About This Home
As of December 2020Turn onto Gimlet Ridge Road and follow it all the way to the end where you will find this beautiful Custom Log Home on 20 acres that joins Shenandoah National Park. Cape Cod Style in the front with Chalet Style in the back. Large wrap around porches and decks. Front Porch is covered and complete with a top of the line porch swing where you can relax and enjoy the serenity of country life. The front porch floor is made from lumber that was milled from trees on the property. The deck continues around to the right side of the house and leads to the large back deck. It then continues around the other side of the house to a large covered porch that is also accessed by the Primary Bedroom. A perfect place to sit and sip coffee in the mornings or cold beverages later in the day. Wildlife abounds as the property is wooded and shares a boundary with Shenandoah National Park. 20 acres adjacent to 196,000 acres of National Park. What could be better! Walk inside the front door to a great Open Floor Plan. Log walls are 8" Swedish Cope solid pine with beautiful beams and a soaring ceiling in Great Room. Great Room features beautiful stone woodburning fireplace with rustic mantel, floor to ceiling stone, and a custom barnboard and iron mountain scene. Hardwood floors in Great Room and Dining Room. Main Level also features a cooks delight with rustic cherry cabinets, tile counters, new refrigerator, new range (delivery Oct 20) and island with eating bar on the backside. Dining area is adjacent to the kitchen and great room. There is a 1/2 bath just off the main entry and then to the left is the Primary Bedroom with walk-in closet, doors to the covered porch and primary bath. Primary Bath has cherry vanity with single sink, linen closet, roll in shower that is recessed into floor (no curb) and toilet room. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms each with a walk-in closet and vaulted ceiling. Second level also has a full bath. There is a small loft area with desk. Basement level is ready for you to decide if and when to finish. Front area in basement has log siding on walls but otherwise waiting to be finished. The basement is rough plumbed for a full future bath and also pre-plumbed for either a small kitchen or wet bar. This basement could easily be finished as living quarters or just a great additional rec room, bar and bath. French Doors lead out under the deck. The deck above has rain shield installed underneath so area under deck remains dry. Large rock under deck area makes for a unique conversation piece when planning an outdoor living space. Also in the basement is a large woodburning fireplace with woodbox, just waiting for you to create a facade of your choice. Currently there is a woodstove connected and a brand new stainless steel lifetime warranty chimney pipe installed. Seller used the woodstove to help in the winter with heating costs and there is an endless supply of firewood on this property. The exterior of this home was stained/sealed in 2020. There is a small Koi Pond on the front side yard with a small walkway and deck. The property is also surrounded with invisible fence for your dogs. Just need to get a collar. This property sits between the villages of Browntown and Bentonville which are quaint and friendly and very scenic. The southern end of Warren County is very scenic with the Shenandoah National Park, Shenandoah River and Shenandoah River State Park, and the George Washington National Forest. Bentonville is also situated between Front Royal and Luray and both towns offer great main street shops, dining, wineries, and breweries as well as multiple vegetable/fruit stands. Don't let this one pass you by! Schedule a showing today! Professional Photos will be posted as soon as they are done! Call with questions.
