Paint a picture of the perfect country retreat — Sitting with friends and family on your porch swing, enjoying a glass of local wine while watching the sun go down over the Blue Ridge with the music of a rushing river in the background.  You are pleasantly tired from hiking Old Rag Mountain and just about ready to grill the trout you caught in the Hughes River that morning.  If this sounds like what you are looking for, you must see Vineyard Haven.

 

The property is 2.3 acres bordered by the Hughes River on one side, an excellent boutique farm winery on the other and it is walking distance to the Shenandoah National Park and Old Rag Mountain.   Although relatively small acreage,  the property has generous features.  From the river, it rises to the top of a bluff where there are panoramic views of Old Rag, Nethers Hollow and the Blue Ridge Mountains.  Along the river, there is a sandy beach and shady meadow lined by rock cliffs.  This is the ideal area for an “evening out” with a picnic supper, campfire and ghost stories.  Above the meadow, there is a goat corral and old style barn made from hand-hewn timbers.  In all directions there are fine views and a sense of serenity.

 

The home was built in 1995  as a three bedroom, two and a half bath, two-story colonial.  It was  expanded in 2006 with an attached two-car garage with three rooms and another full bath upstairs.  The three  2nd floor  rooms (technically not bedrooms) are ideal for studios, offices or overflow guests.  This wing could become a great “mother-in-law” suite but it would require expansion of the septic system.  The current owners have converted the garage into a fantastic rec room for games, trains, exercise equipment and music.  It could easily be used as  a garage again if one wanted.

 

The house features a large country kitchen with center-island, breakfast area and adjoining dining room.  The dining room has French doors that open to the large deck and screened porch so there is plenty of room for big family meals and entertaining.  The heart of the living room is an impressive native fieldstone fireplace, perfect for winter evenings.  The living room has access to the screened porch and comfy porch swing.  The three bedrooms are upstairs and the master suite features a large soaking tub with a window that offers one of the best mountain views on the property.  The house also has a partially finished basement with ½ bath.

 

With its fantastic location, easy care lot and expansive home, Vineyard Haven is a gem of a property for large families and folks who want to share good times with friends.
