About 889 Old Garth Rd
LOCATION and privacy are just a few of the highlights in this custom-built (Abrahamse & Company Builders, 2006) residence located just minutes from historic Farmington Country Club. The property is adjacent to a 224-acre tract of land owned by the University of Virginia Foundation. The floor plan was carefully designed (Bushman Dreyfus Architects) with both elegance and comfortability in mind. Ten-foot ceilings, large formal dining room, glazed radiant concrete floors throughout entire 1st floor, 2 separate vanities/private water closets in primary bath with shared walk-in shower, charming screen porch private to primary suite, abundance of built-ins, storage and so much more. Mature landscaping surrounds the property with stone walking paths and towering hardwoods create an outdoor feast for the eyes.
