Layered Mountain Views on 20.42 Acres – A Refined Appalachian Homestead Property with a $10,000.00 seller credit to the buyer that could be used for renovations, furniture, and/or closing expenses.
This is the view you’ve been waiting for—multi-layered, long-range vistas stretching from Grassy Creek into the Virginia Highlands. Whether you're sipping coffee in the living room, relaxing on the back deck, waking up in the upstairs bedrooms, or soaking in the hot tub; the panoramic view is front and center. With 1,428 square feet of decking, the outdoor living space is just as captivating as the indoors—ideal for entertaining, unwinding, or simply taking in the beauty of the Blue Ridge. The home is unfurnished and the listing photos with furniture are virtually staged.
This home is set on 20.42 acres and does not have the steep climb for the view you often see in our area. This Appalachian retreat offers both natural beauty and everyday practicality. ATV trails lead from the home to the lower portion of the property, making it easy to explore, hunt, or access different areas of the land.
Despite its peaceful seclusion, you're never far from convenience—the nearest grocery is 19 minutes to the Food Lion in Jefferson, 25 minutes to the shops and restaurants of downtown West Jefferson, 15 minutes to Kings Creek New River public access, and only 9 minutes to the Old Store at Grassy Creek and the River House Inn & Restaurant.
Inside, the home reflects quality and craftsmanship throughout. The kitchen and bathrooms feature granite countertops and high-end cabinetry, while wide wood moldings, true hardwood floors, and stainless steel appliances add warmth and character. A cozy, vented gas stove in the living room provides comfort during cooler months, all while you enjoy those stunning mountain views. The home’s exterior is equally well-crafted, with Hardiplank board and batten siding, Anderson casement windows, and porcelain tile in high-traffic areas like the bathrooms, mudroom, basement laundry, and expansive lower level.
One of the standout features is the walk-out basement guest suite, complete with a private bath and direct access to the hot tub—an ideal setup for visitors or multi-generational living. The large downstairs game room offers plenty of space for a pool table and other activities, making it a great spot for entertaining or relaxing indoors.
Outdoors, a 1,437-square-foot metal shop with three bays provides ample room for hobbies, storage, or workspace. A charming shed with a covered porch adds both utility and character—perfect for pets, gardening tools, or creative projects. The property is well-suited for homesteading, with space for up to 10 livestock, established perennial beds, a vegetable garden area, and a graded site ready for a future guest house or studio.
For those who enjoy hunting, the area is known for its abundant wildlife and big bucks. Development restrictions allow you the freedom to hunt on your own land, adding to the property’s appeal for outdoor enthusiasts.
Come for the view. Stay for the lifestyle. Schedule your showing today and experience everything this extraordinary mountain retreat has to offer.
