Wow! “Mickle Knox”, Circa 1845. On 358 acres in Virginia. $1,375,000

September 26, 2024

Wow. Considering the acreage with this property, the price doesn’t seem all that bad! There is even a private golf range. “Mickle Knox” was built in 1845. It appears there was an earlier structure dating back to 1762 and one of the outbuildings dates back to that time. Mickle Knox is located on 358 acres in Dillwyn, Virginia. If it were mine, I would undo some of the trendier stuff. There is a barn on the property with roughed in plumbing. Five bedrooms, six bathrooms and 4,576 square feet. $1,375,000

From the Zillow listing:

 

Mickle Knox c1845, originally established in 1762, comprising 358 acres, seemlessly blends historic charm and modern luxury. The home now boasts five ensuite bedrooms, a beautifully updated kitchen, central air and heat, plus a stylish outdoor kitchen perfect for entertaining. At the same time original details have been preserved combining old and new to offer the best of both worlds. Also added is a pavilion for gatherings and there are outbuildings ready for new uses. The barn, with roughed-in plumbing, provides a blank canvas for transformation, and the yellow outbuilding, dating from 1770, could be the perfect office or honeymoon suite. Mickle Knox continues to evolve, offering a welcoming home rich in history and comfort. Please do not drive in without an appointment. Detailed brochure in the documents section.
