Tucked away in the quiet countryside of Lancaster County, Locusville is a rare and storied estate, offering 106 acres across four separate parcels. Built in 1855, this classic Greek Revival home stands as a proud testament to Virginia’s architectural legacy,  ready to be restored and revived for its next chapter. The residence, though in need of restoration, remains occupied with enduring original details, strong bones, and a timeless presence. From the fluted Doric columns to the grand central passage, the home’s craftsmanship and proportions reflect a bygone era of grace and simplicity. Once a vibrant farm and market, the land still carries the echoes of community, cultivation, and memory. Open fields, woodlands, and quiet clearings invite new possibilities;  whether for recreation, retreat, or returning the land to its agricultural roots. Locusville is more than a property. It is an opportunity to steward a piece of Virginia’s rural heritage. Ideal for those seeking history, acreage, and vision. Other highlights included a newer roof (5 years or less) and a geothermal HVAC system. This sale includes 3 additional lots: 25 180A, 25 180H, and 25 180I. ALL THIS could be yours for less than tax assessed value!
