Rose Hill Farm sits gracefully atop a knoll in Jefferson County, West Virginia, where sweeping pastures, native gardens, and restored outbuildings reflect centuries of thoughtful stewardship. Originally part of a Lord Fairfax land grant, the property today includes an historic dairy barn, cultivated kitchen gardens, and a beautifully restored hay barn now used for events.
At its heart is the Rose Hill farmhouse, a two-story brick home built circa 1835 beside an earlier log dependency from around 1795. Together, they reflect a classic frontier progression—from a modest log dwelling to a more refined brick residence in the Greek Revival style, marked by symmetrical façades, fine brickwork, and deep-set windows.
In 2015, a sensitive restoration enhanced the farmhouse’s livability while honoring its history. Original features such as marbleized stair risers, acorn newels, paneled doors, and mantels were preserved, allowing the home’s craftsmanship to shine. The result is an interior that feels both timeless and alive—where early American artistry meets modern comfort.
Rose Hill Farm was listed on the National Register of Historical Places on May 18, 1990. It remains a place for gathering, reflection and celebration.
