About this property

Tucked away from the noise of everyday life, this 22-acre property gives you the quiet of a private retreat while staying close to the shops, restaurants and amenities of Warrenton. The sellers fell in love the moment they turned into the driveway. You will understand why. The woods seem to go on forever, and a lake and two ponds, to come into view from nearly every room in the house. Picture your mornings here. You wake up to the view through the bay window in the primary suite, looking out over the water. You pour your coffee and carry it out to the screened porch while the sun comes up over the trees. No traffic. No neighbors' windows looking back at you. Just the woods, the water and the quiet. The sellers say sunrise on that porch is the best part of the day, and it's the thing they'll miss most. The ranch home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, more than 3.540 square feet on the main level and finished walkout lower level . The kitchen is the hub of the home, and it's placed to catch some of the best views on the property, so whoever is cooking never misses what's happening outside. It has a gas stove for real cooking and an electric oven. At the end of a long day, the spa tub in the primary bath comes with a view of its own. Most homes make you choose between a nice bath and a nice view. This one gives you both. Spring through fall, life moves outside. The new metal and composite deck and screened porch were added in 2025, built to hold up and to spend your time enjoying, not maintaining. Morning coffee, a book in the afternoon, dinner outdoors on a summer night, and the screens keep it comfortable when the bugs come out. When the leaves turn in the fall, the woods put on a show right from your deck. Winter has its own reward. The walkout basement has picture windows that frame the woods, and the sellers call it their favorite place to stay cozy and watch the snow come down. The outside wood furnace adds another way to heat the home, and it keeps the wood and the ash outdoors where they belong. Go beyond the deck and the land opens up. Wooded trails wind through the 22 acres for walks, exploring, and getting away without ever leaving home. Cast a line in the stocked pond. Follow the trails back into the trees to Hickory Lick Creek . The sellers describe it as a sense of privacy and adventure, and that's exactly what it feels like to walk it. Here is what most buyers don't think to ask about on a property with water: the work behind it. In 2023 the sellers rebuilt the main dam, and they cleared the woods to open up the view from the house. Those are big, expensive projects on any acreage property, and they're already done. There's room for every project, hobby and toy. An attached 2-car garage keeps everyday parking simple. The detached 30x40, 3-car garage has its own bathroom, so you can work on a project, come in off the trails, or host friends outside without tracking through the house. It's the kind of space people dream about and almost never find with a home like this. The property sits on a private road. The neighbors get together once a year to plan the upkeep of the road and talk through anything that comes up, so the road stays in good shape and you know who lives around you, while every home keeps its own privacy. The sellers summed up living here in three words: peaceful, relaxing, private. Their advice to the next owners is simple: take your time and really enjoy the property. Walk the trails, stand on the deck, look out from the bedroom window, and you'll see why they fell in love with it the day they arrived. A setting like this, this close to town, is hard to find.
