Historic Farmhouse in the Dillwyn countryside. Not far from Farmville.
Built in 1797, the Eppes House holds a special place in history—with connections to Thomas Jefferson—and offers the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comfort.
Nestled in the peaceful countryside of Dillwyn, VA, you're just 12 minutes from Farmville, where you can explore local dining, charming shops, and the seasonal farmers market. Whether you're here to unwind in nature, sip local wine, or dive into Virginia’s rich history, this home is the perfect base.
The original center of the house dates back to 1796, with two modern wings added in the last 15 years—giving you a cozy mix of charm and space.
Sleeping Arrangements:
2 upstairs bedrooms in the historic section (please note: no bathroom on this level). One has two twins and the other has a queen bed.
1 full bathroom and 1 half bath on the main floor
Master suite in the left wing (upstairs) with full bath, including a shower and jacuzzi tub.
Living room has a queen pull out sofa bed.
All beds except for the sofa bed have newer hybrid mattresses.
Living Spaces:
Spacious living room in the left wing
Cozy bar/lounge downstairs.
Dining room with large farmhouse table.

Studio Apartment also available for rent: Located above the attached garage in the right wing, there’s a separate studio apartment that may be rented during your stay. It’s well-separated from the main home, and it’s unlikely you’ll hear other guests.

Host was very friendly and helpful. More space than I imagined. Adorable place. Very clean and comfortable. Beds were extra comfortable, luxury towels and plenty of extra blankets etc. the basement area is such a nice extra touch. It's obvious the owners have put a ton of thought and effort into this house.
