Property Description
GREAT NEW PRICE-Charming renovated farmhouse with beautiful stone addition sits on 25 acres with mature trees and gardens. The property features a large historic bank barn with 7 horse stalls on the lower level. Located in a quiet area surrounded with historic farms yet convenient to Rt. 7, Rt. 340 & I-81 between Leesburg and Winchester. Equestrians and horses can enjoy the 80' x 150' riding arena; 7 stall barn; run in shed; 3 fenced paddocks and trails. The land cannot be subdivided.
The original house was built in 1900 and has been through several restorations keeping up with the latest mechanical and interior designs. In 2010 the addition of a beautiful great room and connecting light-filled hallway enhanced the home and created access to the back yard and new patio which is made from tiles and stones from Pennsylvania. Convenient first floor bedroom with connecting bathroom offers exterior access and has terracotta flooring, beamed ceiling and lots of windows with views to the patio and back of the property. The tastefully designed great room features vaulted ceiling, walnut and mahogany floors, floor to ceiling windows and outdoor access to the rear patio.
The eat-in kitchen features tin ceiling, Hickory cabinets, built-ins, stainless steel appliances and wood floors. There are solid wood doors throughout the house. The second floor offers a nice bedroom with built-in window seat, shelving and wood floor. What can be a 3rd bedroom, den /office or sitting room has a large mirrored closet. Just put up a wall and door to completely enclose. The spacious bathroom upstairs was formerly a bedroom and features an over-sized shower with seat and double shower heads, a beautiful double vanity and private toilet area.
There are two new heat pumps. Stay connected with great Internet with Starlink!
The historic bank barn has been carefully restored and offers endless possibilities. It pre-dates the house and although we don't know the exact date it was built, at the least the stone foundation survived the burning of dairy barns in the Shenandoah Valley during the Civil War. There are no nails and screws in the barn, only wooden pegs. Sliding doors open in front and rear and there are stairs to the lower level. Weddings and other events have been enjoyed here. There is kitchen sink, counter, cabinets and storage shelves in the finished room on the upper level. The upper level of the barn is 4500+ square feet. The horse stable is accessed from the rear and by the connecting interior stair case. It includes seven nice stalls, a tack room with sink and a wash area. The aisles are wide in front of the stalls and in the rear and all covered with rubber mats. There are 3 paddocks, outside and automatic water and a run in shed. The 80 'x 150' riding arena has crushed Blue Stone footing and is located near the stables. Enjoy riding on the trails in the woods.
Additionally, there is a pond with island, a machine shed and storage shed. There are two wells and a newer septic system. The property is fully fenced and there is an equal amount or more land behind the barn compared to the land in front. The property widens on the left (East) approximately at the point of the run in shed. The back of the land is park-like and can be easily cleared for additional pasture plus it already has plenty of grass.
This charming property would be ideal for a full time residence, weekender or operated as a B&B. There are many attractions close by such as wineries, working farms and fruit orchards, historic towns and villages. Harper's Ferry is a short drive plus there is easy access to major highways to visit other historic sites such as Antietam and Gettysburg or head South to Front Royal, Skyline Drive, Luray Caverns, National Forests and beyond.
House square footage is approximate. The sellers would like the 3 horses to remain on the property if possible since it is the only home they have ever known- but negotiable.
