SOLD!

One on the few Rappahannock properties that truly has it all - privacy, landscaped open space, exquisite gardens, rolling woodlands, burbling streams, dramatic river frontage, outstanding mountain views, and easy access to both Little Washington (4 miles away) and "big" Washington (70 miles away).   An ideal weekend getaway, or the ultimate in a quiet retirement retreat,  246 Grandview also provides wonderful indoor living space for quiet reflection or casual entertaining.

Property: The ten acre parcel is near the end of a quiet country road outside Little Washington.   Approximately 2 acres are cleared for the house, lawn, and extensive gardens.  Gardens include deer fencing, trellises and arbors, and are planted in a series of borders and raised beds.  A woodland trail meanders down the hillside along a streambed until it reaches the Covington River.  Frontage on the Covington includes the remains of old stone walls, a small 'beach' and dramatic granite outcroppings which create the perfect swimming hole on this pristine small river.
