Nestled into the rolling hills of Virginia’s horse, wine, and hunt country, the house is a short distance from 18th century village of Middleburg, which CNN recently listed as one of the world's 'Ten Romantic Destinations You Should Know About', and less than 10 minutes from local farm-to-table restaurants, markets, butchers, and bakeries in nearby Marshall.

Renters receive a welcome packet with recommended activities and destinations in the area as well as information about the house. Note that the original structure of the house dates back to 1880, with two subsequent rear wing additions. You will find steps between these additions on both the ground and second floor levels as the house is nestled into a hill. These steps are in addition to the front and rear staircases connecting the first and second floor levels.
Soak in the charm of country life from the covered front porch of Magnolia Hill, which gives way to picturesque views of a 40-foot magnolia tree and a rambling creek that crosses the front of the property. In warmer months fire up the barbecue grill and host a garden party in the large backyard, where you can watch the sun set behind an abandoned silo, and both horses and cows that graze across the ridge of the adjacent property. In cooler months, roast marshmallows over an outdoor fire pit or strike up a fire and settle in by the hearth of one of the home’s two indoor working fireplaces.
The 2,176 square foot, sun-drenched, yellow stucco home offers three comfortable and inviting bedrooms: a master with a queen bed, a guest room with a queen bed, and a second guest room with two twin beds. (There is also a walk-in closet that can be transformed into a makeshift fourth bedroom as needed.)
There are two and a half bathrooms; two working fireplaces; spacious kitchen, dining and living rooms; and a cozy den. Random plank hardwood floors dating back to the early-mid 20th century, antique furnishings, and a second staircase built as part of two separate two-story, rear wing extensions lend extra character to the home.
The towns of Middleburg, Upperville, The Plains, and Marshall, which offer a variety of farm-to-table restaurants, high end shops, local butchers, the National Sporting Library & Museum, and a world-class spa facility, all are within and a 15-20 minute drive. Dozens of other area attractions, including Sky Meadows State Park and Shenandoah State Park, are a 20-30 minute driving distance away.
For lovers of the outdoors, the area offers spectacular vistas of rolling farmland and vineyards from meandering country roads—perfect for biking or afternoon drives. Nature enthusiasts can spot one of dozens of bird types, as well as deer, rabbit, fox and other animals; hike some of the region’s best trails in Shenandoah; or enjoy the ever-changing symphony of wild flowers that spring up alongside the road in the spring and summer.
History buffs will enjoy learning about the historic district of Rectortown, in which the house sits. The Manassas Gap Railroad stop that John Rector, after whom Rectortown was named, was influential in creating still carries cargo trains by less than a quarter of a mile down the road. (The train sounds its horn when passing; most guests tell us they quickly find it fades into the background.) The old Rectortown railroad storehouse, visible from the stone bridge giving access to the property, is one of the many Civil War historic landmarks in the area.
The house has blazing fast broadband Internet hook-up (new as of August 2020), and HD flat screen with Netflix and Prime streaming services. The cozy den and living rooms, both with working fireplaces, and are great places to read. If you finish the book you bring along, take a stroll to the Rectortown Post Office where you'll find a Little Free Library with books for trading/borrowing.
The house can sleep a maximum of six guests in bedrooms. Pets are not allowed without advance permission. Please note the house requires use of stairs and may not be suitable for those with limited mobility.
Area activities include:
- Pev's Paintball (walk-on reservations on Saturdays & Sundays)
