Description

In real estate, it’s all about location. This isn’t just a location—it’s a high-cation. Opportunities like this are exceedingly rare: surrounded by large, protected parcels—many in conservation easement—in the heart of Hunt Country, under $1M, and an hour to Washington, D.C. This is the unicorn, offering a truly uncommon chance to embrace peaceful, abundant country living without compromise.Awaiting its next stewards, this picture-perfect vintage farmhouse is beautifully sited on 15 acres in coveted Blue Ridge Hunt territory, where a constant breeze and soft eastern mountain views set the rhythm of daily life.A winding half-mile drive sets the tone, leading to a storybook setting where historic charm meets modern ease. Inside, original hardwood floors, custom built-ins, and a wood-burning fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere. Three well-appointed bedrooms feature tailored storage, while a dedicated home office, laundry/mudroom with utility sink, and a private outdoor shower add thoughtful functionality. Every room is framed by picturesque views of the surrounding landscape.Outdoors, the property is equally compelling. A two-story barn with electricity offers three stalls, a workshop, and ample space for hobbies or future expansion. Additional improvements include a large metal equipment shed, a smaller ruminant barn, and repurposed grain silos reimagined as charming chicken houses—blending practicality with a touch of whimsy.During their time here, the current owners have thoughtfully shaped the land for both beauty and utility—clearing acreage for pasture, adding extensive fencing, and creating a productive vegetable garden. The groundwork is in place for small-scale animal husbandry and a true farm-to-table lifestyle. It’s a property that invites you to live off the land, surrounded by character and authenticity that typically commands a far higher price point.For those looking to expand, the vision is already in place. Veritas Construction—renowned for their mastery of historic additions and timeless design—has created expansion plans for both the home and barn, seamlessly blending old and new. These plans convey with the property, offering a turnkey path to elevate the estate while preserving its original charm. The dream of country living is already here—quiet, intentional, and deeply rooted in the land—yet thoughtfully prepared for its next chapter.Ideally located just 6 miles to Berryville, 8 miles to Winchester, and just 20 minutes to Middleburg, this offering strikes a rare balance—peaceful, private, and beautifully connected. NO DRIVE INS PLEASE.
