Keswick, Virginia real estate is some of the most beautiful in the Charlottesville area of Virginia. The town was established in 1849, when the Virginia Central Railroad built a depot where its tracks crossed the road from Charlottesville to Gordonsville. The name of the estate where this intersection occurred was Keswick, and this gave the town its name. That estate was named after a particularly beautiful and serene town in the Lake District of Cumbria, England.
