Schuylark presents a rare and exceptional opportunity to own a secluded personal retreat nestled in the picturesque foothills of Central Virginia's serene Blue Ridge Mountains. Serving as the residence to the founders of the neighboring Quarry Gardens at Schuyler, a renowned 40-acre botanical garden of native plants, this land has been under the care and stewardship of naturalists and land management professionals for more than two decades. Historically owned by the famous Alberene Soapstone Company, the 540-acre property features varied topology and fascinating geology. The house has an informal charm, designed for the comfort of its owners as well as for guests and entertaining. It has approximately 3,700 square feet of living space including four bedrooms, three-and-a half baths, two offices, a great room with a book-shelved balcony, and a cozy TV room. The open kitchen and dining area offer a panoramic view over the lake and up to the mountains. The house sits on a 400-acre parcel that is under conservation and there is a separate parcel of 140 acres with no restrictions on its development rights. This separate parcel includes a rough house site with a well and a storage shed. Wildlife enthusiasts will appreciate the abundance of white-tail deer, black bears, and more than 100 species of birds. With almost a mile of Rockfish River frontage and over ten miles of well-maintained paths, roads, and trails, Schuylark provides endless opportunities for hiking, hunting, birding, fishing, mountain biking and related naturalist pursuits. The Quarry Gardens at Schuyler are notched into the Schuylark Property with a separate entrance. Developed to interpret the area's history of soapstone mining and to protect and showcase local ecosystems and native plant communities. The gardens provide the region with an active program of education and research opportunities. The amenities of the Gardens as well as the maintenance staff are available as a shared resource to the future owner of Schuylark.
