Stunning!!! Harborvale is a beautiful 51-acre estate, 5 minutes from historic Middleburg. The gated entry opens into a long, straight drive through an allee of vibrant trees, which leads to the stunning home. The drive then continues to the 3-car garage, the 5-stall stable and the 3-bedroom tenant house. Beautifully sited, the land surrounding the home is gently rolling and mostly open with gorgeous gardens, pastureland, fenced paddocks, and a spring-fed pond. Three automatic generators service this property's home, tenant house and stable.
Built in 2017 by the current owners, the previous home was taken down to the foundation leaving only the stone fireplace in the family room. The mortar from the previous exterior's stones was removed and the stones were used to build the current home. The original hearth stone is now the step at the entrance.
Heavy oak doors open into a covered entry of the home providing comfort for one's guests. Upon entering the foyer, one realizes that this home was built to showcase the tremendous light and views. To the right is an exquisite private suite with anteroom, which opens to the library with a wood burning fireplace and a full bath. To the left of the foyer is the elegant formal living room also with a wood burning fireplace. Returning to the foyer, the gleaming floors lead straight through the bar area into the light filled sunroom. The bar area features natural cherry cabinetry, access to the elevator, and a door leading to the basement. In the sunroom, one realizes how ideal this home is for elegant, as well as casual entertaining. Four sets of French doors provide tremendous light and open out to the terrace and stunning gardens of perennials, flowering and fruit trees. The sunroom is also adjacent to the grand dining room. At one end of the dining room, handsome, built-in cabinetry flank the French doors which open into the formal living room. At the other end of the dining room is a large walk-in bay window, which brings in the natural light. Beyond the dining room one enters the spacious family room/kitchen and breakfast room.
The family room features the original stone fireplace and a vaulted ceiling. It is completely open to the large breakfast area and the kitchen. Beyond the kitchen is the laundry room, mud room and a powder room.
Returning to the foyer, wide steps lead to the upper-level hallway. The hallway provides access to the primary suite, 3 additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and a laundry closet which houses a stacking washer and dryer.
