250 Rag Hill Road is the ideal country retreat nestled high in the hills near Syria, Virginia. The elegantly rustic log home on 3 mostly wooded acres has outstanding mountain views, quiet solitude and perfect privacy. It is minutes from the Shenandoah National Park, excellent fly-fishing, endless hiking trails, orchards, wineries and delightful shops.
The home is an almost new two level log home built with split log construction so it is well-insulated and very energy efficient. It features a well-lit great room with kitchen, dining and living spaces under a soaring wood paneled ceiling. This large open space has tall windows that drink in the mountain views and it opens to a screened porch and large front deck that seem to be tucked in the tree tops. A wood burning fireplace adds warmth and ambience in cooler weather.
The kitchen has cherry cabinets, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. It is large enough to accommodate several energetic cooks working together.
In addition to the great room, the upper level includes a master suite with attached bathroom and walk-in closet, two other bedrooms and another full bath. The master bedroom has access to the broad front deck.
The lower level includes a comfortable den and office with another wood burning fireplace, a family room, a third full bath as well as utility room, laundry and storage. There is an entrance from the 2-car garage on this level.
The house has numerous amenities and features that increase its comfort and utility including a Rinnai insta-hot water system, 2-zone HVAC system, full house automatic generator, satellite TV and Internet and good cell phone service.
The house is surrounded with native landscaping and hardscape. There is little lawn to mow and the entire property is designed to be carefree, low maintenance and easy to enjoy.
