Private Opportunities

Private Opportunities for Discerning Buyers & Exceptional Properties

Some equestrian properties are best matched quietly — through intentional marketing, curated outreach, and a high level of discretion. From private horse farms with professional training amenities to storied country acreage with architectural character, these exclusive listings represent the most refined equestrian lifestyle in Charlottesville and Central Virginia.

Each offering is carefully positioned, intelligently marketed, and handled with the highest level of professionalism — connecting extraordinary properties with buyers who truly value land, horses, and the rhythm of country life.

Why Our Exclusive Equestrian Listings Stand Out

  • Specialized equestrian expertise: Focus on horse farms, riding estates, and country properties in Charlottesville & Central Virginia.
  • Discreet, targeted marketing: Ideal for sellers who prefer a quieter path to serious, qualified buyers.
  • Magazine-quality presentation: Professional photography, custom brochures, and narrative-driven descriptions for each farm.
  • Local & regional reach: Leveraging McLean Faulconer’s buyer network and Bridget’s equestrian connections.
  • Buyer-focused guidance: Personalized support for out-of-area and local equestrian buyers seeking the right fit.

Hilton Farm is a distinguished farm set on approximately 154 acres of beautiful Virginia countryside, offering a rare combination of history, scale, and equestrian function.

Bon Aire, a historic c. 1812 National Register home on 43 acres in Wingina, Virginia

Wingina, Virginia • Nelson County

c. 1812 Bon Aire | Equestrian Potential

43 Acres • National Register • Palladian Architecture

Set on 43 acres in the Virginia countryside, Bon Aire is an exceptional early nineteenth-century residence distinguished by its three-part Palladian form, Flemish-bond brickwork, pedimented center section, and beautifully preserved architectural detail. Inside, arched openings, fluted pilasters, original woodwork, late-Federal mantels, and graciously proportioned rooms reflect the craftsmanship and formality of the period.

Beyond the main house, the property includes a renovated cottage leased through October 2027, mature grounds, and the privacy of a substantial country setting. Bon Aire is a property where the architecture, history, and land remain inseparable from its character.

Status: $1,485,000 For Sale

ARE YOU THINKING OF SELLING

Central Virginia Is Horse Country. Let’s Present Your Farm So It Is Remembered.

Across Albemarle, Fluvanna, Greene, Louisa, Madison, Nelson, and Orange Counties, open fields, wooded ridges, quiet country roads, and Blue Ridge views give horse farms a strong sense of place. Buyers looking here want to see how the pasture, barn, fencing, riding areas, and house relate to the land and whether the farm feels practical as well as beautiful.

That understanding should begin before a showing is scheduled. A few casual photographs and a short description rarely convey enough, yet they can still bring unnecessary traffic through your home and property. Thoughtful marketing helps serious buyers recognize what makes the farm worth seeing while protecting your horses, your land, and your privacy.

YOUR PROPERTY

Showings Are Carefully Managed

Your farm, your horses, and your privacy are protected throughout the selling process, with careful control over showings, advance notice, qualified buyers, and respect for the daily routines that keep the property running smoothly.

By Appointment Only

Showings need at least 24 hours’ notice.

Qualified Buyers

I require proof of funds before a showing unless you prefer otherwise.

Present With Your Horses

With horses on the farm, I do my best to be there for every showing.

Always Informed

I provide feedback after each showing.

Quiet Options

If you would rather sell quietly, or prepare the farm before it goes on the market, we can plan that too.

“Their photography, videos, and description truly captured the beauty of our farm. They were there for every showing to safeguard our horses, and we sold at virtually our list price, even in an unpredictable market.” — Horse Farm Sellers

YOUR MARKETING

Buyers See More Than a Listing

Every Central Virginia horse farm I represent receives a careful pricing review and a complete presentation designed around the house, land, horses, and setting.

Photography & Drone Imagery

Professional images show the full lay of the land.

An Extensive Digital Brochure

It tells your farm’s story with the detail serious horse buyers look for. Buyers have told me it was the brochure that made them want to see the farm in person.

A Niche Network That Ranks on Google

My horse property websites perform on the first page of Google, placing the property in front of buyers already searching for a horse farm in Central Virginia.

Your Farm’s Own Web Page

Every property has a dedicated page with its video, photography, and brochure, making it easy for buyers, agents, and family members to understand and share the property.

Bridget Archer · McLean Faulconer, Inc.

Make Your Horse Farm the One Buyers Remember

When I list a horse farm, I understand the details an equestrian buyer notices—the relationship between barn, pasture, fencing, water, turnout, riding areas, access, and the house. I use that experience to present the farm clearly and beautifully, so buyers see more than acreage and stall count.

My signature digital brochures, property films and aerial imagery, specialized equestrian websites, and strong Google search visibility work together with McLean Faulconer’s established reputation and extensive buyer database to give your horse farm exceptional presentation and focused reach.

Seller Marketing Network

One Property. Four Search Paths.

Distinctive Central Virginia properties are rarely defined by one category. My specialized website network places them before buyers searching for horses, history, country estates, farms, acreage, and a life shaped by the land.

A broader stage for properties that deserve to be seen from more than one perspective.
