About this property
The Sage Cottage at Chevy Chase Farm
Peaceful 350-acre cattle farm/estate in Central Virginia. Enjoy pastoral walks with over 2.5 miles of gravel trails—just 17 minutes from Scottsville and 35 minutes from Charlottesville. Visit historical sites including Jefferson's Monticello and James Monroe's Ashlawn Highland. Enjoy kayaking on the James River and multiple award-winning wineries and breweries within minutes of your stay. Equine enthusiasts welcome—a fenced yard for the pup & paddock for horses.
Sage Cottage is an oasis. The view from the back porch is spectacular. Enjoy quiet and peaceful nights with a cool breeze and fresh country air.
Our Store & Greenhouse
We have a farm store across the street and have fresh seasonal vegetables, meats, eggs and ice. We also have a large green house with plants, flowers and bushes year round.
Enjoy a grass-fed beef burger from our farm on the grill while sipping your favorite beverage around a beautiful brick fire pit.
We are a fully functioning cattle farm raising 100% grass-fed beef, pork, and Free Range Chicken Eggs. Our meats and eggs are available if you'd like and will be in your cottage when you arrive. Please look at our website for options, and send us a quick message to make arrangements.
