Nestled in the heart of Manakin Sabot, this exceptional community offers a lifestyle defined by natural beauty. Miles of bridle trails, a stunning 100+ acre private lake, and direct access to the James River create an outdoor experience that feels far removed from the everyday. For those who appreciate the extraordinary, Sabot Hill also features a private runway for the aviation enthusiast. All of this is just a short buggy ride from your Contemporary Farmhouse, sitting on over 26 private acres. Welcome to 794 River Road West—a one-of-a-kind estate offering over 4,400 square feet across three thoughtfully designed living spaces. The main residence, private garage apartment, and charming reading cabin provide flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, equestrian pursuits, or a quiet personal retreat. Inside, timeless character meets modern luxury. Reclaimed Amish barnwood floors add warmth and authenticity, while the chef’s kitchen features Wolf appliances—including a steam oven—alongside a Sub-Zero refrigerator and leathered granite countertops. Built with structurally insulated panels, the home delivers exceptional energy efficiency and year-round comfort. A towering natural stone fireplace creates a striking focal point and the perfect setting for sunset views. The garage apartment showcases cedar paneling milled directly from trees on the property, creating a meaningful connection to the land. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the Superior Walls foundation and standing seam metal roof to Hardiplank siding and natural stone veneer. A whole-house generator and advanced water filtration system provide peace of mind. The land is compromised of an ideal balance of mixed timber and pasture land bordered by Dover Creek. Enjoy access to Dover Lake for trophy fishing, a lake cabin, cooking pavilion, and the lowgrounds boat ramp on the James River.
