220-acre historic estate offering an exceptional blend of natural beauty, rich heritage, and thoughtfully
restored residences. Once home to Channing Meade Smith of Mosby’s Rangers, the property is defined
by sweeping valley views, abundant wildlife, and a diverse landscape that is approximately 60% open and

...Set in a quiet and picturesque valley just south of Delaplane, Virginia, Montana Farm is a remarkable
220-acre historic estate offering an exceptional blend of natural beauty, rich heritage, and thoughtfully
restored residences. Once home to Channing Meade Smith of Mosby’s Rangers, the property is defined
by sweeping valley views, abundant wildlife, and a diverse landscape that is approximately 60% open and
highly usable, with extensive frontage along Big Branch.

The circa 1852 main residence has been meticulously restored, combining historic character with modern
systems and conveniences. The exterior features distinctive scored stucco, a metal roof, and a stone
terrace, all executed with careful attention to detail. Inside, hardwood floors, high ceilings, and two
fireplaces create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The main level opens to a central front hall that flows
seamlessly into a gracious living room with a gas-log fireplace and tall windows that fill the space with
natural light. A separate dining room offers a wood-burning fireplace and similar bright exposures. To the
rear, the home features a thoughtfully designed kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a casual dining
area with direct access to the stone terrace, and a cozy family room anchored by a wood stove. A powder
room tucked beneath the staircase completes the main level. Upstairs, the second floor includes three
bedrooms and two updated full baths. The primary suite offers an en-suite bath with double vanities, while
two additional bedrooms share a hall bath. Laundry is conveniently located on this level.

Outdoor living is equally appealing, with a rear stone terrace enhanced by a charming pergola, mature
landscaping, and historic boxwoods. Just beyond, a beautifully restored three-level stone Patent House,
dating to circa 1840, provides additional conditioned space full of character currently used as an office.
Supporting structures and amenities throughout the farm are extensive. A renovated two-bedroom, two-
bath tenant or guest house features wood floors, a wood stove, a loft, and inviting porches and decks,
including a covered rear deck with long valley views. A separate mountain cabin, known as the “House in
the Woods,” has undergone exterior restoration and presents an opportunity for interior completion.

The property is well-equipped for agricultural and recreational use with a greenhouse, gardens, and fields
for livestock plus a network of trails ideal for hunting and hiking. Numerous outbuildings include a new
equipment barn and several restored pre-Civil War farm buildings.

Protected under a Fauquier County Open Space Conservation Easement with one potential division right,
Montana Farm lies within a highly preserved and scenic area. Accessed via Carrington Road, the
property offers both privacy and convenience, with easy access to I-66, Dulles International Airport,
Northern Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Montana Farm represents a rare opportunity to own a legacy
estate in one of Virginia’s most beautiful valleys. See Property Features in Document section
