Timeless Elegance And Modern Luxury On Expansive Estate

Showings by appointment only, including during open houses. This is a magical place in the heart of Northern Fauquier County, only one hour from Washington DC. Close to picturesque country villages, wineries, inns, farm-to-table restaurants, and the Shenandoah Mountains, the location is remarkable. The property offers peace, privacy, serenity. The older part of the house was built around 1880, a first major remodel was done in the late 1990s (and got an award), and in 2017 a new west side added a modern master suite, a family room, an office, a second basement, and elevator, and a two-car garage. Swimming pool was recently renovated too. House is equipped with solar and geothermal sources of energy. Enjoy wonderful views from the four bedrooms (three en suite) and from the delightful main level that features an open kitchen, dining room, living room with French doors to a deck, family room opening to a stone patio, office, and a sunroom with a wooden stove. A huge unfinished basement awaits input from the new owners. The barn upper level offers a 1br/1ba apartment, with a deck, and plenty of attic space. On the main level is a half bath, 6 stalls, tack room, and wash stall. A pole barn, a fenced-in vegetable garden, beautiful hardscapes, and 78 acres of rolling hills complete this amazing offering.
