Relax and enjoy your time secluded in nature on roughly four acres of land right down the road from Paul's Creek, many hiking trails, Wintergreen Resort, wineries, cideries and breweries (all within just a few minutes drive).
Nestled in the trees, the home has a cabin-like feel as soon as you arrive. It has been outfitted and fully-stocked to accommodate you whether you want a quiet writer's paradise among the chirping birds or for parties that want to have an extended family get-together.
The home has multiple places to hang out and entertain simultaneously including a large living room with a large screen TV, a screened-in deck (where we love to enjoy morning and evening beverages), two different decks outfitted with an outdoor Webber grill along with ample outdoor seating and swings, two kitchens, a playroom/game room outfitted with another large screen TV with more couches and lounger chairs on the main and lower levels.
Parking is available on-site for at least 4 vehicles and generally driving around Wintergreen is beautiful with ample parking at most venues year round.
