Fifty private acres. Rolling pastures. A mountain creek. Five creek-fed lakes. Mature trees, open fields and a setting in the Blue Ridge Mountains that simply cannot be recreated. The home was originally built in 1963, with a straightforward architectural design sitting in a wonderful position within the estate. Wake to the fields. End the day beneath the mountains. This is an estate with enough land to make room for both beauty and usefulness. Horses in the pasture. Flowers beside the barn. Vegetables coming into the kitchen.

Whether your vision is a refined equestrian residence, a sophisticated mountain lodge, or a warm family retreat, the setting provides the perfect canvas.

There is something timeless about looking across a field in the early morning and seeing horses grazing in the mist, or watching them make their way across the pasture as the sun begins to disappear behind the mountains.
