BELLAIR – Iconic 1947 mid-century modern residence set on 8.2 private acres w/ exceptional views over the Boars Head Amenities & Farmington to the Blue Ridge Mountains.

The entrance hall leads to a spacious living room, kitchen, dining room, full bath & sunroom, all oriented to the surrounding landscape. A separate main-level wing off the kitchen provides a comfortable guest suite w/ a sitting room, kitchenette, bedroom & full bath.
