OVER 12 ACRES in a wonderfully private location. Situated nicely between Lexington and Staunton, this home offers easy one level living, along with tons of expandability with full attic and full basement - both just begging to be finished. Easy flow, and huge kitchen opens to a full-length deck across the back. Well-appointed, one level lifestyle home with so much more additional space. Awesome views of your own personal domain! Just outside the GW National Forest and near 2 stocked trout streams. Buried utilities, and 9 of the 12 AC has underground dog fence which stays. Check school stats! This could easily be a fantastic 3 level home with tons of outdoor space. Paradise for the soul, indoors and out. Amazing potential.
