Property Description
rolling hayfields, mature woods, and the winding waters of Gap Run. An 1840s log cabin stands
within this breathtaking landscape, while some 30 acres of woods shelter old trails and secluded
stretches of stream. The property's elevated ground offers the possibility of a new homesite
amid the enduring beauty of Piedmont Hunt Country.
The old log cabin retains its early character, with a large living room, fireplace, and stairs to a
second floor. Beside the kitchen entrance, a spring still runs clear and cold, its edges thick with
watercress.
Behind the cabin, a tractor path climbs through the hayfield, with stunning views across the
farm below. Large stands of oaks rise along the hilltop, and the ground levels to a shaded
corridor along the woodland edge. Here, an opening leads into mature woods identified on early
surveys as “Jacob's Ladder.” Well-worn trails are maintained throughout by the Piedmont Hunt,
preserving the old network of travel through this extraordinary forest.
The wooded ground falls away to the south and east toward the deep water and wide bends of
Gap Run, while to the north and west it rises along a ridge behind the vast hayfield beside the
cabin. Here, at Brookside's highest elevation, the land commands sweeping views across the
countryside to the Cobbler and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The land is conscientiously protected under a conservation easement held by the Virginia
Outdoors Foundation.
