Mountain Song Cottage, located at the base of iconic House Mountain just 15 minutes from Lexington, VA, is a sophisticated, finely crafted retreat. Situated on a private 2.67-acre knoll shaded by mature hardwoods, the home was designed by noted local architect Hans Schweizer, a devotee of Frank Lloyd Wright. The main level includes a Great Room and spacious master suite; and is detailed with elegant features: a soaring cathedral ceiling, abundant windows, handmade lantern fixtures, a custom brick fireplace, mahogany trim, a balcony-like deck, and a gorgeous staircase leading to the lower level. Downstairs is a family room with French doors opening to a sunny deck, a 2nd bedroom and full bath, laundry and utility rooms, and more. Numerous updates since 2018; vacation rental potential too!
Since acquiring the property in 2018, the owners have made numerous improvements and upgrades to the cottage and the property. 2 detached "guest houses," each approximately 8' x 12', are fully insulated and finished with sheetrock walls and ceilings, tile floors, and electricity. Ceiling fans, lighting, and air conditioning keep things comfortable. One of the outbuildings is currently a sewing studio, the other a "bunk room;" both are eminently adaptable for a range of uses -- bring your imagination! A 3rd outbuilding, downslope from the cottage, serves as a garden shed. A greenhouse for nurturing herbs, vegetables, and other plants, was added just off the rear deck. Within the home, the owners have completely repainted the interior; refinished the hardwood flooring; upgraded the ceiling fans; restored and rewired the original lantern light fixtures; installed new stainless steel kitchen appliances, countertops, and plumbing fixtures; installed new bathroom vanities, lighting, and storage cabinets; installed new tile floors in several lower-level rooms; installed a Murphy bed in the 2nd bedroom; obtained high-speed internet service; and added numerous security and "smart home" features. Originally relying on a cistern for home water, the owners have installed a well, water softener, and reverse osmosis filtration system. The cistern remains in place and can still be used to capture rainwater for the landscape. When originally constructed by the Schweizer family, the home w
