south of Tappahannock. The manor house is beautifully sited on a high hill above the Rappahannock River Valley, with views still visible from the rooftop observatory and second-story windows. Vast lawns and ancient, towering trees, including several varieties of magnolia, oak, walnut, and rivers of daffodils, define the grounds and are among the hallmarks of this exceptional property. Originally built as a side-hall Federal, with two stories above a high English basement, Ben Lomond was enlarged and transformed around 1840 by its then-owner, Muscoe Garnett, who added the east-end additions, mirrored chimneys, hip roof and Georgian elements visible today. This truly elegant country home is a serene oasis with 18- to 24-inch-thick brick walls, updated systems, deep window wells, and welcoming interior spaces that truly captivate. Copper roof on the main house, copper gutters, fenced 20-by-40-foot in-ground Gunite pool, extensive hardscape, and an unforgettable screened porch with bluestone floor further distinguish this property from all others currently offered in the region. VCU Tappahannock Hospital, medical facilities, shopping, full-service marinas, fine and casual dining, golf, art galleries, antiques, historic sites, wineries, farmers' markets, and a regional airport are all within minutes. The property is conveniently located for travel to Richmond, Fredericksburg, Williamsburg, the Northern Neck, and less than two hours from Washington, D.C. This extraordinary property has witnessed the founding of a nation and has welcomed visitors and friends for over 290 years. Offered for purchase in two parcels totaling 64.36 acres. Previously featured in Virginia Living magazine, a previous site of Rappahannock Community College's Preakness Party, and also previously on Virginia’s Historic Garden Week tour. A true historic treasure on the Middle Peninsula of Virginia.
