The Estate Today

Restored. In active
daily use.

The Federal-style fieldstone manor, the bank barn, the stone smokehouse, and the springhouse date to the founding era — built by Quaker craftsmen in 1807. The 130-foot concrete silo came later, raised during the dairy years when Purcellville farms shipped product by rail to Washington D.C. Each structure marks a different chapter of the same working farm. All survive intact, faithfully restored and in active daily use.

The Glass Manor was added in 2024 at the base of the landmark silo. Vines first planted in 2007, with significant vineyard expansion underway since 2022, now yield two wine labels — Draksha and Otium — grown and poured on the same estate.

The Spaces

What's here —
and what it feels like.

The manor, the barn, the smokehouse, the springhouse, the silo — each structure has stood on this land for generations. The Glass Manor is the one addition, built in 2024. Below is a character overview of each space. Full venue details, capacities, packages, and inquiry are on the Weddings page.

01
The Historic Bank Barn
Reception venue · Up to 125 · Climate controlled

Wide plank wood floors, warm aged timber, and exceptional picture windows overlooking the vineyard. Climate-controlled in a genuinely historic uninsulated structure — uncommon and worth noting. The lower level holds four original church pews and historic stone walls, offering an intimate indoor ceremony option with a quiet chapel quality. Seats 125.

02
Glass Manor
at the Silo
Reception venue · Up to 300 · Built 2024

The estate's largest venue — built at the base of the 130-foot silo. Floor-to-ceiling views from every angle. The silo anchors the space while wraparound patios edged by fieldstone walls open the venue to the landscape — guests move freely between inside and out. The defining quality is the views. Seats 300.

03
The Manor House
Est. 1807 · Federal fieldstone · 5 bedrooms

The 1807 Federal-style fieldstone manor — plaster crown molding, heart pine floors, working fireplaces throughout. Five bedrooms, the Lovett Courtyard at the back, and a history that begins with David Lovett's Quaker farm. Available for intimate gatherings, bridal preparation, and overnight stays. The house the whole estate grew around.

04
Seven Ceremony
Settings
Hilltop · Wisteria Terrace · Willow Tree · Silo Lounge · Flagstone Courtyard · Stone Steps & Pine Terrace

Seven distinct outdoor ceremony settings across the estate grounds — each with its own character. The Hilltop with vineyard backdrop. The Wisteria Terrace at the back of the manor, stonewalls and ponds ahead. The Willow Tree framed by a large moon gate. Each setting has a weather contingency built in through the two main venues.

05
The Estate Winery
Tasting Room · Belvedere · Terrace · Loft · Wine Store

The estate winery sits within the grounds — four distinct spaces including the brick fireplace tasting room, the glass-enclosed Belvedere, the terrace with fire pits, and the Loft above the wine store with sweeping estate views. Draksha sparkling wines and Otium artisanal estate wines are poured here. Reservations through Tock.

06
Historic Outbuildings
Smokehouse · Springhouse · Silo Lounge · Outbuilding grounds

The stone smokehouse and springhouse date to the founding era — among the most photographed structures on the estate. The Spring House in particular, with its moss-covered stone walls, is easy to overlook and consistently a favorite. The Silo Lounge at the 130-foot silo accommodates over 300 — ideal for welcome events and farewell gatherings.

Full venue detail — capacities, furniture, getting ready spaces, packages, and the inquiry form — are all on the Weddings page. Tours are available by appointment.

Est. 1807

Over two centuries
of remarkable company.

Originally 600 acres. Built by Quaker hands. Worked by generations before it became what it is today.

1807The founding
David Lovett builds on Quaker land.

David Lovett, a prominent Quaker land developer, established the farm on 600 acres in 1807. The Federal-style fieldstone manor was built by skilled Quaker stone masons — the same tradition responsible for the most durable construction in the county. Heart pine floors, plaster crown molding, and working fireplaces survive intact. The Quakers denounced slavery, and Virginia's Quakers sympathised with the Union during the Civil War. A Quaker meeting house in the nearby village of Lincoln is still active today.

The manor's exterior carries a formation of white quartz stones that resembles an eye. Every summer solstice at precisely 7am, the rising sun illuminates the quartz formation while the shadow of the nearby smokehouse roof falls below it as a pyramid — an alignment that has repeated since the house was built, similar to the all-seeing eye of providence on the dollar bill. Whether deliberate or coincidental, no one now living knows.

1840s–
1980sHunt country
Horses, hounds, and one famous rider.

The Piedmont Fox Hounds — founded in 1840, the oldest organised fox hunt in the United States — covered territory that included these fields for over a century. The farm housed thoroughbred racehorses alongside dairy cattle through most of its working life. The landmark 130-foot silo was built during the dairy era, when Purcellville farms shipped product by rail from Purcellville to Washington D.C.

In the 1980s, Barbara Graham — a racehorse trainer who grew up at Tranquility Farm — hunted here with her friend Jackie Kennedy Onassis, who followed the Piedmont Fox Hounds during this period. "They hunted side by side in the mornings and then drove around the country lanes," wrote Vicky Moon in The Private Passion of Jackie Kennedy Onassis: Portrait of a Rider (2005). "We connected because she was so down to earth," said Graham.

TodayRestored
A new chapter, grounded in the old.

The historic structures — the manor, the barn, the smokehouse, the springhouse, the silo — have been preserved and restored as found. Two existing cottages were renovated as the Grüner Bungalow and the Vineyard Cottage. The Glass Manor was built beside the landmark silo in 2024. The Lovett Courtyard was named in honour of the farm's founding builder. An estate winery was established producing two wine labels — Draksha sparkling wines and Otium, the vintner's artisanal wine program. Vineyard expansion has been underway since 2022, building toward a dedicated sparkling vineyard completing in 2026.
