Enjoy the long-range view from the front porch before crossing the threshold into the light-filled entry foyer with its original wood staircase, chair rail molding and custom doorway valances. Head left into the spacious living room, which features one of seven fireplaces complete with a wood-burning stove insert. Picture molding, plush carpeting, and custom shades (one that is motorized) are highlights of this space. The adjacent dining room has a fireplace with a stone hearth and a built-in china cabinet, crown molding and chair rail. The Kitchen may be found off the Dining Room through a small hallway, which has built-in cupboards. The Kitchen has wood cabinetry, a large, tile-topped island, a fireplace, double-bowl porcelain sink, updated appliances, and a pantry. Just off the kitchen is the laundry room, with built-in shelves for additional pantry storage. The Sun Room, just off the Kitchen, was a porch that was enclosed in 1998. This room features tile flooring, crown molding, a whitewashed wood ceiling, custom built-in cabinetry and access to the driveway and deck/screened-in porch. Back through the kitchen and into the Den, which was an addition some years ago. The lapped siding walls and an original window, which provides a glimpse into the dining room and allows for "borrowed" light from this space, are a testament to a time in the past when it was the outside of the house. Now, this cozy space is one in which to curl up with a good book in front of the wood stove and gaze out of the glass doors to the side stone terrace and beyond. Just off this room, and with easy access to the Kitchen, is what is now a great utility/storage space but was the springhouse (replete with the old water trough) in a previous life. Just through the Den (and back to the Foyer entry) is a full bathroom with a jetted tub and a wood vanity cabinet. The last stop on the main level may be found off the entry Foyer. Step into the cheery game room with wood floors, a fireplace with wood stove, built-in corner cabinet, and picture rail. Head up the stairs to the second floor while enjoying the feel of the banister's smooth, aged wood surface beneath your hand. The upstairs landing is bright and has an amazing view from the eastern-facing window. From here, head left into the large Master Bedroom with adjacent bathroom and walk-in closet or right to an equally large bedroom with a closet. Both bedrooms have large windows, fireplaces, chair rail and crown molding. Two other ample-sized bedrooms (one with a fireplace) are on this level and may be accessed by either going through the one bedroom or by using the "secret" stair that connects the two back bedrooms. The bathroom on this level that is connected to the Master Bedroom, also connects to the middle bedroom. Although leaving this gorgeous home is hard to do, there are so many things to do outside! The deck (prepped for a hot tub), the firepit area and the screened-in porch are perfect places to sit and relax and watch the wild life...deer and turkey abound! The two-car garage is also home to a workshop with its own separate entry. The garage features electric and attic storage. In the summer, the raised-bed growing box on the end of the garage is the perfect place to grow vine-ripened tomatoes. Not far from the garage is a huge 24' x 45' Quonset metal building with electric, electric garage door opener and a concrete floor. Directly adjacent to this building is a 20' x 16' equipment storage building, perfect for a 4-wheeler and lawn mower. Two hunting blinds (one featuring "Sasquatch") and a shooting shack (for target practice) are also located on the property. The 7-acre fenced pasture, the barn and the spring-fed pond are all directly across from the house and are perfect for horses or other four-legged friends. Additionally, this property has several access points to the Higginbotham Cave system and 2.6 acres of amazing cave to explore! And...this property is the site of the first grist mill west of the Alleghany Mountains!
