Tucked along the banks of Sycolin Creek in western Loudoun County is this one-of-a-kind hidden gem called Nixonâs Mill. Anchoring this property is a beautifully restored grist mill along with a charming stone Millerâs Cottage. One of only three remaining intact water driven mills in Loudoun County, ...Nixonâs Mill was originally built by George Nixon back in 1777. This 5+ acre parcel was once a part of the larger farm called Woodburn, previously owned by international ballet dancer Rudolph Nureyev until 1996. Wonderful views of both Woodburnâs elaborate brick barn and the original patent house can be seen across the creek. The stone Millerâs cottage was built 10 years after the mill in 1787 to house the mill operator and sadly was uninhabitable when the owner bought the property. It has been lovingly restored blending upscale modern conveniences while respecting the historical integrity of the home. This one bedroom, two-bathroom cottage has been preserved and yet revitalized with a new metal roof, rebuilt front porch, new kitchen with custom oak cabinetry created by a local artisan and high-end appliances to include Bosch, Sub-Zero, gas Heartland cooking stove, Herbeau faucet and handmade copper sink. The primary bath was fully updated and all new systems were installed to include a ductless mini-split for AC, new furnace and whole house water filtration system. The over 4,600 square foot mill - on three levels - was also in serious disrepair and the owner added electricity, a new metal roof, restored damaged roof beams, the frame siding, windows, new doors, paint and added concrete flooring to the main level. The first floor still has the original stalls for livestock, a preserved millstone and space in the aisle to park a car or 2 and serve as a garage of sorts. This old mill has so many possibilities for a new owner - to be used as a guest dwelling or make it the primary residence. The owner did the hard work of finding an additional 3-bedroom septic site on the property. (See permit in Documents section). Zoned AR1 and with no historic restrictions, the property can function as a bed & breakfast, antique or craft shop, art studio or gallery and so much more. Other improvements to the property include a new circular driveway with fresh gravel, a cleared path to the back end of the property and meticulous care has been taken of the mature trees - to include one iconic 100+ year old Magnolia that shelters the cottage. If you are searching for a weekend place or just looking to downsize â come see Nixonâs Mill which offers a private setting in the country - yet is only minutes to several local wineries like Stone Tower and Zephaniah, historic Oatlands, downtown Leesburg and 20 minutes to Dulles International Airport.
