About This Home

As of February 2026

Named for its geographic relation to a nearby sister farm, The Upper Farm spans 595 acres in Albemarle County with sought-after Blue Ridge Mountain views. The property features a 20-acre lake, over half a mile of road frontage, and a blend of rolling pastures and mature woodlands, offering numerous homesite options. Located just 14 minutes from the Charlottesville Albemarle Airport and a little over 25 minutes to UVA, this property uniquely combines scenic seclusion with convenient access. With 12 distinct parcels and an existing farmhouse that can be utilized or reimagined, The Upper Farm is primed for diverse opportunities—from agricultural ventures to creating an exceptional recreational retreat. Additional acreage across Simmons Gap Road is also available for expanded possibilities.
