Your dream of a private country oasis awaits! Charming home on amazing property just minutes from the Shenandoah River! Have your horse(s), goats, llams or sheep at home and raise chickens right outside your front door. Nearly 7 acres of land with a horse-yard featuring a run-in-shed (can host up to 5 horses). The house (a rambler modified to include a third level loft) features large front (2022 update) and rear decks, updated kitchen with island, table area & pantry, newer appliances and updated lighting. The family room, with deck access, features amazing views and plenty of space for day-to-day activities (cute, antique mantle to convey). Wake up in the Primary suite to gorgeous views of the horse yard and the beautiful scenary. The walk-in closet and remodeled bathroom (2022) are spacious and updated. Head up the stairs in the Primary Bedroom and find a large loft space perfect for a home office, work out area or hobby room--or all three. There is another large bedroom on the main level with access to another full bathroom. The laundry room is located on the main level, making those daily chores easier to finish, and providing extra storage. The lower level could be configured for a private suite area (addtional bedroom, full bathroom) or great family space with a family room. There is access to a fenced yard from the interior lower level, perfect as a play area or dog area. There is a full mudroom with a commercial grade dog wash, perfect after an afternoon with the horses or hiking in the woods (grooming table to be removed). So much of the charm and opportunity in this property is found outdoors! There is an apple tree as you enter the turn to approach the house (and it produces edible apples!) There is a HUGE chicken coop (owner is willing to convey the chickens, if buyer is interested) that is partially sectioned off to allow for ducks and that section contains a duck pond. There are not currently ducks on site and the partition can be removed to provide a larger hen house.Enjoy your evenings on the front deck (2023) or around a bonfire in the firepit area. Beyond the main house, there is an additional building on the property (built by a previous owner). Roughed in for an apartment upstairs (exterior stairs to the upper level replaced Sept 2026--located on the back of building), and room for parking additional vehicles and plenty of storage (currently no electricity or water to the building). With a some work, it could be a perfect boat shop, car shop, art studio or other hobbie/work space--or just a great place to store those off-season items. New roof on main house (September 2026), New Front Door (September 2026), new stove (2025), washer and dryer (2025) some new windows and sliding doors, new water softener 2022. The stone patio off of the back door was installed in 2024. Come for the property and stay for the lifestyle!!
