The Hideaway on the Hill is the perfect launching point for your weekend adventures. Perched above the village of Sperryville, this sturdy brick three-bedroom two-bath home combines low maintenance with a great location on a 0.76 acre parcel. Walk two-tenths of a mile to the village of Sperryville for galleries, restaurants, shops and the post office. Head in the other direction, and walk or bike along Woodward Road, a quiet gravel road which stretches for five miles with gorgeous views and lovely woods.
Originally built in 1970, the home has been lovingly remodeled to fit today’s lifestyle. Contemporary and traditional styles have been melded in perfect harmony. There is an open floor plan with beautiful oak hardwood floors and many large windows, making the home feel open, bright and inviting. The home features a spacious finished basement with a wood-burning fireplace, full bath, kitchen and a separate entrance. In the past this has been a great place for overflow company and has also been used as a rental.
