About the Listing CHRW1 - 3086016,79079
Live the slow life in 1780s Rappahannock County. Pass through a curtain of 100-year-old boxwoods and you’ll find Old Chestnut Cabin: a restored circa 1780 two bedroom, two bathroom farmhouse on 25 +/- private acres, where the pace is set by songbirds and the creek. Start your morning with coffee on the screened porch, then rinse off in the outdoor shower. Inside, hand-hewn beams, wide-plank floors and a deep stone hearth keep the farmhouse’s history close, while soapstone counters and a modern kitchen make the days easy. The living room centers on a deep stone hearth with a painted mantel, flanked by tall windows that fill the room with light. The updated kitchen balances old and new, pairing soapstone counters, shaker-style cabinetry, a deep stone hearth, and modern appliances with the same log walls and beamed ceiling found throughout the home. Also on the main level, you’ll find a den, perfect for reading your evening book, alternatively, this could also be used as a third bedroom. The main level bathroom has an adorable claw-foot tub and a view of the rear lawn. Upstairs, two well-sized bedrooms share a sweet landing and a unique ‘wet room’ full bathroom. The grand rear lawn, shaded by stately mature trees, including black walnuts, is made for lawn games, long afternoons and barefoot summer evenings. Fire up the grill on the deck off the kitchen and feed a crowd, then carry the party down to the flagstone patio, framed by a hand-laid stone wall, where good company can stretch well into the night. When the last guest heads home, the midnight sky is all yours. Then lose an afternoon in the woods. Follow the trails, trace the gentle creek and listen for native songbirds as meadow gives way to mature woodland, all across 25 acres that are entirely yours. Come home to the outdoor shower, or sink into the claw-foot tub with a view of the lawn. Castleton Festival is minutes away, Sperryville and Little Washington offer farm-to-table dining, galleries, wineries and breweries, and D.C. is just under 90 minutes east.
