Inside The Living Room
Stepping into the main living room, clean white walls and large black-framed windows make the space feel open and modern, while the reclaimed wood beams overhead, sourced from a historic Virginia barn, bring in warmth and a sense of history.
The room is arranged around a carved fireplace with a herringbone firebox, framed by built-in shelving that keeps the wall balanced without adding visual clutter.
A pair of long sofas face one another across a glass coffee table, with leather chairs at the front of the seating group, creating a layout that feels made for conversation and everyday lounging.
Wide openings trimmed in the same weathered wood connect it to the other spaces, while the expansive windows on the far side pull in natural light and frame views of the grounds.
Dining Room
Through the wood-framed opening, the dining area features a long wood table with matching bench seating and woven host chairs that add texture and soften the room’s crisp lines.
The black-framed wall of glass pulls the landscape directly into the room, giving the dining space a bright, open backdrop and a clear connection to the outdoor entertaining areas.
Kitchen
Across from the dining area, the kitchen opens around a large waterfall-edge island lined with bar seating beneath two pendant lights, and detailed ceiling trim that helps define the space without closing it off from the dining area.
Quartzite surfaces run across the island and countertops, while light wood cabinetry keeps the palette soft around the farmhouse sink and open shelving.
Fireside Den
Just a few steps from the kitchen and dining area, this den works as a quieter lounge connected to the main flow of the house.
A full stone fireplace wall grounds the space across from floor-to-ceiling black-trimmed windows, adding texture against the leather club chairs gathered around a wood table.
Home Office
Off the main living spaces, the home office is set up as a compact workspace with an antique wood desk paired with a leather chair, a patterned side chair, and a cowhide rug.
Primary Suite
Also on the main floor, the primary suite continues the home’s balance of clean architecture and layered materials, bringing in darker tones, framed views, and a more private layout.
Bedroom with Garden Views
The bedroom is set beneath a vaulted ceiling with exposed wood beams and a modern ceiling fan, shifting the tone slightly darker with charcoal walls.
A full wall of black-framed glass looks directly into a garden courtyard, while the layout centers around a simple upholstered bed, framed by wood nightstands and tall mirrors.
En-Suite Bathroom
The en-suite bathroom opens up into a bright, symmetrical layout defined by marble surfaces and clean lines.
Two wide vanities sit on either side of a large walk-in shower, which stretches the width of the room with multiple fixtures and built-in niches.
Brass hardware and a geometric chandelier add contrast, while small windows within the shower wall bring in natural light without compromising privacy.
Walk-In Closet
The closet is designed as a full dressing room, lined with open shelving, hanging space, and dedicated sections for shoes and accessories.
A central island with drawers provides additional storage and a surface for folding, while overhead lighting keeps the space evenly lit.
Amenities Structure
Set apart from the main residence, a 3,000-square-foot conditioned structure expands the property with a fully built-out space housing a range of amenities for training, recreation, and hosting.
Gym and Lounge
The structure opens into a wide, beam-lined interior that combines a sitting area, dining table, and full gym within one continuous space.
On one side, rubber flooring defines the workout zone, equipped with weight machines, free weights, and cardio equipment, all positioned in front of a mirrored wall.
Indoor Batting Cage
Running along the back of the structure, a fully enclosed batting cage stretches the length of the space, fitted with turf flooring and overhead netting.
Golf Simulator and Bar
At the far end, the layout features a full golf simulator with a projection screen and hitting platform. Behind it, a built-in bar anchors the space with cabinetry, open shelving, and under-counter refrigeration, positioned for easy access during use.
Outdoor Amenities
The outdoor amenities extend the home’s layout into the landscape, combining structured garden areas, a fully finished pool patio, and open acreage designed for equestrian use.
Garden Courtyard
Positioned between two wings of the home, the garden courtyard acts as a central outdoor passage, lined with stone walls, black-framed windows, and a gravel walkway.
Raised plant beds and potted arrangements frame the path, creating a layered transition between interior rooms.
Saltwater Pool and Spa
At the back of the main house, the backyard opens to a rectangular saltwater pool set within a wide stone terrace.
A built-in spa sits at the far end, slightly elevated and finished in matching stone, while the surrounding hardscape leaves room for seating and movement along the perimeter.
Equestrian Grounds
Across the broader acreage, the property shifts into open, functional land with fenced pastures and a dedicated barn structure.
The barn mirrors the home’s dark exterior and metal roofing, tying it architecturally to the main residence while serving as a separate working space.
Why is Hayes Selling?
After completing the estate in 2021, Adam Hayes and his wife, Brandy, are now preparing for a move driven by a shift in priorities, choosing to relocate closer to their two sons’ new school.
This decision isn’t about the property itself but more about simplifying daily life, even after the time and intention that went into building the home.
For its next owner, the estate offers a combination of acreage, luxury, plenty of amenities, and a thoughtful layout built to support a family.
