Escape to Your Private Mountain Sanctuary! 10 Acres | Breathtaking Mountain Views | Minutes to Town. Perched perfectly on a knoll at over 3100’ above sea level you have a window through the 10 mostly wooded acres with a view. A huge view of the farm land… Read More below and Virginia mountains in the distance. This exceptional estate home offers the rare luxury of total seclusion without isolation. Located less than five miles from town, you’ll feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle and hear nothing but the wind in the trees, song birds, and soaring hawks. Designed to harmonize with nature, the home's exterior features premium, low-maintenance hardy siding and ceilings to avoid wood destroying insects, in a palette that blends into its cool, forested surroundings. Step inside to a light-filled, spacious great room, defined by soaring tall ceilings, a floor to ceiling rock fireplace with gas logs, hardwood flooring and a wall of windows so you never forget you are in the mountains. The heart of the home features an a granite bar surrounding the kitchen, custom cabinetry, and stainless appliances. The most important view, from the kitchen sink, is facing the fireplace ready for your big screen, watching the big game and being totally present with friends and family. With a slight glance to the right, toward the dining room, the wall of windows offers a calming, grounding view of nature. This kitchen offers plenty of granite work space so many hands can prepare meals and share in the joy of cooking. Four sets of French doors take you to the covered and open deck that runs the length of the home and wraps around the stone fireplace side expanding your living space to socialize or read in the cool mountain breezes. After a day of hiking or hunting through the woods, take a good long soak in the ensuite primary bath on the main floor. Designed as a lifetime home, the laundry, garage & powder room are all located on the main floor. The beautifully designed staircases lead you up where there are two spacious bedrooms, one with the best view in the house & a full bath. Down is a bright and spacious den with tall ceilings, gas logs, new practically indestructible flooring, another bedroom, another room used for sleeping and another full bath and utility room. Since there are views from even the lower level, the gathering can spread out onto the lower patio if you just can't get enough of the cool mountain breezes. For those who appreciate the wild, these 10 acres double as a private wildlife sanctuary. From the comfort of the expansive back decks—which never lack a cool, refreshing breeze—you can spend hours immersed in the ultimate birding entertainment or watch trophy-sized wildlife roam through your own backyard. This rich ecosystem is home to majestic white-tailed deer, wild turkey, black bear, and the elusive bobcat.

Whether you are sipping morning coffee on the expansive deck, watching hawks soar over the valley, or hosting gatherings against a backdrop of stunning sunsets, this property is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle.
