Vineyard Hill is a significant historic property in the scenic countryside between Lexington and Natural Bridge, with easy access to I-81. Originally the seat of a large farm owned by pioneering settler Alexander Beggs, the property was later owned by the ironmasters of nearby Buffalo Forge, who established a vineyard here after the Civil War and attempted to grow wine grapes for European export. The manor home has a rare Quaker plan, 20" thick limestone walls, hewn beams and handcrafted interior woodwork. Including the full grade-level basement and a walkup attic, the home has 4 stories, with 2-3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 modern baths. An old cooking fireplace highlights the tavern-like family room; gas-log fireplaces grace several rooms. In the recently renovated eat-in kitchen, a huge bay window overlooks inspiring Blue Ridge mountain views. Gourmets will appreciate the kitchen's high-end stainless steel appliances and abundant storage, and the quaint kitchen garden. A recent garage and barn offer options for sheltering treasured livestock or vintage cars, or hosting events. Stone outbuildings and well-landscaped grounds provide a gracious setting for outdoor entertaining.
