Keswick residents find themselves in the serene countryside of Central Virginia that Thomas Jefferson described as "the Eden of the United States". Mr. Jefferson's influence and architectural achievements live on at his beloved home, Monticello, and his "academic village" at the University of Virginia, both minutes from the Estate.
American history buffs can also tour the homes of two other founding fathers, James Madison's, Montpelier and James Monroe's, Ash Lawn-Highland, located nearby.
Charlottesville is also a progressive, vibrant community offering visitors fine art museums, theater, symphony and operatic productions, numerous equestrian events, and the nationally recognized Virginia Film Festival. In addition, guests can enjoy touring the area's many award-winning vineyards and fine antique shops.
But perhaps the most noted characteristic of the area is its stunning natural beauty and magnificent surroundings.
Known for its magnificent horse farms Keswick is home to endless thoroughbred breeds that originated hundreds of years ago. Charlottesville's horse farms are splendid especially in Keswick.
Many of Keswick horse farms were designed and built by Thomas Jefferson. Meriwether Lewis and William Clark both owned horse farms in Charlottesville. Charlottesville's two foxhunts are the Farmington and Keswick Hunt founded in 1899.

Pricing >Selling For Top Dollar
When you get serious about selling your home, the chances of your selling it quickly for top dollar will improve considerably if you list it with a real estate sales professional. If you doubt this, consider the fact that eight out of ten homes sold today--more in some markets--are listed with a professional real estate agent.
Listing your home places it on the local Multiple Listing Service that is subscribed to by a majority of real estate sales professionals. Through the MLS listing, your home is assured of getting the widest possible exposure to the market place.
Some buyers shop the home market on their own, but most save time and money by using the services of a real estate sales professional. Ask yourself which homes the real estate agent is going to show the prospective buyers--homes listed on the MLS or those that are not?
If you still want to try to sell your own home, be aware that you will face stiff competition when it comes to attracting qualified buyers!
