If you are looking for seclusion and privacy, this is it! (Please do not attempt a drive-by. Property is very secluded and drive-bys are not possible.) This rural, mountain hollow home with a separate professional shop is located a stone’s throw from the Appalachian trail and 2.5 miles from I-66 and The Apple House. The home was taken down to the studs by the owners in 1984, with only the original red cedar floors left intact. An addition and a standing metal roof were added (1996) with a large living/dining room and two large bedrooms on the upper level that open onto a balcony. These rooms have incredible natural light with huge Pella windows and doors. Also on the 2nd floor is a room currently used as an art studio that could potentially be a 3rd bedroom (note: only 2BR septic system), and a study which could be converted to an upper floor bathroom. The finished attic can be accessed via pull-down stairs from one of the bedrooms. In 2024, the owner had the electric service upgraded, installed a new well pressure tank, a propane furnace and a propane powered whole house generator. Additionally, a new stainless steel liner was installed in the chimney that vents the wood cooking stove and wood heating stove (in cellar). If you prefer gas cooking, there is a propane stove as well, along with a dishwasher and stainless steel refrigerator. The home does not have central air conditioning, but a condenser could be added by the new owner. The shop on the property is the perfect spot for the car enthusiast, welder or woodworker. It has excellent lighting, a ventilation fan, a car lift, welding table, air compressor, access to water, and propane heat to keep you warm while working in the Winter. 4 acres of mixed hardwood woods, rock outcropping, flowering trees, an abundance of natural springs, a nature trail and fenced organic gardens create your private haven. Enjoy evenings Creekside grilling or sitting around the firepit. Please review Warren County zoning ordinance for Ag zoning permissions. An additional 3.5ac adjoining lot with a historic log home may also be available to purchaser; inquire with agent.
