Spacious Country Retreat with Studio & Generator Backup
This charming 3,686 sq ft country-style home sits on 1.87 peaceful acres and includes a detached 400 sq ft building with electricity, lighting, and a ceiling fan—perfect as an artist’s studio, workshop, or entertaining space.
Peace of Mind: A whole-house generator (included) restores power within 30 seconds of an outage. It runs on a 1,000-gallon rented propane tank from Holtzman, offering extended reliability.
Outdoor Charm: A private “Secret Garden,” accessible from both the kitchen and primary bath, creates an ideal setting for relaxation or entertaining.
Inside, the home features three spacious bedrooms, each with its own full en-suite bath. The main-level primary suite includes vaulted ceilings, a pellet stove, both walk-in and reach-in closets, and a luxurious bathroom. The family room offers a wood stove and soaring ceilings, while skylights throughout the home bring in abundant natural light. There are custom built-ins, window seats with storage, a walk-in pantry, a main-level storage closet with built-in shelving, and even a dedicated “Christmas Closet” on the second level. A private office, high-speed internet access, and a two-car garage add to the home's functionality. All windows are double-hung for easy maintenance.
Both the main house and detached building were recently upgraded with new vinyl siding and fresh paint, completed within the past seven months.
The property is easily accessible via paved, well-maintained roads. The grounds are rich with native flora including Trillium, Yellow Lady's Slipper, Blood Root, Jack-in-the-Pulpit, and Morel mushrooms. Just minutes away, Deer Lake offers a sandy beach and fishing pier. The Appalachian Trail, wildlife areas, and local wineries like Fox Meadows and Linden Vineyards are all close by.
This home offers unmatched privacy, free from traffic noise and streetlights, allowing for peaceful enjoyment of nature and wildlife. From the side deck, take in winter views of Winchester, Stephens City, and Front Royal. Though tucked away in a serene setting, the home is only 15 minutes from I-66 for quick access to Fairfax County and Washington, D.C., or west to the Shenandoah River at Morgan’s Ford with its free canoe launch and parking.
