?Little Monticello? as known to locals, Oak Forest was modeled after Thomas Jefferson?s octagonal country retreat, Poplar Forest. Designed by noted architect Stanhope Johnson, and complemented by landscape architect Charles Gillette?s magnificent gardens, Oak Forest is nestled on several lots overlooking Jefferson-designed Farmington?s famed portico. This exquisite property looks to the Blue Ridge Mountains, is bordered by the 11th Fairway, expansive yard, spring-fed pond, water wheel, and beautiful long, brick walls. Construction was held to the highest standards, consisting of Slate roof, Flemish Bond, exterior brick walls with a depth of over 2 feet. Interior trim details, floors, etc. all mirror those of Jefferson?s architecture. Simply elegant grounds and additional buildings.
