About the host
Hosted by Win Blodgett
I grew up in Charlottesville and worked as a carpenter and builder for many years. I left town to do business in Florida for 26 years and returned to buy a horse farm with 5 houses on 57 acres where River Rock is located
Why they chose this property
One of the oldest and best shopping areas is Barracks Rd Shopping Center. One of the most scenic roads is Barracks Road which turns into Garth Road. As you head west on Gary you approach the Foxfield Racecourse and iconic the iconic Hunt Country Corner Store. Turning right on the Free Union Rd. You head toward Free Union which has some of the most beautiful farms and homes in Alelbemarle county.
What makes this property unique
River Rock is one of 5 homes on 57 acres. The entire property borders the Mechums River on one side. The house is at the top of a forested slope. Beneath the forested slope are horse fields and the river. Whether you want to just relax in the house, on the deck, or walk through the woods and fields, River Rock offers privacy and rejuvenation.
