210 Grand View Rd

Washington, VA 22747

Grand view on Grand View. Relish the sights and sounds of nature from this beautiful nearly 8 acre parcel in the heart of Rappahannock County. The Peyton Farm neighborhood is unique. Here you'll find a caring community that is at once social but private, remote but convenient. The long paved stretch of Grand View Road is flanked by the Covington and Rush Rivers and ends just before their confluence. About halfway through this rural hamlet, along the Covington, you'll find the house answering to the name 210 along with its little cottage dressed in a matching whisper of green to blend in with the mature landscaping, neighboring forest, and mountain vistas. The slate path through the courtyard leads up just 3 stairs to a wide and welcoming porch. Once inside, enjoy the practical convenience of main level living (if needed or desired) and Xfinity HIGH SPEED INTERNET. The kitchen, dining and living areas meld seamlessly to create a space that is as ideal for hosting large dinner parties as it is for a quiet evening curled up with a good book in front of the fireplace. Three inch oak flooring throughout the main level gives rise to gorgeous cherry cabinets in the kitchen, maple built-ins in the living room, and cherry built-ins in the spacious office overlooking the courtyard. The nine foot ceilings open further with tray accents in the dining room, main level primary bedroom and sun-kissed screened porch . The large primary suite boasts 2 walk in closets, a sunset balcony, and bath with soaking tub, separate shower and dual vanities. A second full bath and spacious laundry room round out the inside of the main level. Ascend the stairs to a loft library and second bedroom suite with soaring ceilings, fabulous views, and bathroom with a clawfoot tub, separate shower and double sinks. The walkout lower level is a place for work, rest and play with a glass enclosed 2nd office, 3rd bedroom with full bath, TV or rec. room, and ample storage area. Currently functioning as a wine cellar, there is rough-in for a 5th bathroom next to the large workout room (future bedroom?). Step outside the rec. room to a therapeutic and relaxing Bullfrog spa positioned for stargazing and optimal privacy. Off the kitchen is the first of two ipe decks perfect for grilling. From there, either proceed down to the patio with its beautiful stone fireplace and raised flower bed or to the 3 season porch. A second large deck is stage to epic sunsets over the Blue Ridge. Practically speaking, there is an oversized 2 car garage, 3 zone heating and cooling, a Generac whole house generator, solar panels, a fenced yard and plenty of room for storage. The charming one bedroom cottage is a fabulous studio and/or guest house with a 2 car garage below. Just minutes to the Town of Washington and Sperryville with a wide variety of dining options from burgers and shakes to fine dining, even pizza tossed up for good measure. Warm up with a cappuccino on the way to hike in nearby Shenandoah National Park or play a quick 9 holes of golf before heading home to peaceful serenity and a quiet dinner with fresh selections from a neighborhood organic farm or convenient market. A haven for all, from artists to zealous outdoor enthusiasts, there is a lot to love about Rappahannock County. Shown by appointment only. Owners are licensed real estate agents.
