About This Home

As of October 2021

This spectacular home includes three separate lots (totaling 2.43 secluded acres) adjacent to Shenandoah National Park and Skyline Drive. One lot connects through scenic forest paths along a wet weather stream to the Park's Dickey Ridge Trail. Located in BELMONT, one of the most sought-after areas in all of Warren County, this showplace was built as a retirement home by the original Belmont developer, Mr. Meriwether. Pull into the lovely driveway and you’ll understand why these prime lots were retained by the developer as the most spectacular setting in the entire breathtaking neighborhood. Main level living is possible with two main level bedrooms (one being used as an enormous storage area that could also allow future kitchen or bath expansion), main level laundry hookups and level entries through both the kitchen or the amazing sunroom. Additional bedrooms could be created in the spacious upper loft and the basement could be finished for added square footage. INTERIOR FEATURES: Bright sunroom (16x13 with adjacent 11x7 “mudroom”), Hardwood floors throughout, Enormous upper vaulted loft perfect for a home office (22x13), Brick wood-burning fireplace in living room, Formal dining room area, Wood stove that heats the core of home throughout the winter, Updated bathrooms, Main level master bedroom (with his/her closets and window seat), Basement utility sink, Upgraded 200 amp electrical panel, Upgraded hot water heater, Updated Trane heat pump system, Impressive closet/storage space, Pocket doors, Expansive windows, French doors
EXTERIOR FEATURES: Two car garage (24x22 w/ workbench), Private rear brick patio (with tiered landscaping and a brick walkway to forest paths), Garden shed (100 sq ft with electric), Newer roof (approximately 12 years old), Paved driveway
BONUS FEATURES: Breathtaking forest views from every single window, Located less than 5 minutes from Skyline Drive main entrance, Shenandoah River access (at Eastham Park), Samuels Public Library, Historic Downtown Front Royal, Skyline Caverns, hiking trails, biking/walking trails (Royal Greenway), shopping and more. Property may have timber income potential with its unique and large forest that includes an exceptionally large Osage orange, white/red oak, black walnut & poplar trees. A canopy of paradise-like scenery includes rock outcroppings, trails, a meandering wet weather creek/stream, plentiful wildlife (including a rare songbird habitat, migratory birds, raspberries and mature landscaping).
POINTS TO NOTE: Sellers would consider rent back or can move in 30 days, Sellers have indicated that basement is dry, Note the winter views off the upper bedroom/bathroom (an area that could be expanded to create a spectacular owner’s suite),SELLERS WILL CONSIDER PAYING CLOSING COSTS! Don’t miss your chance to be the 3rd owners of this builder’s custom paradise!
