The current owners of the Hopewell Hall Mansion have painstakingly restored every detail of this magnificent property which was left in complete disarray.  The grand entry drive supports the estate like feel of the entire property, multi-tiered stone waterfront walls have been re-built, re-pointed and professionally landscaped.  A water level, gravel pathway around the entire peninsula is exquisite.  All updated heating, plumbing and electrical systems.  This parcel would lend itself well to an Inn, B & B or year round resort.  Wellesley Island is a joy in the wintertime, for cross-country skiing, and other outdoor activities.  Any zoning change would require approval from local planning board.

Acreage
 
Approximately 80 acres between Landon Rd and County Route 100 with excellent road frontage on each.  Potential for subdivision, equestrian development, commercial development (outdoor recreation / spa/ etc.)  Current zoning change would require site plan review and acceptance of business proposal by Town of Alexandria Planning board.  
The 80 Acres has a 50' Right of Way to Densmore Bay for river access, the 5 acre peninsula is also protected by a 50' border, insulating the peninsula from neighbors encroaching,
