South Keswick – A Fluvanna County Equestrian Community

November 9th, 2008

Are you looking for a new home for yourself and your horses?  One of the options for horse owners is to purchase a home in an equestrian community.  Often horse owners do not want to take on the upkeep of a large farm, but the trade off with keeping your horses on a smaller piece of land is that there is not anywhere to ride.  The solution may be to purchase a home in an equestrian community.

We have talked about Glenmore with its attached equestrian center.  The Glenmore model offers a stable adjoining the community where homeowners are able to board their horses close to their homes.  South Keswick presents a different sort of option.  In the South Keswick community most of the homesites are about 10 to 12 acres and offer the opportunity to have your horses living on your own property.  At the same time there are communal walking and riding trails which stretch throughout the community, so that there is plenty of room to ride.

South Keswick is conveniently located in Fluvanna County, 2 miles from I64 and 10 minutes to Charlottesville.

Below are pictures of some of the homes and the only remaining lot that are currently on the market in South Keswick.  The homes that are currently for sale range in price from $599,000-$865,000 and the 11.97 acre wooded lot is priced at $225,000.

Enjoy the Trails at Glenmore

August 19th, 2008

P1010049 (Small) The extensive system of walking and riding trails is a key feature that sets the Glenmore neighborhood appart.  Glenmore is a gated community located in the beautiful Keswick countryside just east of Charlottesville, Virginia.  The neighborhood has the usual amenities of country club, golf course, pool, tennis and fitness center.  However, it is the dedication to providing numerous opportunities to enjoy the countryside outside of the residential areas, but still inside the gates that sets this community appart.

Glenmore currently has 8.5 miles of trails, which is slated to grow to almost 13 miles by 2012.  These trails are enjoyed by walkers, joggers, photographers, birdwatchers and equestrians from the adjoining Glenmore Equestrian Center, managed by Shadowfax LLC.  Maintaining the trails has been a tru community effort with more that 50 volunteers participating in the upkeep of the existing trails and the opening of new areas.

It is very special to have so much access to nature, yet be a few minutes away from Charlottesville.  Please contact me if you would like a tour of Glenmore, to see how you could experience the Glenmore Lifestyle.
