About This Home
Welcome home to 1246 Whispering Hill Road, situated just outside charming Luray, Virginia. This expansive property boasts nearly 56 acres of pristine farmland with sweeping panoramic views of the Shenandoah National Park, Massanutten Mountain range, and picturesque Page Valley. The property is improved by a luxurious barndominium built in 2021; ideal for use as a cozy residence or as the perfect starting point for expanding your dream farmette. The barndominium boasts three garage bays with a concrete floor on the lower level and a stunning one bedroom, one bathroom living area above, complete with a deck and views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from every angle. Surrounding the barndominium the nearly level acreage is fully fenced / cross fenced and has extensive frontage on the cool waters of Pass Run before it flows into the nearby Shenandoah River! The expansive divided pastures are perfect for grazing horses, cattle, and other livestock, with each separate pasture equipped with automatic waterers. This picturesque setting is further enhanced by two ponds (one of which is spring-fed, a rare find) for all your recreational and agricultural endeavors. In addition, the property boasts a historic, hand-dug well protected by a charming stone house dating back to the 1800s. If it is an investment property you have been searching for, you need to look no further, as the opulent barndominium can be used as a short-term vacation rental (STR) without the need for a special use permit and additional dwellings / rentals can be constructed on the property. The entire property has recently been surveyed and one by right division is available under the current zoning code. Additionally, there is no HOA and significant frontage on two truly authentic country roads provides multiple access points onto the property. The property is enrolled in the land use real estate tax reduction program which keeps annual real estate taxes extremely low and the property can easily be maintained in the land use program post-closing. A short drive will take you to wonderful downtown Luray, the Shenandoah River, George Washington National Forest, Luray Caverns, and Shenandoah National Park. Nearby wineries, breweries, distilleries, hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and authentic country stores add to the never-ending charm. Opportunities like this one to own a barndominium on nearly 56 acres of pristine farmland do not come on the market often. Do not miss out!
