Property Description
Welcome to this cherished property and boutique winery, with a long history of award-winning wines and priceless views of the Shenandoah Valley. Set on 6.53 scenic acres, with a beautifully manicured vineyard, the original fieldstone house was built in 1893, subsequently operating as an inn for visitors from Washington DC, who would travel by train on the Washington and Old Dominion railroad (today the W&OD trail), to enjoy the cooler summer temperatures at this higher elevation.
In 1998, the house was meticulously restored by the current owner, incorporating modern conveniences while retaining the exquisite architectural beauty of a bygone era. Entering the house through the classic flagstone floor vestibule reveals an open plan dining room and living room, with gorgeous hardwood floors, and wonderful beamed ceilings and millwork. The bright kitchen, opening with French doors from the dining room, has granite counters with a white tiled backsplash and center island. Beyond the dining room and kitchen is the family room with a wall of windows from which to take in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley views.
Off the hall is a cozy sitting room with access to the first-floor full bath, which also serves as a powder room. The back hall accesses the laundry room and French doors to a spacious deck.
Upstairs on the second level is the primary bedroom, with attached bathroom and spacious private den with western facing windows taking in the sunset views. There are two further bedrooms on the second level, and a bright hall bath.
The lower level is home to the winery with four large rooms, including barrel room with cathedral ceiling, and a large storage room for equipment, as well as a full bathroom and mechanicals.
A short stroll to the tasting room reveals a substantial facility, with beamed cathedral ceilings, and a view-facing wall of windows, a serving bar and kitchen plus two restrooms, and two propane fireplaces.
Extensive decks off the testing room provide significant outdoor space to enjoy the breathtaking valley views, as well as the lush, manicured vineyard below. Beneath the tasting room is a private club room with a fireplace and large additional storage and utility room.
In addition, the property features a storage barn next to the vineyard, a small stone storage building and an adorable stone guest cottage, with an open living area, Murphy bed, kitchenette and bathroom. Set on over six west facing acres, the fine property with its picturesque vineyard – half in 20-year old vines and half with 10-year old grapevines - is now ready for its next stewards to continue an incredible legacy into the future
