🌻Perfect Location! Walk to Caverns! Fire Pit, Porch & NEW summer HOT TUB & DECK!

This 20th century home, nestled in the Shenandoah Mountains, is a perfect location to get away from the hustle and bustle and breathe some country air while enjoying the scenic views, sounds, sites and activities of the countryside. Everywhere you look- there’s a beautful view, but yet, you are a short walk from the biggest sites! With 4 bedrooms, this house sleeps seven adults comfortably, although three-four smaller kids can fit using the additional sleeping spaces described below. You’ll find a large remodeled kitchen, 2 brand new full baths, a back deck, a front porch, an upper level screened-in porch, tons of back yard space with numerous places to sit, chat and laugh while enjoying the country air. Your group will enjoy plenty of space to be together, or to take some time apart. 2 Double beds, 1 Queen, 1 Twin. Additionally, there is 1 Twin trundle pull out bed, a Haitian Sleigh bed (not quite twin size) that can be used as a place to sleep, or as a sitting area, and 2 blow up twin mattresses, if you need them.
Luray is well known for the Luray Caverns and the Singing Tower, and here you have them both within walking distance! Walk out of the door - and you are looking at the Singing Tower! Come out of the door and turn right, walk 5 minutes down the country road, and you will come across a pond where you can sit, fish, or stroll. Continue across the highway for another 5 minutes, and you will be at the entrance of the Luray Caverns, with it’s caves, stalagmites, stalactites and much more. Children and adults alike will enjoy the Caverns Car museum, gift shop, outdoor mountain climbing activities and Hedge Maze! Hop in the car, and drive 30 min to Harrisonburg, (McGaheysville), to Massanutten Ski Resort for tons of winter sports!

You have two porches to use, a screened in upper porch, a favorite for those who love the feeling of being outside, even a great place for little ones who want to « camp out », but with the safety of being in the house, and on the same level as three bedrooms. You also have a meet and greet porch, on the first level, with rocking chairs that encourage you to sit and relax. No matter which porch you choose, this house gives you PRIVATE SEATING, to each and every Singing Tower Live Performance! No need to drive, park, or even walk, just enjoy from your own porches! (Performances run on the weekend!) The Deck and screened in porches have comfy seating, (chaise lounge, L shaped couch, love seat, wrought iron rocking chairs, Cracker Barrel Rocking Chairs, etc). On the deck, you’ll find a tin wine rack, ice bucket and serving tray, allowing you to sip while you enjoy the country air! Warm lights are strewn across the spacious backyard, which has numerous places for eating, sitting, playing, enjoying the fire pit and more. In the yard, you’ll find a weather ready Wooden Corn Toss Set, or feel free to hop on one the bikes and take a country ride!
The kitchen is filled with all you need to feed a family or your group of friends. The cupboards are stocked to include blenders, pots, pans, casserole dishes, serving trays, pitchers, wine glasses, roasting pots, baking pans, skillets and more. A Keurig Coffee maker, and a standard coffee maker (for purists☺️), are both available to suit your needs. The kitchen was remodeled in 2023 and now includes a garbage disposal, dishwasher, and microwave with a spacious country kitchen table with plenty of seating. The refrigerator and stove are also brand new! The kitchen expands through the archway where you will find more new appliances, and extra large load Washer and Dryer, and shelves full of games, books, toys and videos to pop in the DVD players!

Take 20 steps from the front door, and you will find that you are approaching what is known as the « Cave Field », referred to lovingly by us locals as the « Cay Field ». This is the area that surrounds the Singing Tower with 1700 era bricks/stones. The children and adults alike in our family, have spent many days walking and skipping along the stones that surround that field, so enjoy! You’ll notice that people meet up for lunch, or just come to sit in their cars for a spell, taking in the beauty and serenity of the Cay field.

If you come out of the house and turn left, you’ll hit Main Street. Within a 5-10 min leisurely stroll, you will encounter an open air Brewery, and in another 15 minutes, you will be in the heart of downtown Luray with its shops, wine bars, boutiques, eateries, art houses, coffee shops, ice cream spots and even a VERY SMALL movie theatre. Luray has seasonal festivals, so check the listings to see if you might arrive in time to enjoy one. The walk downtown might take 20- 30 minutes, or just drive and park along the street.

One of our favorite places to walk is around the Greenway. Grab a coffee and take a free walk along the River. Take in the nature and wildlife, and maybe the sunrise or the sunset. There are often live performances around this area during the summer, and fall, so be prepared to be entertained!

Looking for something a little more adventurous? Great! In summer or spring, take a tube, kayak or canoe down the river! There are 2-3 spots in town that offer river activities such as tube trips, fishing trips, canoe trips and more! The sign ups are pretty simple, they give you a time, a life jacket and off you go!

If your adventurous side is more focused on land, then there are horses to ride, and ATV trips through the mountains that offer beautiful, unspoiled views, mixed with a little adventure. Not to mention the GOLF! The views alone make golfing in this area a treat for all who love the sport, or just love riding around in the carts. (If you do this, you should plan in advance, as they book up quickly!)

If tasting and visiting wine or beer houses is your thing, you have much to choose from in this area. Each winery or brewery offers it’s own type of experience, setting and decor. Just choose what suits you and your group!

Now, for the bedrooms and the bathrooms. The first floor contains a master bedroom with a double bed, dresser and armoir, Smart Roku TV and a Haitian Sleigh Bed that could be used as a bed(smaller a twin size). This suite comes with a private master bath with walk in shower. Also on this floor is the living room with xfinity TV, the second full bath (walk in shower), the eat in kitchen, the reading nook, the laundry area and the backyard deck with love seat and chairs.

Up the staircase, you will find three bedrooms and the screened-in porch.

The first bedroom you will encounter is the smallest, with a twin bed, dresser, Smart Roku TV, nightstand and window seat. Although the smallest, this bedroom has a lovely view. The next bedroom has a double bed, dresser, Smart Roku TV and window looking onto the screened in porch and Cave field. The third bedroom is the largest, with a double bed, nightstand, work place with printer, with a pull out trundle bed, armoire, and XFinty TV with Roku Smart TV. Off the hallway between bedroom one and two, is a door that leads to the upstairs, screened-in porch with a sectional patio couch and a Chaise Lounge. Although this is NOT a bedroom, our family has always had members that loved grabbing a sleeping bag and sleeping on the porch. It was the first we knew of « glamping »! We could see the stars, hear the country sounds of the night, but not worry about wild animals or insect bites! (Again- we keep a few blow up mattresses in the closet, just in case you decide to try it.☺️)

Head out of the back of the house, to the spacious back yard with tons of room for kids to run, enjoy a SOLO STOVE 🔥to use as a grill or a fire pit, enjoy the corn toss and volleyball net, enjoy meals outside, or just relax. The backyard has lots of seating, -2 dining tables with chairs and one umbrella for easy Al Fresco dining, and taking in the beauty of the Shenandoah Valley! This country house awaits you, and we welcome you! COME, ENJOY, RELAX! ☃️

Luray house
Cute house. Amazing location! Lots of outdoor seating, shade, firepit, sheep that like to be petted. Super close to Luray attractions but seperate road so not busy. Had an issue in the beginning, messaged seller, they responded immediately. Good communication, very helpful. Kitchen had everything we needed. Awesome charging station in laundry room. Air mattress for extra sleeping space beyond what was advertised.
