Blue Ridge Farm is a historic home and farm located near Upperville, Fauquier County, Virginia.

Overview

The property includes a two-story, rubble stone Federal era farmhouse known as Fountain Hill House (c. 1791) and its associated outbuildings and two contributing sites; a one-story Colonial Revival-style stone house known as Blue Ridge Farmhouse (1935) and its associated outbuildings, and formal landscape features around it; two tenant houses (Crawford House and Byington House, c. 1903); and several buildings associated with the farm's horse breeding industry, including three large broodmare stables (c. 1903); two stallion stables (stud barns, c. 1913); training stables, and an implement shed.

The Blue Ridge Farmhouse was designed in 1933-1934 by Washington, D.C. architect Waddy B. Wood. Californian Henry T. Oxnard (1860-1922) built a horse breeding operation at Blue Ridge Farm in 1903.

Purchased by Rear Admiral Cary Travers Grayson in 1928, members of the Grayson family still own the property.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[2]
