38822 OLD WHEATLAND RD

Description

Welcome to your new and amazingly scenic, private 20-acre retreat, nestled in the midst of a countryside rich with history. A large piece of land is hard to find, especially one with such gorgeous views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. You'll admire the tree-lined driveway as you make your way onto the property. Enter the home, and you'll immediately notice the freshly painted walls and trim. To the right of the entry foyer there is a south-facing bedroom with sunny windows gracing the ceiling and wall. Across the hall, a larger set of windows, and wood-beamed ceiling standout in the dining room. French doors separate the dining room from the sunroom, which is highlighted by its unique ceiling structure. It also has a door to the outside and brand new windows wrapping around the room with views of the yard. A laundry nook is on the main floor, with appliances under five years old. The kitchen has stainless steel appliances, including a brand new stove and dishwasher, and newer refrigerator. Cooks rejoice with the pantry closet! The main level of the home also has an office, full bathroom, and unfinished utility/storage area. The heart of the home is the living room, a uniquely impressive place. Towering windows flood the room with sunlight. Wooden columns, beams and panels surround the vast two-story space. A considerably sized wood-burning fireplace is another highlight. Sliding glass doors provide access to the freshly painted back deck, where mountain views abound. New carpet covers the stairs leading to the upper level with a second full bathroom, and two bedrooms. Recessed lights are in the bedrooms, and brand new hardwood floors exist upstairs, and throughout much of the main level. There is also a large storage area upstairs, and the hallway loft provides a fantastic view of the living room. There's also an unfinished basement. This home was originally designed for an artist who did many of the stained glass windows at the National Cathedral in Washington D.C. The lot is primarily wooded and slopes toward the North Fork Catoctin Creek. About two to three acres of the land include the house, an inground pool, and a garage with a loft serving as an outbuilding on the property. Opportunities exist to get creative with this portion, potentially building out a garden or guest house. This picturesque 20-acre site is located just off the intersection of Charles Town Pike and Berlin Turnpike, north of Leesburg and Purcellville, and outside of historic Waterford. The area is a scenic getaway, especially for wine and brewery enthusiasts and those desiring a stay at a local bed & breakfast. Catch the Metro train at Moorfield Station (20 miles) which goes into Washington D.C. or take a flight from Dulles Internationa Airport (25 miles).
