Imagine breathtaking views as far as the eye can see, gazing at magnificent sunsets, and overlooking the fertile Shenandoah Valley where the mighty Shenandoah River lazily winds its way north. Welcome to the 'Outpost', an unassuming mountain hide-away perched high atop the Blue Ridge, yet only 65 miles from downtown Washington D.C. Meticulously maintained, this home offers a surprising 2300 sq.ft. of living area on three levels, wood floors and walls, beamed ceilings, and two floor to ceiling fireplaces, one with woodstove insert. All modern conveniences are at your fingertips, a fully equipped kitchen with dining area, four bedrooms and two full baths, laundry room with washer, dryer and double sink, even High Speed Internet. The open floor plan makes entertaining or family gatherings a breeze. Enjoy the spaciousness of the living room featuring a large picture window for prime viewing. Sliding glass doors lead out to a large 28x10 covered porch, sure to become your favorite place! A connecting side deck gives access to the front yard. The downstairs includes a family room plus game room, bedroom, bath & laundry room, and walks out to a 28x10 patio with ample room for your hammock! A separate sun deck occupies the most private corner of the property, and landscaping was thoughfully planned with deer resisting plants. The loft, which can be closed off for privacy or when not in use, stretches from front to back, has its own sitting area and offers a variety of options for sleeping arrangements. Views are splendid from all levels. With the Appalachian Trail just a few hundred yards away, hiking here is some of the best. The natural beauty is breathtaking and, in the spring, the area is ablaze with flowering mountain laurel and wild blueberry bushes. Dramatic rock outcroppings and the diverse flora and fauna truly make this a special place. The area has much to offer whether you are inspired by Nature, like to immerse yourself in Civil War history, enjoy the thrill of Thoroughbred Racing, or try your luck at gambling in Charles Town's Hollywood Casino. The more adventurous can experience the thrill of river rafting and tubing, or try out the area's new zip-line. But your favorite part of the day will most likely be sitting on the porch, enjoying the magnificent views!
