Like much of the real estate in Virginia’s Hunt Country, Rappahannock County homes for sale can be found on expansive lots. Since the county as a whole has remained predominantly agricultural that doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Thus, Rappahannock County homes for sale often come in the form of spacious country estates, farms and horse farms.

Equestrian activities and traditions are an integral part of life in Rappahannock County – this is the Hunt Country, after all – and many of the folks here justly qualify as horse mad. Foxhunting is a prominent activity, as are polo matches, horse shows and steeplechase racing.

Even if you’re not that big a horse lover, however, you’ll still find much to enjoy about life in Rappahannock County. There’s the great outdoors, for one.
