There's a certain luxury in having nowhere to be but exactly where you are.Tucked among the mountains of Botetourt County and surrounded by more than 15 private acres, this remarkable estate offers the kind of setting that invites you to slow down, stay awhile, and enjoy life at a different pace. Mornings begin with coffee overlooking the trees, afternoons are spent on your private tennis court, and evenings end beneath the stars in the hot tub as the mountains fade into the horizon.Designed for both gathering and retreat, the property includes a beautifully appointed main residence, a separate guest house complete with its own full kitchen, and the space to host family and friends without ever feeling crowded. Inside the main home, soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive windows, warm gathering spaces, and two fireplaces create an atmosphere that feels both grand and welcoming. The kitchen, thoughtfully renovated in May 2025, serves as the heart of the home--equally suited for quiet mornings and lively dinner parties.
Outside, winding driveways, mature trees, mountain views, and complete privacy create a setting that feels more like a destination than a residence. A three-car garage, generous outdoor living spaces, and over 15 acres of wooded beauty provide room to relax, entertain, and explore.
Some homes are simply places to live. Others become the backdrop for the memories you'll talk about for years to come. This is one of those rare places--where mountain views, privacy, and recreation feel wonderfully removed from the everyday, yet the amenities of Fincastle and the Roanoke Valley remain comfortably within reach.
