Clean family-friendly 5BR in the HEART of Virginia's Wine Country -- Amazing views, basement game room, new outdoor patio

Come to Sunnyside! A new 5 bedroom home with game room, hot tub, and space for 12 people on 4 acres on a private farm road. Just off the infamous Route 151, or "Brew Ridge Trail", you are RIGHT in the middle of the action: 7 minutes to 10 wineries / breweries, 5 minutes to the nearest family farm or golf course, 10 minutes to Skyline Drive with PLENTY of places to hike, and 25 minutes to skiing at Wintergreen.

You are surrounded by jaw-dropping mountain views/sunsets that surprise every guest.

*** SPECIAL: 4 free Wintergreen lift tickets with a three night stay in January or February 2025!! Valid on Bookings after November 24 2024, while supplies last!! ***

Sunnyside is a picturesque mountain retreat nestled in the heart of Afton, VA. This inviting, family-friendly home promises a perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort, ensuring an unforgettable getaway for families and friends alike.

As you pull up the driveway at the end of a cul-de-sac you are greeted by the expansive front porch adorned with inviting rocking chairs, where you can unwind and soak in the surrounding landscape. As you enter the main living area, you'll be greeted by a spacious family room complete with a large sectional sofa, perfect for your group to plan or reminisce about your day in Nelson County.

The well-appointed kitchen features a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and floor-to-ceiling cabinets stocked with all the essentials. Enjoy morning coffee in the breakfast nook overlooking the majestic mountains. For meals, gather in the proper dining room around the table with seating for eight (plus space for 5 more in the kitchen).

Venture outdoors to the elevated back deck through double sliding doors, where you can savor a drink at the table for four or grill dinner on the high-quality Weber gas grill.

Downstairs you will find a newly finished basement and walkout door to a 500 square foot patio with outdoor dining for 10, a hot tub, four adirondack chairs, and mountain views that will knock your socks off. The game room will provide hours of entertainment for kids and adults between a 9 foot shuffleboard table, Pop-A-Shot, Pac-Man arcade with 10 classic arcade games and Infinity game table with 50 classic board games.

Outside, the adventure continues with a picnic table, swings, and a large fire pit surrounded by eight Polywood Adirondack chairs, perfect for cozy evenings under the stars. Explore the expansive property with paths leading to a nearby creek, where little ones can explore, splash, and play to their hearts' content.

Stay connected with blazing-fast fiber Wifi (105 Mbps) accessible throughout the house, ideal for remote work or streaming entertainment.

When it's time to rest, retreat to one of the five thoughtfully appointed bedrooms, three of which are upstairs:

The primary bedroom boasts a luxurious king bed, walk-in closet, and a spa-like ensuite bathroom with clean white marble finishes.

The second bedroom features a comfortable queen bed and a large walk-in closet.

The third bedroom, designed for kids or care-free adults, offers two white bunk beds and a small TV room.

Downstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms:

The fourth bedroom offers a queen bed, a private full bath with subway tile shower, and a cozy play nook for kids.

The fifth bedroom serves as a versatile space in the game room with a pull-out sofa bed (Full size) and comfortable accommodations.

Don't miss the opportunity to experience the magic of Sunnyside in Afton! Come stay with us and see why 200 5-star reviews can’t be wrong!

-------

You are staying on 4 acres of an old farm. Only 6 houses on the private road and you are at the end of the cul de sac. From the back deck there is not a house in site. And you TRULY are in the middle of everything in Afton.

-----

We bought the home in 2019 for our family of five because we love the area. There are so many things for families to do together, and adults to do on their own. We love the peach orchards, berry farms, hiking, driving Skyline Drive year-round (especially when the leaves change in Autumn), Wintergreen skiing in the Winter, and wide open spaces for kids to play free at the nearby parks, trails, and wide-open spaces at the breweries and wineries. When we go with just adults, we love the wineries... it's the Napa of the East Coast :)
This is a great house for family and friends. We ask that you are neighborly and treat the house and neighborhood as you would your own.

Beautiful and clean property with gorgeous views!

The home was beautiful and so clean! You get a guidebook that clearly explains how to operate tvs, hot tub, etc, and it even detailed some great restaurants in the area that was super helpful! Communication was wonderful, and I had an incredible stay. The hot tub was very clean and the views from the balcony were stunning. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a serene getaway!

Mountain holiday getaway

My family gathered here for an early christmas weekend getaway. This location was perfectly in the middle of where we all live, while also being near Charlottesville and vineyards. The house was located at the end of a gravel drive with spacious views, a creek to go explore and equipped with a hot tub and firepit. The house was well furnished with plenty of bedding and towels and every sort of kitchen utensil or cookery. The game room was a perfect spot for the kids to play. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a weekend getaway.

This is a lovely, clean, new house with nice amenities for kids and adults. We especially enjoyed the glowing sunsets behind the Blue Ridge Mountains followed by millions of fireflies putting on an encore performance a little bit later.

Incredible Bachelorette Weekend at This Gorgeous Home

We recently celebrated my best friend's bachelorette weekend at this stunning property, and it was everything we could have hoped for and more! The views were absolutely breathtaking — we couldn’t get enough of the beautiful surroundings. The home itself was spacious, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything we could possibly need, from dishes and towels to extra blankets and beds. It was truly a home away from home. The check-in and check-out process was seamless, which made everything so much easier. The VRBO hosts were fantastic — very responsive and attentive to all of our questions, ensuring that we had everything we needed for a smooth stay. I would absolutely love to return to this home for future getaways, and we’ll definitely be recommending it to our friends and family. Such a perfect place for any occasion!
