Land:  The rolling hills of High Hill Lane offer both fields and forested areas and complete privacy. Currently grazed by cattle, the pasture (approximately 7 acres) is mostly orchard grass, and is ideally suited for livestock grazing, vineyard, or tree nursery.  

Walking and riding trails wind throughout the property and are linked to neighboring tracts as well.  A small stream on the northeastern border meanders along an old stone wall in an idyllic woodland setting. 

Location:  High Hill Lane is located on a quiet country lane at Massie's Corner outside the Town of Washington and near the village of Flint Hill in Rappahannock County.   The property lies in the Old Dominion Hounds foxhunting territory.  Approximately 70 miles from Washington, DC,  the travel time from to downtown DC is 1 Hour and 15 minutes (in low traffic situations).  Approximately 60 minutes to Dulles International Airport, 1 hour 15 minutes to Charlottesville,  20 minutes to Warrenton, and 15 minutes to Front Royal.

Amenities:   Rappahannock County is a close-knit rural community with excellent theater, concerts, art galleries, wineries, and the Shenandoah National Park.   “Little” Washington, the county seat is the home of The Inn at Little Washington and shops and theater. The nearby village of Flint Hill boasts three excellent restaurants, Four and Twenty Blackbirds, The Public House, and The Griffin Tavern.  Sperryville, also nearby, is home to the Thornton River Grille and other establishments.  Equestrian activities (fox-hunting, trail riding, dressage) are very popular local pursuits.
