Ideally located just over a mile from the town of Washington, this mountain view property, dubbed The Meadowlark, includes 13.3 acres of rolling hay meadows, wooded areas and over 300 feet of Rush River frontage, which is easily accessed by a path that follows a small stream as it flows toward the river. Along the river's edge, there are cleared areas and boulders that make the perfect spot to unwind and listen to the sound of the rippling water. The main house, completed in 1990, features vaulted ceilings, a cozy wood stove, and two bedrooms and two full baths. An additional bedroom, bath, sleeping loft and family room with another wood stove are located in the older chalet style camp house which is connected by a breezeway, making it perfect for overflow guests or an art/hobby studio. Two decks take advantage of Western and Southern views. The homes are nestled among mature trees to ensure perfect privacy, and make a peaceful relaxing retreat less than 60 miles from the Capital Beltway. Enjoy nearby wineries and breweries, fine dining destinations, galleries, theaters and hiking in Shenandoah National Park. Just imagine the possibilities for future updates and expansions to make this your dream home, and with a selective clearing of trees you will create even more stunning views! Can convey partially furnished if desired. Agricultural use keeps property taxes down. Priced below assessment.
