About this property

Hometract Cottage, Historic Property, UVA/Charlottesville/Ivy

  • Hometract Cottage is a historic one bedroom home (NRHP, circa 1800) centrally located 15 minutes or less from downtown Charlottesville, UVA, Crozet, Monticello, wineries and more. The cottage features king size bed, ensuite bath, fully stocked kitchen, living/workspace with comfortable sleeper sofa, mature landscaping for privacy, and covered front porch. Hometract is a quiet 3-acre property with terraced garden views. Visit our chicken coop, relax in the hammock, or walk to the garden shop or Duner's restaurant.

    Hometract is located in historic Ivy, a rural area characterized by mature forests and rolling hills. We have the privacy of a rural area with few neighbors but also easy access to I-64 & Rt. 250 putting Crozet, Ivy, Charlottesville, Monticello, Keswick, and more all within easy reach. We are walkable to the Ivy Corner Garden and Gift Shop, local favorite Duner's Restaurant, and the Wine & Country gift shop. Boars Head Resort is only 5 minutes down the road with its golf course, restaurants, spa, and music and events. The Foxfield Races are only 10 minutes away.

    Road cyclists can enjoy the popular Dick Woods Taylor Gap route passing right past Hometract's entrance.

    Enjoy the best spirits that Charlottesville has to offer with Ragged Branch Distillery a few minutes away, and Potters Craft Cider, Starr Brewery, and more than a dozen wineries all within 15 minutes.

A wonderfully charming cottage with all the comforts of home. On a National historical site registry property, the nostalgic centuries old wood fragrance, combined with modern amenities, and an extremely comfortable king bed. The perfectly romantic hideaway to celebrate our anniversary. Not quite as secluded as we expected, but certainly private enough and very respectful owners that live in the main house.

The place was straight out of a Hallmark Movie- Beautifully decorated, clean and enjoyable. The weather was beautiful, we were able to leave the screen door open, sit on the front porch, walk to the creek, and walk to the chicken coup. The Chicken Coup and the chickens are a wonderful addition to an already cool place. We loved to hear and watch the trains coming by the house. Juli was the best hostess. She was the best. She helped to answer our questions about the area. She also made time for my kids to meet and give the chickens special treats. She was so patient and kind with my kids . We didn't want to leave and already want to come back!

An Absolute Idyll

This is an overall lovely, serene, comfortable and yet practical. The cottage is very well-appointed and well-equipped. It was exactly the respite I needed.Juli, the host, was out of town, yet still communicated with me about my potential needs. I couldn't have asked for a better place or a better host.All that in a place that's only about a ten-minute drive west of town. i cannot recommend Home Tract highly enough.

Parents' weekend visit

This was the perfect place to stay for parents' weekend. It was a short drive to UVA campus. The beautiful living room and cozy kitchen enabled us to relax and visit in a comfortable environment. We loved the quiet, country setting and particularly enjoyed the view of the Milky Way at night and visiting with the hens during the day.
