In southern Albemarle County Virginia , along the upper branches of the Hardware River and reaching up into the hilltops , there endures a farm , comprising 2,300 acres . About 1,100 acres are given to pasture ( supporting as many as 500 head of cattle ), 1,000 acres are conserved as managed forest and 200 acres are given to orchards and vineyards . A small area of the farm has also been dedicated to raising massive Belgian Heavy Horses .

105 widely scattered homesites are carefully situated in the seams of this agricultural land , commanding spectacular views of the foothills , farms , valleys and Ragged Mountain of Albemarle . Buyers are not merely homeowners , but also stewards of the land . Each homesite has been strategically positioned to ensure that the diverse activities of this working farm and managed forest are not in any way compromised , so that the land may remain productive in perpetuity .
