Description
The Stonestreet House is a charming historic home named after previous owners. Dating back to the 1840’s, the house sits within walking distance to all the amenities on offer in Little Washington, while at the same time creating a sense of privacy through centuries old boxwoods lining the property perimeter and an expansive lawn with a view to the neighboring pastures and Blue Ridge Mountains. In short, a fantastic place to enjoy a historic home in a wonderful small town setting.
Residence
The 1840s house has been updated during the 20th and 21st centuries. Currently the original clapboard is covered with aluminium siding. The roof is a solid standing seam metal roof. Interiors have been sensitively updated to include modern conveniences like geothermal heating and cooling, while retaining the historic charm of the rooms and house layout. The house is very well maintained and move-in ready!
Grounds
The generous 1.89 acre lot provides a lovely front lawn facing the street, with a parking area to the right of the house. Mature trees and plantings flank the house on all sides. On the sides of the house are ancient boxwoods that create a series of rooms that afford privacy from neighbors. A hot tub and grill area are found on the western side of the house, while on the eastern side are various outbuildings ranging from an old out house to a sizable barn. The back lawn is expansive and the perfect place for a garden party or croquet tournament. Framed by a board fence, the back lawn abuts a large pasture that frames views of the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background.
