Driving along the Francis Thornton Valley Road, one can easily see why it is a designated Scenic Byway. There are seemingly endless rolling fields and forest, occasionally dotted by a farmhouse or rustic barn, all with the stunning Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah National Park as the backdrop. The centerpiece of this incredible valley is the ragged and rocky ridge of Old Rag Mountain. Here, under the watchful gaze of this iconic mountain, you will find The Homeplace. 🏡 Built in an era of true craftsmanship, The Homeplace has embraced many generations and is now ready for new generations to create their own lasting memories. Solidly built and lovingly maintained, this charming Cape Cod home has been renovated with a light touch to create a feeling of retro elegance in a perfect, petite package. 🏡 This three bedroom, two bath home has original hardwood floors throughout, along with some beautiful upgrades like crown molding and recessed lighting. The rooms are light-filled and welcoming. Wake up to gorgeous sunrises in the east-facing kitchen and enjoy stunning sunsets from the west-facing living room. The spacious living room features a gas fireplace (which could be converted back to wood-burning) along with an exquisite handpainted ceiling detail. Outside the living room, there is a pretty side porch for sitting, reading, socializing, or just gazing at the mountains. From this vantage point there are panoramic views of Old Rag Mountain, Etlan Valley, and west to Syria and Double Top Mountain. There is also a lovely four-season sunroom from which to view the mountains and pastures, or step outside onto the patio to enjoy the propane grill and outdoor propane fireplace. 🏡 The home has updated windows, updated insulated vinyl siding, a paved driveway, and mature landscaping. The three-acre property includes a sturdy cinderblock building with concrete floors and a new metal roof, which could be used for storage or reinvented to be a studio or guest space. There is a T-mobile cell signal and Firefly Broadband internet is ready to be installed. 🏡 The Homeplace is situated in a location central to all that the area has to offer. Madison, Rappahannock and surrounding counties offer endless recreational possibilities. Nearby Shenandoah National Park is home to scenic Skyline Drive with its overlooks as well as many miles of trails. Only about 10 miles from Sperryville and 12 from Madison, it is also only 20 minutes or less to several popular trail heads leading into Shenandoah National Park. The trail head for the famed Old Rag Mountain is about five minutes away. It is less than five minutes to the Hughes River and about 20 minutes to the Rose and Robinson rivers for great trout fishing. There are wineries and breweries, great restaurants and cafes, antique stores, farms and orchards, and so much more to be explored. The Homeplace is the perfect base for it all.
