About This Home
Farmette on 2 Unrestricted Acres in Warren County, VA
Tucked away in the rolling hills of Warren County this enchanting 2-acre farmette is a rare blend of charm and possibility. At the heart of the property sits a 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath farmhouse where rustic charm meets thoughtful updates. The newly renovated kitchen is a bright and welcoming space—perfect for preparing fresh harvests from your future garden or baking bread on quiet Sunday mornings. Large windows let in golden light, while original details throughout the home whisper of a simpler time.
Step outside into your own private haven—2 unrestricted acres of open pasture and shade trees, ideal for homesteading dreams. Raise chickens, keep bees, plant an orchard, or build raised beds for heirloom vegetables—the land is ready to support your vision of sustainable living, while soaking in mountain and river views! A detached two-bay garage adds even more value, with a full upper level ready to become a guest apartment, artist’s loft, or income-producing rental. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape, a family homestead, or an investment in rural living, this property offers endless potential. Not to mention you are just minutes away from downtown Front Royal. Making restaurants, shopping, groceries and even I66 commutes convenient.
Peace, perspective, and a daily reminder of nature’s beauty could be yours!
