Showings start September 8th! Set well back from the road on 44± private acres, this Madison County horse farm combines a comfortable log home with beautifully maintained pastures, three-board fencing & a well-designed Groffdale Barns center-aisle stable just steps from the house. The 48'x36' stable currently offers 4 matted 12'x12' stalls with capacity for 6, a wash stall, tack room & hay loft. Each stall has a Dutch door opening to the outside, 4 stalls have overhead fans with speed controls, and a 10' shed-row overhang provides additional shelter. A heated automatic paddock waterer with consumption meter adds another thoughtful feature for horse care. Expansive front & rear decks overlook the pastures and surrounding countryside, providing inviting places for morning coffee, outdoor meals or watching the horses & wildlife. Inside, the open floor plan has a warm, comfortable feel with natural wood & a beautiful stone fireplace with woodstove at the heart of the living area. All 3 bedrooms are on the main level, including a spacious primary suite with large walk-in closet & renovated bath. A main-level laundry/mudroom adds everyday convenience, while Firefly fiber internet makes working from home or staying connected easy. The finished walkout basement provides additional space for recreation, hobbies or a home gym, along with a second woodstove, full bath, storage & direct access to the 2-car garage. A large detached garage offers additional room for farm equipment, vehicles, a workshop or storage. Two meandering streams border the property on 3 sides, while trails wind through park-like forests for walking or horseback riding. Wildlife is abundant, purple martins return each year & pleasant Blue Ridge Mountain views add to the setting. Whether your days include riding the trails, caring for horses or livestock, working from home, tending the farm or simply relaxing on the deck, this is a property where the land, home & farm improvements come together naturally. Located 25 miles from the Charlottesville Airport and 90 miles from Washington, D.C. and Richmond.
