Hanover, Virginia – Commonwealth Commercial, a leading commercial real estate firm headquartered in Richmond, represented the Fearnow family in selling the last piece of their Hope Farm property in Hanover County. The 16+ acres will become a multi-family community by Eagle Construction called Brunswick at Hope Farms, a nod to the popular canned stew created by Hanover County entrepreneur and businesswoman Lillie Fearnow.
Ryan Fanelli and Sam Worley, both Senior Vice Presidents and Partners at Commonwealth Commercial, served as brokers for the transaction, which closed on August 24, 2021 for a sale price of $1.4 million.
Located on a large section of Shady Grove Road in Hanover County, Brunswick at Hope Farms will consist of 49 age-restricted townhomes in an L-shaped community with a pond in the middle.
“It was a privilege to collaborate with the Fearnow family on the remaining tract of their beloved Hope Farm,” said Ryan Fanelli. “The property’s name has achieved an iconic status and is still featured prominently on the bright yellow label of their ‘Delicious Brunswick Stew’. It’s nice to know that the new development’s name will carry on the legacy of Hope Farm.”
