    This one-of-a-kind, private, resort-style retreat in the heart of the infamous "Shenandoah Valley" offers the perfect blend of luxury, peace, and convenience. Sitting on 4.83 acres and offering over 4,000 square feet of living space, this exceptional property is surrounded by some of the area's most popular attractions including the Mimslyn Inn, Hawksbill Greenway, Caverns Country Club Resort, Luray Caverns, Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park, Mindrolling Lotus Garden, Lake Arrowhead, Kennedy Peak, and Skyline Drive, just to name a few. Conveniently located approximately 10 minutes from shopping, restaurants, and the hospital, and less than two hours from Washington, DC. Tucked away on a quiet private road with breathtaking 360-degree mountain views, this meticulously maintained property is fully fenced with a gated entrance featuring solar lighting, offering unmatched privacy where the only sounds you’ll hear are those of nature. The beautifully landscaped grounds feature five landscaping islands, mature plantings, multiple fruit trees, a fenced raised-bed garden area, fenced dog run, target shooting area, barn/stable with upstairs loft and solar power, plus a new storage shed. The home itself has undergone extensive renovations and upgrades throughout. A welcoming oversized covered front porch leads into a stunning open-concept interior filled with natural light, highlighted by walls of picture windows, skylights, and panoramic mountain views from nearly every room. Hardwood flooring runs throughout the home, while all bathrooms feature ceramic tile. The spacious kitchen is designed for both entertaining and everyday living with gorgeous granite countertops, an island with additional cabinetry, peninsula bar seating, deep farmhouse sink with reverse osmosis filtration for healthy water, gas cooking, newer stainless steel appliances, and 42-inch cabinetry. The adjoining living room features a dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone gas fireplace as its centerpiece. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat, entered through elegant French doors into a private sitting area and oversized bedroom with tray ceiling, walk-in closet with pocket door and safe, and a luxurious ensuite bath with double vanities and tiled walk-in shower. Additional French doors lead directly to the rear deck. The main level also offers a beautiful library with custom bookshelves, a full bath, additional exterior entrance, and an oversized laundry/pantry area complete with abundant cabinetry, storage, laundry sink, and extra refrigerator. Upstairs, you’ll find two additional spacious bedrooms, each with their own private full bathroom and cozy reading nooks. Between the bedrooms is a large sitting/recreation area featuring additional built-in reading nooks, storage, and a closet with sink and room for a mini refrigerator — perfect for guests or multi-generational living. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a large rear deck offering multiple access points from throughout the home, steps leading to an entertaining patio, and a screened-in porch with ceiling fans overlooking the incredible scenery. Additional features include: • Attached oversized 2-car garage with workshop area and mudroom featuring dog wash tub • New roof installed in 2024 • Whole-house 26KW Generac generator for uninterrupted power and water • New well pump and piping • 80-gallon water heater • Whole-house filtration system with water softener and UV light Every detail of this extraordinary property has been thoughtfully designed, upgraded, and meticulously cared for, creating a truly rare opportunity to own a private mountain retreat in one of Virginia’s most scenic locations.
