Description

A home with charisma! At its heart a mid 19th c. cabin, 3794 Old Roberts Mountain Road evolved to become a classic in country living and only 25 min. to Charlottesville. Architect James Pandula of Smith, Blackburn and Stauffer of Georgetown designed the additions. The original cabin endures as exposed post and beam construction in the living room. The current owners expanded outdoor living spaces, enhanced the gardens, paved the driveway and managed water runoff. A Kynar metal roof and Gutter Shutter system date from 2016. Built-in bookcases, varied ceiling heights, cook's kitchen, and pocket doors are a few of the fine features. Outside living spaces include covered front, side and rear porches, patios and a 2021 cedar gazebo with a HotSprings Luxury saltwater spa, all connected by brick and stone pathways and magical perennial gardens. A splendid stone wall divides parking and forest. The 16 acres invite exploration of a mountain stream and remnants of historic homesteads. Not to be missed is the classic 38 x 50 red barn (with electricity) containing some 6, 000 sq ft on two levels. Alongside the barn is an antique log building that awaits restoration. Fiber internet, no HOA and zoned A-1. Note that the septic is designed for 2 bedrooms.
