Description
A Virginia landmark. An established hospitality property. A remarkable opportunity for its next chapter. Hillcrest Mansion Inn commands the hilltop at the end of McCormick Boulevard, overlooking the historic railroad town of Clifton Forge and the surrounding Alleghany Mountains. Built in 1911 for prominent businessman A.O. Surber, this grand brick Neo-Classical Revival estate is a contributing property within the Clifton Forge Residential Historic District, listed on both the Virginia Landmarks Register and National Register of Historic Places.Currently operated as an award-winning bed-and-breakfast, Hillcrest offers a rare combination of architectural significance, established hospitality use and extraordinary flexibility. The property has been thoughtfully restored and improved while retaining the craftsmanship that gives the mansion its identity: original oak floors, substantial crown moldings and millwork, grand stairway and balustrades, original doors, period hardware and radiator covers, built-ins, wainscoting, fireplaces, crystal chandeliers and distinctive historic wallcoverings.The gracious main level was made for gathering. A dramatic central hall connects the formal dining room, parlor, music room and expansive living spaces, while the large eat-in kitchen and service areas support both private living and hospitality operations. Details discovered and preserved throughout the home tell its story, including the original servant-call annunciator, architectural arches and other features rarely encountered intact today.Guest accommodations combine historic character with modern comfort. Eight guest rooms are complemented by private baths ranging from beautifully preserved historic bathrooms-with original subway tile, pedestal sinks and soaking tubs-to renovated spa-style baths and walk-in showers. The upper attic level provides additional finished space and includes the eighth guest accommodation. The owner's current bedroom offers the potential for a ninth guest room should a future owner or innkeeper elect to reside in the separate carriage-house apartment. On the main level, an additional half bath formerly accommodated a tub, presenting the opportunity to restore it to a full bath.Outside, Hillcrest becomes a destination unto itself. The broad wraparound porch captures sweeping mountain, town, sunrise and sunset views. Mature landscaping, century-old boxwoods, formal gardens, brick walks, a koi pond and in-ground swimming pool create an exceptional setting for lodging, retreats, celebrations and events. A detached three-car garage is topped by a separate carriage-house apartment, ideal for an innkeeper/manager residence, private guest quarters or other approved use. Additional buildable parcels are included.Hillcrest has welcomed guests from across the country and around the world and has earned recognition for hospitality, romance, preservation and beautification. Its location places guests near Douthat State Park, the George Washington & Jefferson National Forests, The Homestead, Greenbrier-area destinations and the recreational and cultural attractions of Virginia's Alleghany Highlands.Continue Hillcrest's legacy as a boutique inn, explore its potential as an event or retreat venue, or envision another use permitted under Clifton Forge's R-1 zoning, including applicable conditional uses. It could also return to its origins as an extraordinary private estate. This is more than the sale of a historic mansion-it is an opportunity to become the steward of one of Clifton Forge's most recognizable properties while investing in what comes next. Extensive furnishings, contents and equipment may be available to support a seamless transition of the existing hospitality operation. Ample on-site parking and flexible gathering spaces further expand the property's potential.Embrace its Past. Invest in its Future.
