luxury house with terrace for sale Palmyra, United States

Following a significant price reduction, Milton Farm represents one of the most compelling values on the market today. Set across 54 acres just 10 minutes from Charlottesville, the property combines a substantial main residence, three cottages, equestrian facilities, and an exceptional range of recreational amenities in a remarkably convenient setting. The nearly 8,000 square foot, five bedroom main residence is complemented by a pool, spa, and pool house with an outdoor kitchen and full bath. Beyond are a lighted sport court for pickleball and basketball, a sunken firepit, two ponds, wooded trails, open fields, and equestrian facilities including a three stall barn, paddock, run in shed, and outdoor riding ring. Together, the 54 acres function as a true family playground, with space to entertain, ride, explore, and enjoy the property throughout the year. Three separate cottages accommodate friends and family while presenting opportunities for rental use or reimagining to suit a future owner. A detached three car garage includes an upper level suite well suited for an office, gym, studio, or additional guest space. Milton Farm's location is equally notable. Positioned near Keswick Hall and within easy reach of Charlottesville, UVA, Downtown, and I 64, it also enjoys convenient access across town to Charlottesville's western side, often in less time than many farm and estate properties located west of the city. At its new price, Milton Farm presents a difficult combination to replicate: a significant residence, 54 private and highly usable acres, multiple guest cottages, extensive recreational amenities, and exceptional proximity to Charlottesville.

Set on 102 acres just outside Charlottesville, Shack Mountain is a remarkably private estate where architectural legacy and landscape exist in quiet balance. Designed by renowned architectural historian Fiske Kimball and inspired by Thomas Jefferson’s design for Farmington, the residence reflects a rare level of intention—where proportion, symmetry, and setting are considered at every turn. Approached by a long, unassuming drive, the property opens to sweeping views and complete seclusion. The home itself is elevated yet restrained, offering a sense of permanence without excess. Light moves beautifully through the interiors, while each room maintains a quiet connection to the surrounding landscape. The acreage provides a setting that is both expansive and deeply personal—rolling land, mature trees, and a sense of calm that is increasingly difficult to find within such close proximity to town. Grand in its provenance yet intimate in experience, Shack Mountain is not simply a historic residence—it is a place to live thoughtfully, privately, and with a deep connection to both architecture and land.
