The Kitchen Is the Heart of the Home
The eat-in kitchen has been recently renovated but keeps its old soul. There’s a farm sink, gas cooking, and a custom wood bar built right next to the original exposed chimney. A butler’s staircase tucked into the kitchen leads upstairs, which is a nice detail you don’t see in newer homes.

Mountain Views From Every Direction
The front porch looks out over the mountains, the kind of view that makes you want to sit outside with your coffee and not move for a while. Depending on which way you’re facing, you can see the Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah National Park, or the Massanutten range. There’s very little outside light out here either, so the stargazing is excellent.

- Panoramic views
- Garden, pasture, and pond views
- Minimal light pollution, good for stargazing
