Private, Peaceful, and One of a Kind: perched high on a hill in the highly sought-after Village of Round Hill, this 11+ acre retreat offers a rare blend of craftsmanship, creativity, and open meadowland. Built with timber-framed construction and exposed beams, the home has been lovingly maintained and enriched with distinctive accents crafted from repurposed wood harvested from the surrounding land.
Spanning four levels, the home is anchored by an extra-large, two-story living room with a gas fireplace and and flooded with natural light. The seller, an artist and sculptor, customized the fireplace surround and hearth, and that same eye for detail carries throughout, including kitchen cabinetry built by the owner. The main level flows beautifully with a kitchen and breakfast area that opens to a rear deck running the length of the home, plus a dining room, sitting room, half bath, and a practical mudroom entry. Antique double entry doors open to a covered front porch overlooking a fully fenced, flat grassy yard bordered by trees, a true oasis for relaxing and entertaining.
Upstairs, the primary suite captures sweeping views down the hill over the acreage and includes an ensuite bath. A mezzanine overlook opens to the living room below, and an impressive run of custom built-in bookcases and storage stretches along the home. A second bedroom and full bath complete this level. The top floor offers a large sitting area with two additional bedrooms, each brightened by dormer windows. The lower level adds flexibility with a partially finished basement featuring a full bath, abundant storage, and walkout access to a flagstone rear portico.
The outbuildings are a standout! The approximately 1,300 square foot artist’s studio features a dramatic vaulted, skylit roofline and soaring ceiling height that fills the space with natural light, plus built-in workbenches, a utility sink, oversized double doors, and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with wood stove. A wood-burning kiln sits just outside. Two additional large sheds, a double run-in shed, and a large tractor shed, offer serious utility for tractors, cars, and equipment, with a riding lawnmower that conveys. Even the hardware and hinges have character here, reflecting the artistry behind every structure. Additionally, a large utility shed with custom mahogany fish-scale shingles, electricity, workbenches, and tall ceilings rounds out the special feel and flexibility of this property. There is also a large, deep, oversized one-car garage. For added convenience, there is another complementary custom carport. To round out the property, there is a dedicated observatory shed with a specially designed roll-back roof, housing a telescope and lenses that convey.
This is a lifestyle property. Country charm meets everyday serenity here. Sip your coffee on the porch as deer and wild turkeys pass through the meadow, listen to the birds in the trees, and enjoy the quiet that comes with space, sky, and nature while soaking in the privacy of 11+ acres. When you want to get outside, you are about 10 minutes to the Shenandoah River, with easy access points for launching your kayak, plus nearby trails, wineries, and weekend adventures, all while still being roughly 20 minutes to Dulles International Airport. The property also includes access to a shared 1.5-acre stocked fishing pond. You truly have to see it in person to experience the detail, charm, and setting.
