| 50 King David Lane![]() 50 King David LaneSperryville $525,000 King David Lane is 20 +/- interesting acres with almost everything one could want in a country property - excellent location, fields, woodlands, a small pond, plenty of privacy and a beautifully restored old farmhouse with plenty of charm. The property includes about 4.5 acres of good bottomland and the balance is a wooded hillock that rises in the center of the property. At the top of this foothill, with some gentle clearing, are outstanding 360 degree views of Old Rag, the Blue Ridge Mountains and wide expanses of rolling farmland. The property includes two separate tax map parcels, thus one can build a second home on the hilltop to take advantage of the remarkable views. The second tax map parcel affords the owner more flexibility in how the land is used and great investment potential. The land is currently in land use taxation. The grounds around the house are configured as a very pleasing homestead. There is a stream and small pond to the right of the house. Arranged around this delightful water feature are an old barn, garden area and several useful dependencies. The pond offers recreation, fishing and landscaping opportunities and it is a virtual kaleidoscope of light and reflections that change with the wind and weather. The house itself is a four bedroom, three full bath home that began life in the 1850’s as a traditional two over two farmhouse. Through the years the house was enlarged and modernized with the most recent addition and upgrades done in 2000 by the current owners. The original heart of pine floors, woodwork, trim, and mantels are all intact giving the home an authentic ambience. The house has twin fieldstone chimneys and four functioning fireplaces. For an older house, the rooms are surprisingly large and splashed with lots of natural light. The house has two great outdoor spaces for enjoying the natural beauty that surrounds it. Across the front is a broad open porch that faces west. It is the ideal spot for relaxing at the end of the day and watching the sun set. On left rear is a large screened porch that is perfect for outdoor entertaining when the weather is suitable. King David Lane is a property that calls out to be used and enjoyed. It is simple and authentic and a fine place to enjoy country living.
