A modern day hilltop castle complete with twin turrets holds a commanding location between Lexington and Buena Vista with views of the Blue Ridge Parkway and National Forest before it and access to the Maury River below. Originally constructed as a contractor's private residence, this home with extra- thick poured concrete foundation walls was built to last as evidenced by supreme craftsmanship throughout. Elegance melds with practicality to allow the owner to live self- sufficiently with no sacrifice of comfort. The home is positioned to take advantage of light and the oversized windows, specifically coated to prevent sun damage to the furnishings and gorgeous hickory floors, provide solar benefit as well as frame incredible views.

A beautiful ground level apartment is equally luxurious and provides opportunity for a multi- generational living arrangement, separate access for guests or tenants, or simply an outstanding space for the ultimate recreational room complete with full sized kitchen, living room with fireplace, office with built- in custom bookcases, second primary suite and covered patio. Even the utility systems serving the house are of the utmost quality and design. The well supplies an abundance of water, filtered in house with good pressure and is backed up by a 250 gallon indoor storage tank. A whole house generator turns on automatically in case of a power outage and keeps all systems fully operational. A 1,000 gallon propane tank (privately owned) powers the gas range in the main kitchen as well as the living room fireplace on the first level and the second living room/ den on the ground floor for plenty of heat regardless of weather conditions. Raised plant beds with a ready outdoor water supply make gardening even more enjoyable and a greenhouse with sensor- controlled ventilation provides fruit and vegetables year round. The grounds hold numerous walnut and fruit trees and the hillside is ripe for future plantings of berries and grape vines. A detached workshop allows for woodcrafts and other projects while keeping the ensuing dust from the residence. The scenery is beautiful in each season with colorful foliage everywhere and the sun and the moon cast divine light throughout th
