This is a unique property in beautiful rural Rockbridge County, VA. There are 98 acres, mixed mature hardwood and cedar forest and fields. The site is very private with no visible neighbors, yet is only 9 miles from Lexington. It was a working farm until about 50 years ago, and retains the appearance of a turn-of-the century farm. There are 2 houses, the main house that was built in the early 1900s, and the Granary (2 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms) that was converted into a dwelling in 2006. Since then it has been used as a weekend rental for visitors to the area, but would also serve as a home or guest-house. The fenced yard surrounding the main house is beautifully landscaped with mature plants, flowers, shrubs and trees. There is a garden with raised-beds, surrounded by deer-proof fencing. The former spring-house now serves as a shop and storage area. There are also an old smokehouse, a garden shed, and chicken house -currently vacant, but available for long or short-term occupancy. There is a well-preserved timber-frame barn constructed from chestnut and a newer open pole-barn with a fenced paddock. An adjacent property is bordered by land in conservation easement, so there will never be any construction on it. The house and land are on the southern slope of Hogback Mountain, nestled between two ridges. It has perfectly-situated Feng Shui. The most delicious water that you will ever drink is supplied from a spring above the house. There are 3 creeks that flow from the several ravines that converge above the house. Wildlife abounds: turkey, grouse, deer, bear, hawks and numerous regional and migrating birds. In Rockbridge County, there are few remaining large properties offering such beauty and privacy. Come and see. You will be entranced.
