Virginia Estates: Hounds, Horses, Farmettes and Luxury
Southeastern Virginia, and specifically the Williamsburg area,
is steeped in the history of some of the great land barons of
the colonial, revolutionary, and civil war eras. Though the
great men and women who once lived in these historic properties
are now departed, their estates remain as a legacy to the early
American traditions once practiced there. A recent article by
VirginiaBusiness.com, revealed a new trend in estate purchasing.
Many estate purchasers are relocating from California and the
Northeast to Virginia estates so they may live on larger parcels
of land with more privacy. The National Register of Historic
Places lists 2,000 state properties in Virginia. Some of these
estate properties are in a state of disrepair. A revival in the
purchase of Virginia estates may mean that many will be
purchased and renovated. Historic Virginia estates and country
estates will likely continue to increase in value because of
their uniqueness and connection to American history.
Contemporary estate builders and purchasers are also selecting
Virginia as a site to showcase their custom built homes, because
of its colonial legacy, marriage with American traditions, and
ample parcels of land for building modern estates.
Virginia Estate Locations Farms and estates are plentiful in
various places in southeastern and central Virginia including
counties that border waterways or are early American landmarks
such as: New Kent, Northumberland, Gloucester, Surrey, Isle of
Wight, Dinwittie, Sussex, Essex, Richmond, Westmoreland,
Caroline, Hanover, Middlesex, Matthews, Orange, King and Queen,
and King William. These counties are mostly rural, and remain
steeped in old southern lifestyles.
Geographic Locations of Virginia Estates I am a RE/Max Realtor
in Williamsburg, Virginia and I am a buyer's agent for estate
purchasers. I'm in the perfect location to provide this service
because, during colonial times, Williamsburg was the capital of
Virginia. Many estates were built within a day's horse ride of
Williamsburg for proximity to the capital. Many traditional
Virginia estates are built on the waterfront, because the James,
York, Potomac Rivers and their tributaries and Mobjak Bay feed
into the Chesapeake Bay with ocean access. Travel and trade in
colonial times was mainly by boat and waterways.
Historic Virginia Estates Some estate properties have fallen
into disrepair, and need to be updated and renovated. Other
estate properties in Southeastern Virginia have been inhabited
for many generations by one family, and are well kept, with
mature hardwood forests, formal gardens, equestrian facilities,
guest cottages, and more. Some estates, such as the Berkeley
Estate outside Richmond, are income
producing properties with
herds of sheep, actively farmed land, and/or lodging facilities
and restaurants.
Land Parcels for Contemporary Luxury Estates in Virginia For the
real estate purchaser who wants to build a contemporary luxury
estate in Virginia, West, Southwest and Northwest of
Williamsburg are great locations. Here there is ample
availability of large parcels of land less than an hour's drive
to Richmond or Williamsburg. Areas outside of Williamsburg are
just beginning to develop, and land parcels will not remain
plentiful for too long.
Boating, Golfing, Recreation, Culture, Cuisine and Shopping Near
Williamsburg Williamsburg and the Southeastern Virginia area are
filled with some of the finest signature golf courses on the
East Coast, including Kingsmill and Ford's Colony in
Williamsburg. Marinas, boat launches, and waterfront estates
with piers are also available here. For recreation, families
love Bush Gardens and Water Country USA, Colonial Williamsburg,
and Jamestown Settlement and Yorktown battlefields. Cultural
events, excellent cuisine, and premier outlet mall shopping are
all available in the Williamsburg and Richmond area.
Estate Purchasers Need Representation Are you searching for a
historic or contemporary estate or farmette in Virginia? If so,
you need a buyer's agent who will represent you in this real
estate transaction. Transactions in Virginia are geared towards
protecting the seller because the seller pays commission, unless
the buyer has a buyer's agent agreement with a buyer's
representative. When searching for a buyer's agent, make sure
the designation ABR (Accredited Buyer's Representative) is
beside their name. Acquiring an estate property is a high-end
purchase. It is therefore critical that you agent is a certified
ABR and has years of experience in the Virginia real estate
market. A buyer may check how many years experience an agent has
by visiting the Virginia Department of Professional Occupational
Regulations (DEPOR). DEPOR will provide information about years
of experience in the real estate profession and provide
complaints filed against the realtor. Visit
