Property Description
Discover the elegance and history of Hill Mansion, a stunning Victorian-era estate built in 1857-1858 and one of the finest homes in Culpeper. Nestled on 1.5 acres, this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath mansion offers 5,873 square feet of living space, complete with nine fireplaces and beautiful Italianate architecture. It’s a versatile property, ideal as a private residence, event venue, or charming bed-and-breakfast. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and part of the South East Street Historic District, Hill Mansion’s exterior showcases an arcaded veranda with Tuscan columns, bracketed cornices, and intricate cast-iron and wood porches. Inside, the grandeur continues with a sweeping curving staircase, marble mantels, and soaring floor-to-ceiling windows. Steeped in Civil War history, the mansion served as a Confederate hospital and hosted notable figures, including General Robert E. Lee and Lieutenant General A. P. Hill, the builder’s brother. The home’s storied past is filled with moments where generals gathered and wounded soldiers recuperated, adding to its aura of Southern heritage. Located at 501 South East Street, this stately mansion offers both historic charm and modern potential.
