Property Description

SOLD! Wilton is a beautifully preserved and expertly restored historic property that appears today much as it did when patriot William Churchill, II had this elegant manor home built in 1763. Encompassing almost 26 acres within view of the Piankatank River, near present day Hartfield, this property consists of a 4,040 sq ft main house, a 19th-century restored log cabin and an original two-room dependency dating to the 1840's. A scenic meandering driveway, parklike setting and beautifully landscaped grounds set the tone for all that awaits inside. Quite possibly the best-preserved privately-owned pre-revolutionary era home remaining in Virginia, Wilton is the perfect marriage of a fully intact colonial era home with the modern amenities, updates and conveniences that are so sought after today. Having undergone a thorough but sensitive restoration, the historic integrity of Wilton remains and sets it apart as a property without equal in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The original historic fabric, workmanship and ambiance of ages past still live at Wilton! Three ensuite bedrooms, main living level half bath, geothermal heating/cooling, spacious kitchen, high-end fixtures and lighting throughout, floor receptacles, heart pine floors, stairs, finishes, mantels, hardware & more. Featured on the cover of The Chesapeake House, published by the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation and in numerous other books, articles and publications. Wilton is an icon in the Tidewater Region of Virginia. Conveniently located with easy access to Mathews, Gloucester, Urbanna, Colonial Williamsburg, Deltaville, Irvington, Kilmarnock and the greater Northern Neck. Deep water marinas, world-class dining, fresh seafood, small towns, shopping, galleries, farmers markets and the open waters of the Chesapeake Bay await. Convenient to Virginia Beach and Washington, DC.
