Updated Farmhouse Near the Parkway, w/ 11 acre Park w/ Stream/ Ponds/ Disc Golf!

Looking to escape the fast-paced life of the city? This 1920's updated farmhouse off the Blue Ridge Parkway is the perfect solution. This 10+ acre park features ponds, a trail, & a disc golf course. Return to the simple life by relaxing in the hot tub, or by lounging next to the rushing stream! In 2019, we expanded our vision & have built a timber frame barn (over 300 ft from the house), featuring a site (Wonderlust Acres) for weddings & events. The Stargazer calendar will be blocked for events.
Relax on the covered front porch overlooking the ponds and pasture, and listen to the soothing sounds of the rushing stream and the joyful chorus of nature. Curl up with a book in one of the home's cozy nooks, or go for a invigorating morning walk along the gravel roads or trails through the many acres of mature forests that surround the house. Kick back in the hot tub on the cool nights and enjoy the firefly show, start a warm fire in the fire pit, or just lay out under the stars of the protected Dark Skies area to take in the magnificence of creation.
Included is: a 5-person hot tub beside the house, high speed wi-fi, firepit and patio stone fire pit and charcoal grill, 10.5 acres to wander, complete with 3 ponds, a walking bridge, and 2 covered pavilions.
As of the Spring 2020, in addition to the farmhouse, we are offering an open air glamping loft in the pond pavilion that sleeps 4 more guests on 2 full mattresses. There are also 2 guest rooms in the barn (sleeping 2 on pull-out sofas in each) with access to the barn bathrooms and outdoor showers. Search for Wonderlust Acres under our listings to book that with up to 24 guests. The glamping options WILL NOT be in use if the Stargazer Farmhouse is rented, and were added just for large groups/events to book the entire property.
Starting in the end of 2023, we will be adding our 1st Tiny House on site for guests to book. The tiny house is tucked far in the woods at the back of the property and way out of view of the farmhouse. The tiny house will be booked separately as a unique vacation rental, and will be instructed to have access to a small sitting area on the creek at the farthest end of the property from the farmhouse . ***THOUGH GUESTS FROM EACH WOULD RARELY SEE EACH OTHER, IF YOU PREFER COMPLETE PRIVACY, THEN FEEL FREE TO ASK IF THE TINY HOUSE(S) ARE BOOKED BEFORE YOU BOOK STARGAZER AND WE CAN LET YOU KNOW***

2 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway, 25 minutes to Boone or West Jefferson, sits this very private oasis. The picturesque farmhouse is tucked back on a hill overlooking the large trout stream and 3 ponds set within the expansive landscape. Truly paradise.
The nearest restaurant is amazing, and is called the Park Vista Restaurant (check their site for hours of operation). The nearest gas station (with some basic supplies) from the house is about 12 minutes away at the corner of hwy 163 and hwy 16. Mountain Aire Seafood and Steaks is next to it. Downtown West Jefferson is 25 minutes away, and has a great downtown area (breweries, restaurants, theatre, cheese factory, outdoor outfitters, etc). For good fishing and floating, the New River is just 10 minutes away.
**We have a minimum age policy of 23, due to some unfortunate past uses of our properties by younger guests**
