Property Description

Welcome to Elysian Fields Farm, a magnificent 56+ acre equestrian estate situated at 456 Marple Road in Winchester, VA. Spanning three distinct parcels and located just 10 minutes from the conveniences of town, this private retreat is defined by its timeless brick construction and a masterfully designed layout that harmonizes luxury living with top-tier agricultural infrastructure. The arrival experience is nothing short of grand, featuring a long, winding paved driveway framed by stately brick pillars and secure gates that lead over a private bridge above a serene, meandering stream. The rolling pastures and picturesque pond are secured by wood four-board fencing, all protected by a dense perimeter of mature hardwoods for ultimate seclusion. The main residence stands as a testament to enduring quality, showcasing superior solid-brick craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail throughout its sprawling footprint. The main level features gleaming hardwood floors throughout the formal living and dining rooms, both of which are bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling picture windows. While the home offers a sophisticated and polished atmosphere, the true heart of the home is the breathtaking, two-story family room, which boasts soaring wooden vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and a dramatic two-story brick fireplace with a cozy gas insert. The kitchen offers a warm, refined aesthetic with rich, cherry-toned cabinetry, stainless Whirlpool appliances, and a central island with seating. For additional entertaining space, a massive bonus room/den offers durable tile flooring, built-in shelving, a second impressive brick fireplace, and direct access to an expansive rear brick patio overlooking the flat, park-like yard and pastures. This level is completed by a bright bedroom, a full bath with double sinks, and a convenient laundry room. The upper level, which also features hardwood flooring throughout, houses the primary suite with a private ensuite bath, alongside two additional bedrooms and another full bath. The estate’s exterior is a triumph of functional luxury, defined by its expansive, well-managed acreage and professional-grade outbuildings. The equestrian centerpiece of the property is a large brick barn meticulously framed by white fencing; this multi-purpose facility features heavy-duty horse stalls with durable block construction and rubber mats, a dedicated workshop, and equipment storage space. Additionally, the barn includes a full bath and a flexible extra room—ideal for a private office, studio, or tack room. The surrounding landscape consists of lush, verdant pastures designed for optimal grazing and ease of rotation, further enhanced by a practical run-in shed positioned in the distance for field-kept livestock. Whether you are an avid equestrian or seeking a multi-generational family compound, this well-manicured estate offers the rare combination of architectural cohesion, functional farm utility, and serene country privacy.
