About this home
Set on 102 acres just outside Charlottesville, Shack Mountain is a remarkably private estate where architectural legacy and landscape exist in quiet balance. Designed by renowned architectural historian Fiske Kimball and inspired by Thomas Jefferson’s design for Farmington, the residence reflects a rare level of intention—where proportion, symmetry, and setting are considered at every turn. Approached by a long, unassuming drive, the property opens to sweeping views and complete seclusion. The home itself is elevated yet restrained, offering a sense of permanence without excess. Light moves beautifully through the interiors, while each room maintains a quiet connection to the surrounding landscape. The acreage provides a setting that is both expansive and deeply personal—rolling land, mature trees, and a sense of calm that is increasingly difficult to find within such close proximity to town. Grand in its provenance yet intimate in experience, Shack Mountain is not simply a historic residence—it is a place to live thoughtfully, privately, and with a deep connection to both architecture and land....
