Every Property Has a Story.

We Know How to Tell It.

We’ve successfully listed and sold many working farms, country estates, equestrian properties, historic homes, and truly unique residences throughout Charlottesville and Central Virginia. On occasion, after seeing their property presented through one of our brochures, sellers rediscover what made them fall in love with it in the first place—and choose not to sell at all. We consider that a success, too.

If you are thinking about selling, we would welcome the opportunity to meet with you. Tell us about your property—whether it’s a charming country home, a sprawling estate, or a one-of-a-kind offering. We take the time to listen, understand what makes your property special, and thoughtfully showcase its finest qualities to the right audience.

Selling Farms, Estates & Country Homes

Owning a country property, historic home, or farm represents far more than a financial transaction—it reflects a lifestyle, a legacy, and years of thoughtful stewardship. When it’s time to sell, results are driven not by mass exposure, but by strategy: identifying the right buyer and placing your property in front of an audience that understands land, architecture, and long-term value.

At McLean Faulconer, Inc., Bridget Archer and Pam Dent lead with precision. Their approach is rooted in decades of experience and a deeply cultivated network of qualified buyers—built through long-standing relationships, specialized marketing platforms, and national reach. Working collaboratively within McLean Faulconer and alongside respected brokerages, they ensure each property is positioned with intent and introduced to buyers who are ready, informed, and aligned with the character of the offering. The result is a sale defined by intention, alignment, and outcome.
