One of the key features of this home is that it sits on 8 acres of sprawling forest - there's walking access to the Blue Ridge parkway and mountains to sea trail, a nearby pond and fire-pit and ample privacy to be enjoyed. Take in the starlight on the front porch with an evening cocktail. Get the whole group cooking in the chef's kitchen with dual ovens and dishwashers, a large farmhouse sink, and plentiful counter space - perfect for holidays! Roast s'mores by the fire-pit or curl up in the living room for board games and movie night, the options are endless!
Bring your pets and let them roam in the fenced in side yard, or on the large gated front porch!
The master bedroom is on the main level of the home, right off the living room. It's the only bedroom on the main floor and boasts a king size bed, en-suite bathroom with a brand new steam shower and jacuzzi tub, a walk in closet, and a separate room designed as a dedicated workspace. The workspace has a desk and chair, and is surrounded by windows to let the natural light and forested surrounding in.
There is a separate half bath on the main level, just off the living room.
Downstairs there are 2 bedrooms - one with 2 queen beds, the other with 1 queen bed. The downstairs family room has a fireplace, king size bed and pullout couch. Please note that the downstairs family room has a door separating the upstairs and downstairs, but does not have a door to the hallway where the downstairs bedrooms and bathroom are located.
The downstairs bathroom has a shower/tub combination. The laundry room is available for your use but please note that it is an unfinished laundry room - it serves as a utility room only.
The gas grill is located on the front porch along with cushioned chairs and a bench swing.
A quick walk down the driveway and along a path through the trees sits the pond and fire pit. You are welcome to use this space anytime. It sits on the owner's property (Lysa and Bryan). They are lovely people and might say hello to you at the fire pit. A starter supply of wood, fire starter, a fire stick and a lighter are supplied at the fire-pit for your use.
