Description
The first thing you will notice as you explore the area around Orlean, Virginia is the surrounding scenery. Incredible landscapes that are so beautiful, it is sometimes surreal. Country lanes wind through sprawling horse farms and estates, past local vineyards, under forest canopies and over streams. And always in the distance is the Blue Ridge, an ever-present backdrop for this very special part of Fauquier County. Nothing says home sweet home quite like a vintage cottage, and 6410 John Barton Payne Road is the quintessential American cottage. Dont let the humble exterior fool you, however. Inside, a soothing palette and rich woods combine with up-market details, creating a warm and inviting home! The house is tucked into the landscape among tall shade trees for perfect privacy, with long views of surrounding farms.The floor plan is relaxed and intimate in scale, and an abundance of windows allows a constant connection with the surrounding nature. The kitchen is certainly the heart of this home, where meal preparation is always a breeze. An abundance of attractive cabinetry and expansive counter tops provide an ideal work space for the family chef. An adjacent breakfast room, dining room and family room are all within view of the kitchen, creating an excellent space to gather with dear friends. With horses grazing in the distance and birdsong in the background, the front porch offers a beautiful place for a cocktail in the evening, or morning coffee at sunrise.The main level also features a second bedroom, currently used as a guest room, and an upscale bathroom with walk-in shower. There is also a mudroom with laundry & mop sink.Upstairs, the owners suite encompasses the entire upper level, and includes a cozy sitting area, walk-in closet and storage cabinetry. The en-suite bathroom was upgraded to include a romantic claw foot tub. The property includes a manageable 1.8 acres, and a nice combination of tidy lawn, mature trees for shade and privacy and attractive garden beds. The circular driveway provides ample parking and easy access to the road. The location is wonderful. Within a few minutes drive, you can access the Rappahannock River at the countys newest park, Riverside Preserve; or head to the Orlean Market to pick up a sandwich, chat with neighbors and even listen to live music on weekends.
