About This Home

As of September 2025

Perched on a peaceful hillside, this inviting retreat offers stunning year-round views of the New River and the surrounding Blue Ridge Mountains. Whether you're seeking a weekend getaway or a forever home, this property delivers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Step inside to find warm wood interiors, a stone fireplace, and large windows that bring the outdoors in. The open-concept living and dining area flows effortlessly into a fully equipped kitchen, making it great for entertaining or relaxing with family. Step out onto the spacious deck to enjoy your morning coffee or evening wine while taking in the soothing sights and sounds of the river below. Located just minutes from downtown West Jefferson’s shops, restaurants, and art galleries—yet surrounded by quiet forest and flowing water—this property offers the best of both worlds.
