Historic Eldon

2332 Oakville Road ~ Appomattox, VA 24522
MLS #631887       $850,000
NOW UNDER CONTRACT BUT WE HAVE OTHERS

Eldon is an impressive 3-story home on approximately 25 acres in the historic Appomattox VA countryside. Four tall white Tuscan pillars frame the spacious porch to welcome you to this 18-room mansion that was originally built in 1825.

Five south-facing gabled dormer windows and four tall white Tuscan pillars stand guard with wide porches on three sides of the 6000 sq.ft. home. It is an impressive sight. History is evident in the oak-paneled woodwork and 8 fireplaces that lend a commanding presence to the living spaces. Pocket doors were added in the 1800s to allow the entire downstairs to become one room where dignitaries, family, and friends gathered. In addition to the main home, the property also has a generator house as well as a separate cottage with its own kitchen. The three room generator house formerly contained an early generator which provided Eldon with electricity before it was available in the rest of the county.

Eldon was once home to Hal D. Flood, who was a member of the US House of Representatives and chairman of the Committee on Foreign Affairs from 1913 – 1919. Flood was also the author of the resolution declaring war on Germany and Austria in April 1917, and this home has likely hosted some important discussions through the years.

Cedar Glen

Historic Cedar Glen Farm
NOW SOLD, BUT WE HAVE OTHERS

Legend has it that George Washington once stayed at Cedar Glen while surveying Bedford County in Virginia. It is easy to imagine horse and rider galloping through the 124 acres of rolling farmland in need of an overnight stay. Think back to a time when children grew up with swings tied to trees, eggs were collected each morning, and the cows signaled their content in the fields. As you approach the house, you will notice the beautiful setting surrounded by mature trees. So the past can meet the present, the house now needs restoration to bring it back to life.

The land is 60% cleared farmland used for cattle and hay production. As with many historic properties, there is a cemetery where the original owners are buried. The rock wall surrounding the cemetery is extensive. The rolling topography is tucked into the base of Sharp Top Mountain. Adding to the picturesque setting are a pond and outbuildings. Cedar Glen offers an opportunity to restore a piece of history and enjoy life in this peaceful setting. Although the house would be an extensive restoration, the location and panoramic views will inspire you to consider life in the Bedford, Virginia, countryside.
