countryside living in A historic 18th Century estate
Welcome to gorgeous and historic Green Springs Historic Farm! Conveniently located just 20 miles from Charlottesville, VA and surrounded by Virginia's finest wineries, the estate provides the perfect break from city life.

The drive leads to the 1772 Manor house surrounded by 3 historic, quaint cottages that have been renovated with today’s modern amenities. Come and re-live & experience this preserved time capsule.
ABOUT THE OWNERS
Nico, originally from Holland, has worked all over the world and Kim has been a working actress and model predominantly based in Los Angeles and New York. Their paths crossed over 31 years ago on a flight from London to LA, and nothing has been the same since!
Since they met, it has been their dream to live on a farm; little did they realize this farm would be historic and in Virginia. The tree-lined driveway, beautiful buildings, rolling pastures, and wooded forests with the Blue Ridge Mountains in the backdrop, they knew this was the dream they always wanted and they wanted to share their love with anyone who is interested.
