This is a rare opportunity to acquire a historic farmstead in rural central Virginia that is sure to enchant for generations to come. Long known by locals as "the Springs", the story of this property is rooted in centuries of Morris Family ownership. It was made famous in the 1800s by the enterprising Samuel Morris who operated a successful health resort called Buckingham Springs, where guests partook in the purported healing benefits of the local mineral spring water. While the hotel and cottages are long gone, the 4-story structure k/a The Morris House (c. 1810) stands renovated (2011) to modern standards, ensuring an elegant home w/ historic appeal & present day conveniences. There is ample room whether you enjoy a simple family meal in the spacious eat-in kitchen or entertain VIPs in the formal living spaces. Level 1 further offers a laundry room (plumbed for half bath), a full bath with walk-in shower, 3 FPs, a cozy den with built-ins, and a small home office that could serve as a first floor bedroom. Levels 2 & 3 boast the primary BR w/ensuite bath, 5 additional BRs and 2 more full baths. Fully conditioned, walk-up attic on Level 4 for storage or make it an artist's studio!
