Description

From the moment you hit the secluded gravel driveway you know you're somewhere special. A magical retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, where the air feels clearer and you can feel your worries melt away with each breath. Named the TOP place to own a vacation/beach house, Lake Anna is an easy car ride from Northern VA/DC Metro area, Charlottesville and Richmond. When you think of a lake house, this is the house you're picturing; vaulted ceilings, great room with a fireplace and perched at the top of a meandering walkway down to the firepit and boathouse. A huge, screened porch like a treehouse nestled among the branches of mature oaks with wildlife and songbirds. Curl up with a blanket during thunderstorms or take an afternoon nap on the porch with warm breezes and the sounds of the lake wafting through the air. On the public side and in the gated community of Pine Harbour, this 4, 000+ sq foot retreat has been completely renovated in 2022-'23 with thoughtful design and customization. This fantastic getaway maintains it's modest, lake-home feel with wood burning stove, casement windows, floor to ceiling screened in porch, outdoor patio, circular driveway and wandering garden paths.
