Property Description

Only 10 minutes outside of Lexington, Virginia, you'll find this true mountain cottage that will inspire the creative soul. Tucked away on a quiet road, this nearly 1,900 square-foot, three-bedroom, two-bath retreat sits on 13 acres with unobstructed Blue Ridge Mountain views. Everything you need for homesteading is here--including a two-story, three-stall barn with power and water, a 60x100 riding ring, and three additional powered sheds for tools, equipment, or a potential studio. The property also features a fenced, established garden area, an Asian pear orchard, and agricultural zoning that allows for goats, chickens, and more. A whole-house generator, along with both wood and propane stoves, adds to its functionality. Built in 1986 by the owner, the energy-efficient home Includes a south-facing attached greenhouse that provides passive solar heat in the winter, supplemented by a gorgeous Hearthstone soapstone wood stove. In the summer, it is shaded by a mature 45-year-old sycamore. Throughout the home, you'll find incredible craftsmanship and exquisite materials--from a river rock stone wall to local black walnut kitchen cabinets, two vintage clawfoot tubs and seven skylights that fill the space with light.
