A great weekend home for either total relaxation or active recreation. Within steps of challenging hikes in the Shenandoah National Park or the sophisticated village of Washington, VA, this easily-maintained Cumberland designed home has everything you'd need for a relaxing weekend - great views, privacy, beautiful woodlands, and a small river too! The 25 acre property is a mostly wooded hillside with small lawns and gardens around the house. The Rush River meaders through the woods at the bottom of the parcel. Close to everything you'd want to make your weekends enjoyable, but private enough to really feel as though you've gotten away from it all.
