Just minutes from downtown Staunton, this 42 +/-acre farm is ready for your homesteading pursuits. The renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath farmhouse underwent a major restoration in 2016, including updated electric and plumbing, while preserving its country home charm. Modern touches such as solar panels and an EV charging station make this home ideal for those seeking a more green and sustainable lifestyle, complemented by a new septic system for peace of mind. The land is mostly open pasture, fenced and cross-fenced, with water hydrants to the fields and an additional well at the barn. The traditional peg-constructed bank barn provides ample space for hay, equipment, or animals and could be transformed into a remarkable restoration or barn-to-home conversion. Several smaller outbuildings add room for workshops, tools, or creative projects. Raised-bed gardens, perennial herbs and flowers, and sweeping mountain views complete the setting. With strong infrastructure and a history of sheep farming, this property is ready to become your new farm in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley. The farm is currently enrolled in land use which provides for low real estate taxes.
