Welcome to Eagle Ridge—a refined country estate on 152 acres of rolling pasture, mature hardwoods, and 82 acres of 20-year-old loblolly pines. This 4,500 sq ft custom home features 10' ceilings, solid hickory floors, 8' mahogany doors, and Pella casement windows. The kitchen offers Viking appliances, a double-height 11' island, and level 7 Monaco quartzite. The main-level primary suite includes a spa bath with an 8' x 5' zero-entry shower, double rain heads, and full-height tile. A second main-floor bedroom with an 18' ceiling and four upstairs bedrooms provide flexibility. The great room stuns with a full-height stone fireplace, a custom burled redwood mantle, timber trusses, and cedar plank ceilings. Built with HardiPlank board-and-batten siding, Douglas fir beams, and extensive insulation, the home has a fully conditioned crawl and attic. Outdoors: 1,300+ sq ft of stamped concrete porches, 3 stocked ponds, riding trails, and a 4,200 sq ft barn with secure storage.

Certain estates exist in a category entirely their own — where heritage, craftsmanship, and landscape converge so completely that the result feels inevitable rather than assembled. Walnut Hill Farm is such a place. The hand-crafted brick Georgian manor rises from forty acres of rolling Hanover County countryside with the unhurried confidence of something built to last centuries. It does not ask for your attention. It commands it. The Greek Revival-influenced manor — completed in 1954 by celebrated Richmond philanthropists Harwood and Louise Cochrane and comprehensively renovated by the current owners — delivers more than 6,500 square feet of living space with irreplaceable architectural character. The home is grand in its formal rooms and gracious in its informal ones, with bedrooms of impressive proportion each offering its own en suite bath. Heart pine floors, ten-foot ceilings, and an extraordinary collection of reclaimed woodwork, mantels, reeded pilasters, fanlights, and carved millwork from the storied Long Branch Estate (c. 1816) create an interior with a patina that is impossible to duplicate today. Centuries-old towering oaks, extensive mature landscaping, formal walled and topiary gardens, a one-acre pond, and 700 feet of South Anna River frontage set a scene of timeless Virginia grandeur. The estate’s offerings are equally compelling: a brand new showstopping chef’s-grade kitchen and breakfast room, a primary suite wing of exceptional breadth and scale, a top-of-the-line equestrian barn and fenced pastures (completed in 2023), a guest cottage ideal for multigenerational living, a conditioned art studio, an idyllic saltwater pool, and a stunning outdoor living pavilion with a pergola, kitchen, and cobblestone fireplace — to name but a few. Approximately fifteen minutes to Short Pump and twenty minutes to western Richmond, Walnut Hill Farm offers the rarest of combinations: genuine country grandeur with effortless suburban access.
