Property Description

This 130-acre secluded Shenandoah Valley farm property is a mixture of open fields and forest land, and so private that no otherdwelling or other non-owned edifice can be seen from the large open area surrounding the log house. The historic house was reviewed by hewn-loghouse expert Charles McRaven in 1979 and found to have been built between 1815 and 1820. The land is bordered on two sides by National Forest, andthe Forest provides much privacy on the north and west sides. A high hill on the north side sits at 1700 feet and provides a beautiful vista of mountainridges into West Virginia. The hill was perked for two two-bedroom houses, with the implication that it will perc for a four-bedroom house with anequivalent drain field. No other dwelling or edifice can be seen from the property, so it is completely private. Dark skies at night allow the Milky Way tobe seen; there are no sounds that are not natural. A large chestnut hand-pegged barn provides very ample storage on two floors and includes garagebays. So does a large three-bay fully electrified, insulated shed that includes a separate shop room. There is a smoke house, a utility shed, and a shedfor a tractor and its accessories.
