Supplements
outside to enjoy the screened-in porch to soak in extraordinary mountain views by the gas fire table or from the hot tub. Steps away is a 9-ft deep in-ground pool surrounded by additional stonework, a shady gazebo, and an expansive deck built with substantial steel beams on concrete piers - all sited on a ridgetop to create a feeling of floating amongst the trees. The bi-level deck also offers an established koi pond with fountain, grilling and outdoor dining area, and nearby gardening space.
The west wing houses the primary suite with large bedroom and sitting area, wood burning fireplace, two walk-in closets and a recently updated bathroom featuring a clawfoot tub and steam shower. This wing also includes the laundry room and attached garage that offers workspace and additional storage. The expansive attic above the wing offers storage and potential for a hidden nook for finished space. The east wing houses two more private bedroom suites, each with its own full bath and walk-in closet. One of them, lovingly called the "view room" has swoon-worthy views into the Upper Craigs Creek Valley - a true gift to any guest.
Designed for comfort and resiliency, the entire home is sheltered with a standing seam metal roof and features recently serviced whole-house generator, 1,500 gallons of propane storage, and a whole-house wood furnace that can be used to heat the house and pool, if desired. A fenced raised bed garden is within sight of the back door.
Venture down to the ''party barn'' for additional workspace, storage & entertainment options - is it time for that golf simulator you've always dreamt of? The solid barn has steel beam framing, metal roof, water, and electricity from a buried feeder line, and offers a long alley and three workrooms or stalls on the ground floor, and a full loft above. Two equipment sheds are attached for outdoor toys and tools, along with a chicken coop. The barn sits within a 1-acre fenced pasture lot.
Natural and outdoor features include approximately 1,100 feet of a year-round stream named Muddy Branch - that is actually a clear mountain stream - forest walking trails, 18-hole disc golf practice course that sprawls throughout the forest, a back yard shooting range, and a savannah-like area filled with mountain laurel. Hike just off the property through the national forest to follow forest roads to a scenic waterfall and continue to the Appalachian Trail, or begin an AT trek from the closest parking lot access only 3 miles away.
Hemlock Ridge Haven offers unparalleled privacy buffered from future development. The property is protected by conservation easement and bounded by only three neighbors - the 720,000-acre Jefferson National Forest, an adjacent 100-acre conservation easement that can never be divided, and a rural private parcel with a short boundary beneath a steep incline, all offering a buffer of tranquil seclusion. Surveyed boundary is freshly marked with flagged corners. This is a rare opportunity to secure a hidden estate with outstanding long-range mountain views and complete privacy, only 30 minutes to downtown Blacksburg and Virginia Tech.
