Description

Introducing Mayfield, a picturesque Virginia farmhouse set on a tranquil knoll amidst 5+ acres in North Garden. Built in 1905, this charming residence exudes New England-style elegance, offering stunning pastoral views of neighboring farms from every vantage point. Named after Eleanor May, the esteemed previous owner and the first female professor appointed at UVA’s Darden Business School in 1970, Mayfield embodies a rich legacy of refinement and sophistication. Eleanor's influence is evident in the architect-designed additions, handcrafted built-in cabinetry, and mature specimen trees she planted, imparting a classic New England sensibility to the property. Recent enhancements by the current owner include the addition of dry stack stone walls along the tree-lined drive and perennial borders surrounding the house. Conveniently located just 12 miles from the Rotunda, 5 miles from the Batesville Store with live music, and 1 mile east of Pippin Hill Vineyard, Mayfield offers a rare opportunity to embrace the epitome of Virginia living.
