Nestled just outside Charlottesville, Shack Mountain is a historic masterpiece designed by Fiske Kimball, founder of the University of Virginia School of Architecture. Built in 1935–36, the home is a tribute to Thomas Jefferson’s architectural style, inspired by Jefferson’s design for Farmington. The property, named for the Shackelford family who settled it in the 18th century, is a stunning example of Colonial Revival architecture. Kimball, an esteemed architectural historian, envisioned Shack Mountain as a retirement home, selecting a site with sweeping views of the surrounding hills. The home’s design features classic elements, including a Tuscan portico, triple-hung windows, and Chinese Chippendale balustrades. The interior is equally remarkable, with a circular vestibule and elegant parlor inspired by Jefferson’s Pavilion IX at UVA. Shack Mountain is not only a private retreat but also a National Historic Landmark, recognized for its architectural significance and connection to Kimball. This rare property offers a blend of historical charm and modern luxury, providing a unique opportunity to own a piece of Virginia’s architectural history.
