Listing details
This is truly a step back in time opportunity. The Academy is an excellent example of a small central-passage-plan house of sophisticated Tidewater Federal-style architecture. It and its twin, Chicacoan Cottage, are in the Heathsville Historic District in Northumberland County. They were originally part of the 694-acre tract known as Springfield, owned by John Heath, a founder of Phi Beta Kappa at the College of William and Mary. The Academy is laid in Flemish-bond brick on its fa�ade and west elevation with the less prominent elevations laid in American bond. The fa�ade and north elevations feature a corbelled brick cornice. The one-and-one-half-story, gable-roofed building sits on an English basement. A smokehouse with similarly sophisticated brick construction has survived as part of The Academy complex. Well preserved and virtually identical to its origins this home is a rare chance. It is not an open concept HGTV home. This is an amazing chance to step into and own a time machine.
