Boyd Tavern House | Private Retreat on 10 Acres Minutes from Monticello, Wineries & Charlottesville!

3 Bedroom House in Boyd Tavern, Charlottesville

Nestled down a half mile gravel road you will find a peaceful serene home surrounded by the great outdoors without another house in sight. Conveniently located only 6.8 miles from downtown Charlottesville this charming 3 BR / 3.5 Bath country retreat comes with all the amenities of modern life. There are four wineries within 6.5 miles of the house as well as historic sites such as Monticello & Ash Lawn which are each about 5 minutes away. The house is bright and airy, features all hardwood flooring throughout, a large kitchen, screened in porch and separate outdoor seating area by a babbling fish/frog pond. Below the house is a fire pit surrounded by 8 Adirondack chairs as well as directly accessible walking and horse trails through bordering land which is under conservation easement.
Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The master is very spacious and bright with a king bed, large, padded headboard and its own full bathroom and tub. The second bedroom features a queen bed and is very bright and airy surrounded by windows . The third bedroom features two twins and both of these bedrooms share a full bath which features fully tiled and glass enclosed shower. Finally, in the walk out basement there full size pull out sofa bed, gaming/poker table, TV, dart board and complete with its own full bathroom with glass enclosed tiled shower. All bathrooms are supplied with salon grade shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, towels and washcloths.
On the main floor there is a TV/sitting room with a large bay window looking over the yard to the woods. Also in the room is a piano and wood burning fireplace with two cozy wingback chairs.
The kitchen is bright and large and well equipped with a large sink, dishwasher, disposal, gas range and an assortment of high quality cookware/knives. For coffee lovers there is Keurig Machine (bring your own k-cups) or a 12 cup Cuisinart percolator. Also provided are a large variety of spices and basic cooking necessities such as sugar, flour, salt, pepper, cooking oils, vinegars, etc. The kitchen has its own breakfast seating area or you can wander out the back door and relax in the screened in porch. The dining room, visible from the kitchen, comfortably seats six, although you could squeeze eight.
Much of the nearby land behind the house is all under conservation easement and you may enjoy taking one of the many walking/horse trails which are quite extensive. There is a full vegetable garden and small orchard on property which I maintain. You can relax in the outdoor seating area by the fish pond to the sounds of babbling water in the background or lounge in comfortable Adirondack chairs under the tall surrounding oak trees while enjoying the fire pit. This is truly a ‘get away’ retreat and you will leave feeling relaxed and recharged!

Summary: Our son’s wedding was held at James Monroe Highland. The location, peacefulness, and comfort of this home was a welcome retreat and very convenient place to relax and chill out from the wedding planning and preparation activities. It is beautiful here and we had a fantastic stay! Thanks!

Summary: We stayed in this lovely retreat while in Charlottesville for UVA's graduation. The house truly feels like home. Clean, cozy, private, well-equipped. We relaxed on the screened porch while visiting with family and listening to the frogs in the pond below. The property is beautiful and secluded, but convenient to everything. The owner was communicative and easy to work with. We highly recommend this home and would happily rent again!

Summary: This beautiful home in the woods, just a short drive from the center of Charlottesville, provides the perfect base to enjoy the local area. Restaurants, historical attractions and wineries. The beds are comfy, the kitchen well-equipped, the porch heavenly, and the amenities up-to-date. Four mature women could not find a single thing to gripe about during their four-night stay in April.

Summary: This was a perfect house for our group (Mom, sister, niece, and me). We were celebrating Mom's birthday and wanted a great house to spend time together with fun activities nearby. Charlottesville area was perfect. We enjoyed cooking, playing games at the dining room table, and wine on the screened in porch (beautiful woods/grounds to enjoy - very quiet and peaceful). Beds were comfy and shower was great (shared bath only one I used). Monticello and Michie Tavern (go!) were right down the street and downtown Charlottesville just 20 minutes away. James was quick to respond with any questions we had. We would come back to this house in a heartbeat.

Summary: Great location very convenient to the President’s homes (we visited all three). Shopping and restaurants are 15 minutes. The grounds of the house are wonderful - lots of birds for naturalists. Well-stocked kitchen for those who like to cook. Highly recommended. James was very responsive to any questions

Summary: The property is beautiful and well-kept, inside and out. There is a warm feel to the home, with family photos and wonderful decor. The outdoor bonfire area and outdoor lighting, along with view of the secluded woods was also amazing. The host communicates well and is very hospitable. We recommend this place 100%! It was like home away from home! Thank you.

Summary: This house was just right for getting together with friends (six of us in all). We'd graduated from UVA about 50 years ago, so we enjoyed revisiting Charlottesville and the grounds of the university. It was good to have 3 bathrooms. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was perfect for a few cooks at a time. The grounds were also beautiful--nothing like the Charlottesville area in April!
