Earlier this week, DHR received a tour of the Dunnington Mansion in Farmville courtesy of The Dunnington Mansion Foundation. Known as Poplar Hill in its heyday, the mansion and surrounding grounds have an extensive history that dates to the 1700s. Once a magnificent Victorian manor, developers bought the house in 2000 with a goal to turn it into the centerpiece of a championship golf course.

ABANDONED 175 Year Old Mansion With 40 ROOMS & AMAZING Architecture! This is Dunnington Mansion! In the small town of Farmville Virginia lies this amazing abandoned mansion. It was built in 1850. In 1748 a man was granted 1152 acres here by King George II. It actually started as a small wooden house when it was granted so technically it's older than 1850. Way Older! In 1860 the property was sold and for the first time ever somebody outside of the family owned it. Then in 1897 a huge addition was

I first saw Dunnington Mansion eight years ago. Today was surreal to be back there and with Preservation Virginia trying to save it. I nominated the house to be on Virginia's Most Endangered Properties list. We did have permission to be inside the home.

For sale at 12.5 million. I’ll include the link at the bottom. Dunnington Mansion, FarmVille Va has the most beautiful solarium, and when I went, there was a sign out front that said the house was not open for tours, and that you should enter at your own risk. I actually think they do tours now, but I’ll be uploading a full video on this one soon. https://www.farmvilleherald.com/2023/04/how-much-for-history-dunnington-mansion-goes-up-for-sale/ | A lady called Johnna

The beautiful solarium at Dunnington Mansion Foundation I’m thinking about another trip here… I have some definite portrait ideas in mind I would like to do with one of my friends so I’m gonna try to put together another group. These are always the most fun, but I usually bite off more than I can chew. I’m wondering what kind of group I can put together this time… 😊 | A lady called Johnna
