Sotherly Manor is a beautiful 1870 house located in the historic town of Gordonsville, VA est. c1813. If you love American history, antiques, and art in a historic setting, this will be a memorable place to stay and enjoy a unique experience. From its high ceilings and hardwood floors, to its original architectural details, grand entrance hall, and pub room, you will have lots of spaces to enjoy and explore.
4 spacious guest bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation and are all located on the second floor. Rooms include a master king bedroom that has a en-suite bathroom and a canopy king bedroom, a queen bedroom, and a twin bedroom that share the main upstairs full bathroom.
There are two main reception rooms (living room and drawing room) for your comfort and leisure along with a formal, well appointed dinning room. The kitchen is well supplied with most modern kitchen needs, with a breakfast room next door that has a nice view of the gardens.
The private library is the perfect room to enjoy a good book in a comfortable wing back chair.
The tv room has a large, widescreen tv for entertainment and located across the hall is the study / Captain's room with a desk for remote work.
A favorite room of ours is the pub room, which is a surprise to everyone and many peoples' favorite gathering spot.
The front columned porch is an enjoyable place for a morning coffee or watch the sun rise on the back brick terrace.
Seasonally you can enjoy the private swimming pool open from mid-May to the end of September, walk around the lovely back garden, or relax on the brick patio.
Private parking is provided on site. From the front door, you can walk out of the front gates and enjoy a 3 minute stroll to Downtown Gordonsville. This small town offers a variety of boutique shops, bakeries, restaurants, a museum, coffee shops, and a visitor center without the need to drive anywhere.
This house is ideally located near many wineries, such as Keswick Winery and Barboursville Vineyards; Castle Hill Cider and Patch Brewing Co.; historic Presidents' homes, such as Jefferson's Monticello, Madison's Montpelier, and Monroe's Highland (all open to the public for tours). The University of Virginia in the town of Charlottesville is 30 minutes away on route 231, which is a designated scenic byway through the famous Keswick Hunt country. The Shenandoah National Park and the Blue Ridge Parkway along the beautiful blue ridge mountains are also a short drive away with incredible panoramic views.

A Special Place

This property was awesome! I’m from Virginia and a graduate of UVA! We booked this location after looking at many places. We were there for a long Fall weekend full of vineyard tours, football, beautiful landscape and much more. This location was perfect! We loved the beauty of the antiques in the home! It was so welcoming. Our host, John was awesome! We will book again!

Beautiful historic house

We thoroughly enjoyed the house, decorations, and location. Thr hosts had thoughtfully provided tons of snacks and fresh flowers upon our arrival. The kitchen was well stocked for the meal we prepared one evening. The beds were comfortable and the sheets were amazing. Plenty of fresh new towels and every space had anything you could think to need including tolietries. We will definitely come back!

Great House for Family Celebration

Sotherly Manor in Gordonsville was the perfect place for us to celebrate our family reunion. Everything exceeded our expectations!! The historic house was spotlessly clean and is even larger than it appears in the photographs. It gave us all the present day comforts with a taste of the past all wrapped up in one from the antiques, beautiful artworks, oriental rugs, and chandeliers. Even though we had some very frosty mornings this February, the house was lovely and warm and plenty of hot water in the showers. The basement was a hit for hanging out in the pub room, which felt like being in a colonial tavern from way back when! The bedrooms were extremely comfortable and spacious with fantastic beds and everyone slept so well! The kitchen had everything - every pot and pan and serving dish you could think of. The large formal dining room sat 10 of us comfortably around the huge dining room table - perfect for our great family gathering. Location was perfect for adventures to historic Monticello and Montpelier and we visited Keswick and Barboursville vineyards for wine tastings. Breakfast at Jackson’s & Co became our morning ritual walk for coffee and fresh pastries. In all this place was a great find and we can’t wait to come back. We would highly recommend booking this beautiful home!!
