About This Property

Nestled on 5.78 private acres just minutes from Historic Lexington, this Cape Cod offers the perfect combination of privacy, mountain views, and room to explore. Enjoy beautiful views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the surrounding valley while still being just a short drive from shopping, dining, Washington and Lee University, and Virginia Military Institute. One of the property's most unique features is the approximately one mile of private trails that wind through the woods to a secluded spot below. Whether you enjoy hiking, exploring, or simply spending time outdoors, this property gives you the opportunity to enjoy nature right in your own backyard. The expansive screened porch, measuring more than 430 square feet, is truly the heart of the home. From here, you'll enjoy sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the valley below as the landscape changes with the seasons. It's the perfect place to start your day with your favorite morning beverage, unwind in the evening, or gather with family and friends while taking in some of the most beautiful scenery Rockbridge County has to offer.

Inside, the home offers a practical and comfortable layout with a main-level primary suite, two additional bedrooms upstairs, and a partially finished walkout basement that works well as a home office, den, workout space, or hobby room. Large windows bring in plenty of natural light, and the home has been thoughtfully maintained over the years.

Recent improvements include a new HVAC system in 2017, an updated fireplace mantel, new interior light fixtures, built-in bookshelves in the upstairs hallway, a new dishwasher, an under-sink water filtration system, a 240V Level 2 EV charger, selective tree removal to enhance the mountain views, and a recently serviced septic system.

If you've been looking for a property that offers privacy, usable acreage, beautiful views, and easy access to Lexington, this home is one you won't want to miss.
