103 Castleton Ford Rd

Welcome to Castle Spring Farm a hidden treasure that will take your breath away. As the sun begins its descent, imagine sitting on your deck overlooking 22 acres of pristine pasture and forest, a breathtaking view of Shenandoah National Park, a stocked spring-fed pond, and the stone remains of the original road that connected Little Washington to Culpeper in the early 1800’s. Imagine the people who once used the road daily and picked freely from the pawpaw trees, or stumbled upon a cluster of morels, or collected chestnuts to bring back home to roast. Imagine a stillness and silence so deep and encompassing that only the sounds of bird calls or the rustling of trees can be heard. 103 Castleton Ford Road blends the simplicity and serenity of the past with all the modern comforts and conveniences; it is a dream home come to fruition.The main home has 3 bedrooms with 2.5 bathrooms, fantastic gourmet kitchen with an open space for a dining and living room. The guest house has an artist studio with a powder room, an apartment studio upstairs with full bath and bedroom, plus a two car garage. Both buildings are equipped with whole house generators for peace of mind. As soon as you enter the main house you are presented with a choice. If you walk straight through the luxurious foyer with powder room Italian ceramic tiles, you will find yourself on the screened in porch section of the deck, which is the perfect spot for summer morning breakfasts and a second cup of coffee. The other section of the deck is open, enhancing the stunning views that lay before you. Leaning over the deck you will see the asparagus bed, a raised bed vegetable garden protected by wire fencing, blueberry, raspberry and gooseberry bushes, and tart cherry and fig trees bursting with fruit. Back inside, the open concept kitchen, with cherrywood kitchen/pantry cabinets and dramatic sealed granite counters, overlooks the dining and living room, which was very thoughtfully and logically laid out: cook delicious delights grown from your garden, eat the gorgeous meals you make at the dining room table, then move to the living room or go back outside on your deck to relax and take a moment to be thankful for it all. A lovely primary bedroom with a marble-floored full bath with cherry cabinetry and a walk-in closet that will accommodate all your clothing storage. There is an extra room that includes a half bath which could be used for an office or bedroom. Downstairs, the den is the embodiment of comfort and relaxation. Light a fire in the Quadra-Fire wood burning stove and heat your entire house. Curl up on the couch and stream your favorite series on high-speed Starlink internet. Sleep in the spacious guest bedroom if you don’t feel like walking back upstairs. Or better yet, go sit out on the lower level covered porch and listen to the rain beating down above you as it collects into the under-deck drainage system. Entering the studio, the true scope of the spaces comes to life. It is complete with a half bath, giant stainless steel work sink, and tons of space for any creative endeavor you want to do. As you make your way up the new entry steps and stand on the newly installed deck overlooking the mountains, you will find a charming apartment with everything you could need. The kitchen, recently completely renovated, includes a washer/dryer, gas range stove, dishwasher, fridge, granite countertops, and ample cupboard space. The dining room and living room are connected and the windows allow for beautiful natural light all day long not to mention that magnificent view. Along with a full bathroom, also recently renovated, and cozy bedroom, this apartment would be the perfect fit for guests to stay the night or even more long term.
