Have you been searching for an impeccably restored Shenandoah Valley farmhouse with mountain views? If so, you need to consider the Miller-Knick House, located just 15 minutes from historic Lexington, VA. Situated on 11.88 acres along the spring-fed headwaters of Kerr's Creek, the property qualifies for designation on state and national historic registers; the National Trust for Historic Preservation has featured the home's meticulous restoration in Preservation Magazine. The architecturally significant 2-story brick dwelling has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, period-appropriate finishes, restored original woodwork, a custom cherry kitchen with soapstone counters, and modern systems. A collection of updated 19th and 20th century outbuildings lend charm and utility, as do lovely garden spaces.

The property's outbuildings attest to the agricultural productivity of the farm over the years. Immediately behind the house is a 2-level meat house/springhouse, which includes workspaces downstairs, with storage and an office/studio space upstairs. The larger room on the 1st level includes a spring-fed cast-concrete trough, originally used to keep dairy products cool; and a cast-iron wood stove. A unique door between the 2 upper rooms is crafted from a salvaged s
