Tucked quietly away at the end of Green Farm Lane sits what many who visit commonly refer to as
“the best kept secret in Centreville”. Established in 2014, The Cottage is shielded from view by woods
and surrounded by nature. Green Farm is home to owls, eagles, bluebirds, peacocks, wild turkey, fox,
geese, duck, heron, and deer among other wildlife. 
The 6500+ Square feet layout is simple and straightforward. This home can live as large or as cozy as
desired. Extensive molding and trims which grace the rooms set the house apart. Hardwood floors
with carpet in four rooms make the home user and pet friendly. No space has been wasted and
current owners have utilized every square inch. 
The main level: Center Foyer with grand entrance stair, Living, Dining, Great Room (fireplace,
coffered ceilings), Office, Conservatory(vaulted), Kitchen, Sunroom (wood stove, vaulted ceiling),
Granny Room, Bath, Laundry room, full pantry, powder room. The first floor is a creative flexible
space. It has hosted high tea for 40 and adjusts easily to hosted gatherings of 70 or more with a DJ
and entertainment. 
The kitchen is perfection when more than one cook is in the kitchen! Spacious and open with a
generous center island, the kitchen is just the spot for all to gather. Stainless Kitchen equipment: two
ovens, Microwave oven, gas six burner stove, refrigerator, additional refrigerator in pantry,
dishwasher, cabinetry with plate racks, glass fronts and granite countertops.
Each bedroom has its own bath. Four on the upper level and one on the main level. The Primary
bedroom renovation was completed in 2022. The Bath has heated floors, claw foot tub, separate
shower, and true “dressing room”. The Primary bedroom has a gas fireplace and a conversation area.
The sliding door is awaiting the next owner to decide what is next- a reading nook, a Juliette balcony,
deck...? The options are endless.
A generous back stair connects the second-floor bedrooms to the kitchen/side entrance area and
large three car garage. Another stair leads to the finished room above the garage which is heated and
cooled by a separate unit. This room is currently used as a craft/playroom. A fourth stairway to the
third floor leads to a secret “speakeasy” media room.
The home is heated and cooled by a 4-zone system. A geothermal system was started by the homes
original builder/owner and awaits completion. Technology has changed in recent years and the
present owners have made choices accordingly. The previous owner had the home wired for cable,
stereo, projector in media area, game cameras, security system, etc. This wiring has been left
untouched so that those choices still exist. The home is connected to the property by wide porches
across the front. Three decks at the rear and a patio leading to the saltwater pool (2016). A Native
Garden surrounding the pool was designed and installed by FA Hobson (2017).
The kitchen garden is enclosed for protection. At the front NE corner of the property a heart shaped
evergreen mound has been planted to serve as a buffer. As it fills in over the next few years, it will
become an evergreen knot of differing textures. After calling The Cottage home for almost a decade,
the current owners are humbled to pass this incredible Eastern Shore dream to the next capable stewards.
