Situated among hundreds of boxwoods, formals gardens, and its famous Rock Garden, the well-maintained residence occupies the pinnacle hilltop setting and consists of 2,138 SF, 3 bedrooms, and 2.5 baths including large formal living room with gorgeous moldings, fireplace, archways, and 10' coffered ceiling; master suite with tile bath and double vanity; sunroom with inspiring morning sunshine; cozy family room with coffered ceiling and wood stove; and quality architectural features like hardwood floors and solid paneled doors with hammered brass hardware.

A tranquil path leads to the one-acre Rock Garden, begun over 45 years ago and featured on the Virginia Historic Garden Tours in 1995, consisting of huge and unusual limestone rock formations that make natural birdbaths, over 600 American and upright boxwoods with lined gravel serpentine pathways winding through rocks and trees, thousands of daffodils that display their Spring beauty, and vibrant moss, sedums, ferns, and over 100 varieties of wildflowers set among ancient oaks. An assortment of statuary, benches, and pottery bird houses evoke a parklike feeling and invite birds, chipmunks, deer, turkeys, and foxes alike. Additional valuable elements include a paved circle drive with two-car detached garage, additional storage buildings including garden shed and small barn, long road-frontage on two state-maintained roads, back-up generator, natural gas, and city water.
