estled in the hills just outside of Lincoln
Village, Springdale is situated on 5.9
stunning park-like acres. The estate has
an intriguing past that will surely beguile
any American history aficionado. Famed educator,
author, and historian Samuel M. Janney originally
constructed the property to serve as an all-girls
boarding school. Janney was known as an avid
abolitionist, and thus Springdale is believed to have
served as a stopping point on the Underground
Railroad leading up to the Civil War. Springdale has
even hosted Lyndon B. Johnson and Sam Rayburn
poker games in the Parlor. In more recent times, the
property has been operated as a quaint bed and
breakfast as well as an area reception facility.
This Hunt Country federal style manor home is
generously appointed with eight bedrooms, seven
bathrooms, and eight functioning fireplaces. An
idyllic family escape or an entertainer’s delight,
the main house features a commercial grade
kitchen and a perfectly situated sun room offering
views of the streams, bridges and gardens that
complete the enchanting estate. The architecture
oozes quintessential 19th-century quality and
craftsmanship while the grounds rouse an
undeniable sense of grandeur.
Springdale’s rustic beauty and unparalleled tranquility
make it one of the most desirable properties on
the market today in Loudon County. Fortunately
enough, this piece of old-world elegance comes
with modern convenience as the home is located
just an hour West of Washington D.C. and a 40
minute drive from Dulles International Airport.
