Ridgetop Manor commands a strategic site on a high spine of Poortown Mountain at the northern end of the majestic F. T. Valley near Sperryville. From this lofty and private perch, the property has expansive views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the bucolic forests and fields of the surrounding foothills. This pocket-sized estate of 30.64 acres embraces casual country living with a refined 4,500 sq. ft. farmhouse nestled in a long meadow that flows from the forest to kiss the sky. The home has a traditional front facade opening to large rooms with high ceilings and expansive windows framing the spectacular southeastern views. It has a wrap around porch, broad rear deck, a large second-floor balcony and an octagonal three level turret of windows. Mature landscaping and a lovely gunite pool with many seating areas including a private wood fireplace area.
