Property Description

INCREDIBLE VALUE for this historic home with (8) division rights. Bon Aire is not simply a residence, but a preserved historic estate set in open countryside, suited for those drawn to caring for a place with history and permanence. Peaceful, private, and removed from suburban activity, it offers a true country setting rarely found. Circa 1812 Federal-era estate overlooking the James River in Nelson County, VA, long associated with the Cabell family and showcasing classic Jeffersonian design, enduring craftsmanship, and original architectural details. Set on 43 acres with sweeping pastoral and river views, open fields, and wooded privacy. Set on generous acreage, the property offers privacy and space without requiring intensive upkeep. Many owners utilize local farmers to hay the fields, meaning the majority of the land can be maintained with little to no effort, offering the benefits of land ownership without the burden of managing it all. Separate cottage (currently rented) offers immediate income potential. Large barn with workshop and loft. Extensively documented restoration—search YouTube “Restoring Bonaire.”
