Retreat to this picture perfect mountain cabin. Nothing but peace, quiet and nature all around. Bear Wallow dead-ends, so no thru-traffic. This home was handcrafted by an excellent builder and has been extensively updated by the current owners. It is a blend of salvaged barn wood, hand hewn beams, stones pulled from the property, pine floors and painted wood wainscoting. The house features iron work from local blacksmith Nol Putnam whose forge once neighbored this land. The gardens are a host to native plants poplars, hickory, oak, dogwoods, redbuds and service berry provide a haven for birds and a shady retreat for people. A stream fed pond is a focal point for the grounds and provides a busy watering hole for local wildlife! The kitchen boasts quartz countertops, stainless steel Bosch dishwasher, JenAir range and GE refrigerator and views through two bay windows down the hill and to the pond. The large main floor bedroom offers an en suite with new stone tiled shower and private stone patio accessed through French doors. Take in the view of the pond from the Juliet balcony in the upstairs bedroom. A full bath and loft which overlooks the living room and fireplace complete the second floor. Gather around the stone fireplace in the winter and enjoy a covered front porch and large 30x13 sun deck in the warmer months. Fish or just take in the sound of the frogs at the pond-side deck. Internet works well here with MOFI (included) from 2 cell towers. The home is located close to the village of Flint Hill and its popular restaurants: The Blue Door, Griffin Tavern and Skyward Caf. Ten minutes away is Little Washington with its famed Inn, as well as other restaurants, shops and a Sunday Farmers Market. A few minutes further drive lands you in Sperryville where locals and day trippers alike hang out at Rappahannock Pizza Kitchen, grab a drink at one of the micro breweries or distillery and stock up on gourmet provisions at the Sperryville Corner Store.
