Bon Aire is a remarkable c.1812 Federal residence on 43 acres set high above the southern Nelson County countryside, where architecture, history, and landscape meet with uncommon grace. The James River once lay in clear view below the house; today mature trees conceal it, though morning mist still traces its course through the landscape. Built by Dr. George Cabell, Jr., Bon Aire commands sweeping panoramic views from its private, elevated setting. Its three-part Palladian form, Flemish-bond brickwork, pedimented center block, and flanking wings place it firmly within Virginia’s classical tradition. Inside, arched openings, molded keystones, fluted pilasters, original woodwork, late-Federal mantels, and a remarkable barrel-vaulted passage reveal the craftsmanship and proportion of the house. National Register-listed, Bon Aire brings together architecture, privacy, land, and history in an unforgettable setting with the quiet beauty to stir the imagination of writers and artists. Thoughtfully restored while retaining its historic character, the property also includes a private guest apartment and renovated 1,985-square-foot cottage. Detailed brochure and video are available in the Media link.
