Can you imagine literally coming home to the mountains everyday? It can be a reality! And in Afton, too! Located only 30 minutes from UVA & 15 minutes from Waynesboro, the convenience of this mountain home is superb. The exterior of the home was freshly painted in 11/2024. The current owners installed solar panels in 05/2023, dramatically increasing the efficiency of this home! Current monthly electric bills for this 4-bedroom home w/ over 3,000 sqft average roughly $170. Installation of a whole house generator in 02/2023 takes away any worries about power interruptions! Open floor plan b/w the main living area & kitchen allows you to never miss a moment. Just wait until you see the way the rustic LVP is complemented by the soapstone surrounding the fireplace & the post & beam ceiling design! The sound of rain against the metal roofing will certainly be a comfort while you continue to enjoy the mountain scenes provided here! So many major system upgrades have also occurred less than 5 years ago. The quality & vintage charm of the furnishings that convey w/ this property are outstanding! The 3-car garage is ideal for storage of vehicles or any toys you have! Home is being sold fully furnished & is ready for short term rentals!
