About this property

Historic and Updated Farmhouse Built in 1808

Property Overview: This 200+ year-old home was built in 1808 and is just a few miles from Oatlands Historic House and Gardens. This home can comfortably fit up to four adults. The main, tan coloredm house is where you would stay and is a fully updated federal home, lovingly restored with thoughtful attention to detail. The kitchen has marble counters, stainless steel appliances, gas range, double oven, a Keurig with a variety of coffee pods, spices to use, air fryer, and a deep farmhouse sink. There is also both antique and/ or modern china to choose from as well.

This location is in the heart of Loudoun County's Civil War history sites as well as many wineries, breweries, cideries, and distilleries. Downtown Leesburg is 7 miles away, Middleburg is 11 miles away, and Aldie is 5 miles away. Dulles International Airport is approximately 20 miles from this home. Oatlands Historic Home and Garden is right around the corner, Morven Park is 10 miles away, and Salamander Resort and Spa is less than a 20 minute drive.

This home has its original oak hardwood floors throughout, built-in bookshelves, Dish satellite cable for the television in the main living space and master bedroom with a king sized bed, board games and other activities, and much more! The main level bedroom has a full bath with a washer/dryer. The upstairs loft can be used as a second, private bedroom, with two queen sized beds, desk, and sitting area.

There is also a 2nd dwelling (the brick structure behind the main home) that is currently vacant and being restored. This was the blacksmith's home of Oatlands but at this time, is not being rented. You will see building materials and a storage unit on-site for this 2nd home but it will be out of view of most of the windows of the home you would stay in.

Due to upcoming renovation projects on this 2nd dwelling, there is a 10-night maximum stay allowed (no exceptions).

Outstanding rental

If you’re looking for an excellent place to stay that’s very clean, has very comfortable beds to sleep in, and is close to everything then this is the place to stay. The owner was very responsive to a few simple questions and was just overall excellent to work with. Highly recommend staying here.

Don’t overlook this little gem

The cottage was everything it says it is and more! As you enter the front door and take your first look around you will know right away, you made the right choice. It’s just far enough and close enough. The cottage is close enough to the vineyards, the stores, restaurants and other points of interest and just far enough to feel you are in an entirely different world. To us, it was a wonderful visit and definitely on our list for a repeat.

Oatland Stay

Neat little home built in the 1800’s. Home was neat and clean with everything we needed for our stay in the Leesburg area. A bit out of town, but it was only 15 minutes from our daughter’s house.

Fantastic

The house was as described. Perfect location for what we wanted to do. Relax and see some sights. The kitchen is stocked with anything you would need to make meals/cook. All of us slept like babies as the beds were comfortable. Bathroom is fully stocked along with a little library if you're a history buff. Lots of battlefields are close by. If you're looking to go into DC for the day - Ashburn Metro is close (it's under an hour train ride in)! Homeowner Jeremy was just a call away - although we never needed him as he's made a home away from home for whoever stays.

A gem in wine country

Oh my gosh! We were so thrilled with this home! It’s the perfect location, right off 15, literally! It’s warm and inviting, with a wonderfully stocked coffee bar, and all the kitchen utensils you could need. The bathroom has tons of little touches too, from floss, to towels and organic soaps and shampoos and such. The beds were super comfy, and really warm, which was nice on these fall evenings. Jeremy was very quick to respond to emails and very kind. I would definitely stay here again with friends and family on our next long weekend trip! L

Fantastic Farmhouse

This is THE BEST property I have stayed in, the epitome of a great vacation rental. The property is beautiful from the landscaping right down to the thoughtful decor and truly feels like being at home. Jeremy and Ali thought of every detail in furnishing this home with all the kitchen utensils you would ever need, bathroom amenities, board games, etc. Then they went above and beyond and welcomed me with cupcakes and cookies and my dogs with comfy crates, bowls and even toys. They are the consummate hosts providing very responsive communication without ever intruding on privacy. I just cannot say enough great things about this experience.

Great escape to Loudoun

This property is cute and is in a good spot south of Leesburg but close to Aldie/Middleburg. My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here. If you’re into gravel cycling, it’s also very close to some great riding.

We stayed at the property just for the weekend, but it was a lovely visit. The house was very clean and well furnished with all the kitchen things you would need and extra sheets and blankets. We texted Jeremy a question while we were there and he answered immediately. We did not use the upstairs since there were just two of us, but it was very nicely decorated. We’d definitely stay there again!

Lovely cottage at Oatlands with all the comforts of home

My husband and I had a wonderful weekend in this beautiful historic property. It’s not too far down Rt.15, so there are lots of restaurants nearby— and the Wegman’s is only 20 minutes away. We were truly able to relax when we wanted to. We found this home to be a particularly good value. Also we appreciated all the vintage, homey touches! At the same time, it’s nicely updated to include modern conveniences and is quite easy to live in.

We have lived in Northern Virginia for over 25 years and Loudoun County for 20 years. We have a great appreciation for the historical experiences this area has to offer along with all of the hidden gems there are to discover.

Why they chose this property

This property has endless potential for small family or friend gatherings, and culinary experiences. The kitchen is fully stocked with a spice rack, bakeware, saute pans, tupperware, silverware, and both antique and/ or modern china to choose from. The owners of this property are also willing to lend to renters whatever additional items they may need.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location! Feels very far from it all but is only 7 miles from downtown Leesburg and 11 miles to Middleburg.
