150 Forest Hill Vw, Lexington, VA 24450

Privately situated in an established neighborhood, yet only 5 minutes from downtown Lexington, this custom built, architect designed Contemporary has 3 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, BIG mountain views, and is move-in ready. Comfort and energy efficiency were priorities for the home's many recent system upgrades. With generously sized spaces and refreshed finishes and flooring, the 1st floor is designed for easy single-level living, and for hosting family and friends. Foyer opens to an impressive Great Room with a soaring cathedral ceiling, wall of windows, and fireplace. Spacious 1st-floor Primary Suite has custom plantation shutters, a luxurious full bathroom warmed by underfloor heat, and 2 walk-in closets. Kitchen features granite counters, stainless appliances, breakfast area, deck access. Complementing the main-level living areas, the 2nd floor provides two huge guest suites at either end of the loft-like Hall, which incorporates two sitting areas and storage closets. Insulated/cellular shades custom made for the Hall's balcony openings may be lowered to enhance the home's energy efficiency. Each of the two guest suites includes a large bedroom with backyard and Blue Ridge views, a reach-in closet, access to a dedicated storage room, and a large private full bathroom. These ensuite bathrooms are furnished with tiled floors, a tiled tub/shower surround, and a window overlooking the Blue Ridge mountains. The home's interior stairwell also provides access to a garden-level Recreation Room with built-ins and gas fireplace; a full bath, utility/mechanical rooms; a Hall with storage closets; and a large Workshop with abundant natural light and glass doors that access a covered Patio and the backyard. The ceilings in this lower level have also had recent insulation installed for sound dampening and improved efficiency. See Documents for a more extensive list of Features and Improvements made to the home and property. The home occupies a 3.11 acre parcel, partially fenced for pets; with a semi-circular driveway, bluestone-paved front walk, and seasonal views of House Mountain from the front. To the rear, the property offers a mix of open and wooded areas, and nearly panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The adjoining parcel of 2.74 acres -- included in the listing -- affords similar mountain views front and back, and could accommodate another home, a large garden, or your horses. The Forest Hill View subdivision has some restrictive covenants, and neighbors share road maintenance expenses, but there is no HOA and no fixed association dues.
