Come home to your private retreat on 120+ acres, on a quiet road off Puppy Creek! Behind a gate, a winding drive leads through park-like lawns dotted with ornamental trees to this brick home, tucked against a mountainside. More than 100 acres of woods, abundant with wildlife, surround the home, along with a creek and garden space. Built in 1997, the split-foyer home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the main level. A slate foyer leads up to the vaulted living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a wide picture window framing the trees. The dining room opens to a wood deck with a covered gazebo overlooking the woods. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, pantry storage, and a built-in desk. The spacious primary suite has a walk-in closet, private bath, and windows on two sides. Below, an oversized 2-car garage and a large unfinished basement with laundry, ready for storage, a workshop, or future finishing. In 2024, house was re-plumbed, new roof and gutters installed, and the septic was pumped. Heat pump, well, and Firefly Fiber internet. In land use for low taxes; no HOA. Hike, explore, or simply enjoy the privacy and seclusion, with Amherst and Lynchburg within easy reach.
