Maiden Spring, Historic farm complex in Pounding Mill, Virginia
The Maiden Spring estate features a two-story central-passage house with detailed trim, five bays, and two-level porticos surrounded by eight additional structures.
Built in 1838 for Rees Tate Bowen, who served in the Virginia House of Delegates during the Civil War, the property became a Confederate troop camp in 1862.
The property includes a preserved schoolhouse, cemetery, slave quarters, and multiple agricultural buildings that represent rural Virginia life in the 1800s.
Located at the intersection of Virginia Route 609 and Route 91, the private residence spans 600 acres with various structures visible from public roads.
The natural spring on the property continues to flow as it did when the first structures were built, maintaining its original water source since 1772.
