Located in the heart of prestigious Langley Farms, 1150 Chain Bridge Road exemplifies the timeless, understated elegance of the New England architectural style. A subtle stone wall covered with ivy embraces the estate and sets the stage for the exceptional landscape beyond. Gates open to reveal a carefully curated sequence of natural rooms, replete with boxwoods and specimen trees, which eventually reveal the residence. The landscape represents the inspired talent of English born landscape architect, Peter Cummins, who worked for years with the owner to create what has been described as one of the most beautiful gardens in Washington. The arrival court is finished with granite and carefully selected pea gravel to introduce the carefully curated specimen plants which compose a natural tapestry of color and texture. A discrete stone path leads to the southern garden revealing the sublime pool and tea house. Adjacent to the pool, stone walls frame the rose gardens which are filled with specimen plants collected from around the world. A koi pond centers the rose gardens creating yet another moment of visual beauty. To the north, the expansive lawn reaches to the edges of the estate to create the perfect place for a game of croquet or garden party. These outdoor rooms were specifically designed to provide multiple venues for outdoor entertaining as well as a place to play, stroll or simply stargaze with friends and family. Upon acquiring the estate in 2000, the current owner engaged renowned Boston interior designer, William Lewis Hodgins, to lead a multi-year effort to create timeless and elegant interiors. The house was effectively rebuilt from the inside out to perfect the scale and flow of the rooms in a manner which is evident immediately upon entering the front door. Hodgins worked closely with the New York firm of Fairfax and Sammons to detail the proportion and order of not only the rooms, but also the extensive yet understated millwork throughout the residence. The finely executed project was prominently featured in a number of books and publications, including Architectural Digest. Few estate residences in Washington capture the perfect flow and proportions found at Chain Bridge Road. The reception hall flows the width of the residence and provides the ideal point of introduction to the public rooms beyond. A gracious living room centers on a fireplace encased by an antique mantle piece from France. Just beyond, double doors reveal a library with built-in bookcases and another fireplace with an understated stone mantle piece. On the south end of the residence, a semi-circular garden room overlooks a southern terrace and the garden beyond. In the center of the house, an expansive kitchen affords space and amenities for the most ardent chef. The kitchen is flanked by a comfortable breakfast area on one side and a generous sitting area and work station on the other. A wide, gentle staircase leads to the private family bedrooms, including the primary suite which spans the southern end of the house. Double dressing rooms with custom wardrobe closets and cabinets are positioned beyond double doors. The primary bedroom is enveloped in a quiet mural depicting the Virginia countryside. On the lower level, an expansive gathering room centers on a fireplace and wet bar. An adjoining game room and exercise room benefit from french doors leading to the garden. A full cabana bath and changing room is equipped with a sauna. This level also features exceptional storage rooms for seasonal decor and the option of adding another full bath. The estate features impeccable systems, including medical grade HVAC, extensive security, and a whole house generator. Above the garage, an expansive suite with a living room, bedroom and full bath is accessible via a separate entrance providing staff quarters or a family office. Located just minutes from Washington, Chain Bridge Road is a timeless estate with no peer.

Welcome to Historic Mulberry Fields, situated on just under 500 acres of fertile land with a mile-long view of the Potomac River’s white sand shoreline, is truly one of a kind. As you drive along the cedar-lined driveway, you are transported back in time as the magnificent manor house appears in front of you. It is the only remaining Georgian manor house in St. Mary’s County today. From the south façade, the magnificent mile-long “Avenue Field,” lined with trees stretching to the Potomac River provides a breathtaking panoramic view downhill to the white sandy riverbank. The interior of the manor house is of simple and educated taste. The grand center hall and the 2 front (south) rooms (the great room and dining room) have walls of rectangular raised panels to the ceiling, making it one of the most completely paneled 18th-century houses in Maryland. Throughout the house, many original moldings, doors, and mantels are intact. Air conditioning and heating were added to all rooms. The owners retained an architectural firm and have plans - approved by the Historic Trust - for a renovation that would enlarge the kitchen, the bathrooms and adding another wing to the house on the west side. Flanking each side of the north entrance are 2 historic dependencies, both similar in design. Each is of brick, 2-story in height. They were placed symmetrically north of the mansion, forming a rectangular court with the Kitchen Garden, Bowling Green and Orchard separated by a row of large boxwoods. These buildings were used as service buildings with the East dependency as “The Kitchen” and the West dependency as the “The Weaving House.” These structures were used to house slaves, such as cooks, stable hands, waiters, and housekeepers who were tasked with running the household and gave the mansion and outbuildings the appearance of a busy village. “The Kitchen” has been remodeled and now serves as a guest cottage, while the “Weaving House” retains its original historic riven clapboard partition walls, floors, doors, and hardware. Next to the 2 dependencies flanking the Manor House are numerous other historic buildings, such as the “Dairy” and the “Meat/Smoke House” (both east of the Manor House). Other historic buildings include a Carriage House, a Garage/Tool Shed, an Art Studio, a Pole Barn, a Horse and Cattle Barn, a Tobacco Barn, a remodeled Sheep Barn, 2 Equipment Barns, a Farmhouse, and an old dwelling that could be remodeled and turned into a rental unit. Several buildings were added in the 1930s. These include 6 occupied rental units, incl. 3 units in what was previously the Sheep Barn, a 4-BR Farmhouse, a 1-BR Cottage in the renovated “Kitchen" and a 1-BR Trailer. Taken together, these currently produce an income of $70,000. Add'l income is provided by leasing the fields for farming and from the U.S. Navy that keeps a navigation signal on the Potomac River. More income can be obtained by renovating some of the existing buildings. With that Mulberry Fields could have a total of twelve rental units. Mulberry Fields was added to the National Registry of Historic Places in 1973. The Maryland Historical Trust Deed of Easement ALLOWS LIMITED INDUSTRIAL OR COMMERCIAL activities to be conducted at Mulberry Fields if the external appearances of its buildings are not altered (please ask for more info). Owners of Mulberry Fields must abide by a Conservation Easement, a Historical Preservation Easement, and three Rd Easements. Appr. 100 acres of land is leased out for farming and 300 acres is forest. This unique historic property is close to Leonardtown, Lexington Park and Solomon’s Island with numerous historic sites, wineries, antique shops, art galleries and restaurants, Deerfield Airport (private jet) as well as St. Mary’s County Regional Airport. 1h15 min drive to Washington DC and its major airports - Dulles Int’l Airport, and Reagan Nat’l Airport.

Set amid the picturesque countryside of Upperville, Virginia, Ayrshire Farm rises from the landscape with a presence that feels both timeless and stately. Encompassing 571 acres in the heart of the Virginia Piedmont, the estate is rich in heritage, design, and purposeful land stewardship. Few properties in the region balance these elements with such ease or at this scale. The manor house, completed in 1912, stands as the estate’s architectural anchor. Constructed of fieldstone quarried from the property, its four-foot-thick walls and steel-reinforced structure were bold innovations in their day. The residence carried the rare distinction of offering electricity, indoor plumbing, and central heating at a time when such comforts were little more than distant ideas for most of the country. More than a century later, its original cypress windows, beams, and intricate masonry speak to a standard of craftsmanship that endures with remarkable clarity. In recent years, the home has undergone a careful and comprehensive restoration, bringing modern performance and convenience to its historic framework. Its 17,000-square-foot interiors have been methodically rewired and re-plumbed, outfitted with three-phase power, central air, underground utilities, and a sophisticated security and communication system. Twelve restored fireplaces, finely calibrated lighting, locally crafted cabinetry, and an English conservatory designed by Glass Houses of England reflect a discerning approach to preservation. The materials, textures, and architectural details that define the residence create an atmosphere of quiet grandeur, grounded in authenticity rather than overt opulence. Ayrshire Farm’s influence extends far beyond the manor. The property became the first in Virginia to achieve both Certified Humane and USDA Certified Organic status, marking a defining moment in the state’s agricultural landscape. Its fields, orchards, and pastures continue to support working organic operations, helping shape regional standards for sustainable and ethical farming. This commitment to the land is not ornamental; it is foundational to the estate’s identity. The natural setting surrounding the home is as compelling as its history. Upperville’s storied equestrian traditions blanket the landscape with a quiet sophistication unique to the Virginia Piedmont. Located just 65 miles from the heart of Washington, DC, and 35 miles from Dulles International Airport, Ayrshire offers a sense of escape without isolation. The charming village of Middleburg, with its boutiques, cafés, and equestrian heritage, lies only a short drive away, placing everyday conveniences and refined country life within effortless reach. To the west, the ridgelines of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the expanse of Shenandoah National Park form a dramatic horizon. Artists and filmmakers have long been drawn to this terrain, captivated by its pastoral simplicity and sense of permanence. Alfred Hitchcock’s Topaz was among the works filmed on the estate, a testament to the property’s cinematic presence. Today, Ayrshire Farm stands as one of the region’s most significant estate holdings, a rare convergence of architectural provenance, ecological leadership, and natural beauty. It is a property defined not only by its past, but by the clarity of its vision. In an area known for remarkable estates, Ayrshire remains singular, offering a balance of history, purpose, and place that feels both beautifully rooted and unmistakably relevant.
