59 Riley Hollow Rd

A beautiful country road slips through the foothills and skirts the Blue Ridge of Rappahannock County as it leads to this graceful home with panoramic scenery and great privacy. A home of brilliant, environmentally responsible, technically innovative and aesthetically pleasing design. Waterfalls grace the walled front courtyard garden with koi pond, as well as the 57' rear stone terrace. Front entry doors hand carved in China..... All bedrooms are outstanding, but the primary is exceptional with fireplace, terrace doors and a delightfully designed bath with roll in shower, plus a quiet and private meditative side garden with outdoor shower accessed through either the bath or bedroom. Rooms throughout this unique home are well proportioned with 10' 6"-11' 6" ceilings and exceptional flow for both fresh air and entertaining family and friends. Two master suites on main, two bedrooms down. Fireplaces in living room and primary bedroom..... Laundry in the primary bedroom wing; hookups are also in the large tiled dog grooming/mud room off the garage. Invisible fencing and woven wire on the entire property are perfect for pets..... Lower level is 9' and finished with two comfortable bedrooms, handsome tiled bath and Italian marble 5' wide hall, plus over 2,000 sq ft of unfinished area plumbed for another bath and small kitchen or bar for your game room, exercise, surround sound TV, etc. An additional flue for gas or wood stove in this area also..... Surround sound system serves both inside and out. The Geothermal heat and air system is certain to please. Buried 1,000 gallon cistern captures roof rainwater for gardening, though the well is strong enough to supply a small army or fill a pool!..... A comfortable, private, country estate and 25 acre farm with a spring and stream, mixed orchard and beautiful views, perfect for your planting or farming dreams (or just relaxing) and only a short distance from Flint Hill on the outskirts of Old Dominion Hunt.
