Ex...
Exquisite home, built in 2005 offers over 6,500 finished Sq Ft and is
perched perfectly in the middle of the 56 acres, atop a knoll, with views of
majestic mountains and valleys, accessed by a long private and paved
driveway... yet only 1 minute to Route 11 with easy access to Interstate
81, Lexington, Daleville and Roanoke
Exterior of the home features an expansive screened porch, low
maintenance cement board siding, standing seam metal roof, plus Trex
board and vinyl railing on both the covered front porch and back deck,
fenced yard, & driveway around house
In addition to the oversized 2-car attached garage, the owner has added a
detached 3-car garage and workshop which features a car-lift (9,000 lb
capacity), large compressor and loft
The lower pasture offers a 6-stall, center-aisle horse barn with walk-up loft,
water, electric, run-in sheds and several turnouts
They've also fenced and nurtured a vegetable garden plot, and planted a
fruit orchard of peaches, pear, apples, plum & apricot
Owners have lovingly groomed the land, so that approximately 2/3rds of
the property is in pasture, while the remaining 1/3rd is in hardwoods, which
reaches to the ridge up behind the house; it offers wildlife habitat as well
as trails for walking, hiking, riding horses or riding recreational vehicles.
There is a year-round stream along the front of the property.
A second parcel is included, situated along the railroad track, crossing the
stream, and provides for a secondary access from Pico Rd to the lower
field and horse barn area
