Grounds
The approximately 1/3 acre lot has several garden areas and a garden shed and spring house. A generous backyard sweeps down to the picturesque Thornton River. The property frontage on the river is very private and approximately 129 feet in length. Although sited directly on Main Street in Sperryville, the lawns and garden area between the house and the river are a wonderfully private and peaceful retreat.
