A PIECE OF THE PAST FOR YOUR FUTURE. Drive along a winding country road of farms, lovely homes (when you can see them) and mountain scenes before turning into White Walnut Hill, circa 1969, a 36 acre estate designed for entertaining with guest house, pool, tennis court, tenant house and a 22 acre pasture for your horses, livestock or specialty farm. The architect designed home was well ahead of its time with walls, niches and shelving for art and special collections. The guest house offers a wonderful 19'x25' Living Room - Library (perhaps your private office?) along with two bedrooms and a bath. President and Mrs Reagan attended a luncheon on the farm in 1981, visiting the columnist James Kilpatrick and his wife Marianne, who created White Walnut Hill. Marine One rested in the upper pasture. This terrific estate awaits a new owner to bring their personal loving touches and new life to this central Rappahannock County landmark. Consider a new chapter for yourself in this welcoming county of natural beauty, art, music and excellent zoning, all adjoining Shenandoah National Park and its myriad trails, vistas and geologic wonders. The folks are friendly and the stars will welcome you to the beauty of the night skies you are missing.

Some properties are just a place apart. One of those special places is the Red Oak Mountain Retreat. This 55 acre parcel features gently rising mountain land, a dramatic modernist house well positioned on the landscape, two bold running streams, and trails meandering through the woodlands. Enhanced by thoughtful landscaping that blends nicely into the forest beyond, Red Oak Mountain Retreat is a true escape from the rest of the world. RESIDENCE Sited on a bluff about two thirds of the way up Red Oak Mountain, the residence was created in 2023 by a noted architect as a retreat for his own family. The house is a sleek modern space designed to showcase the woodland landscape in all directions. Soothing interiors in neutral colors allow the dramatic wood grain of the hand-selected douglas fir trim to take pride of place. Modernist architecture with zen like placement of elements make this a calming retreat from the world. Large windows and high ceilings in all rooms bring the views and allow light to flood each space. The effect is a light and airy open living space in all rooms. Views of Bessie Bell Mountain and the surrounding countryside are visible in the winter months, but the rest of the year the house is enveloped in a wall of greenery cascading up and down the mountain. Rocky outcroppings at the house site have been incorporated into the landscape design and provide a focal point for the house entry way. On the back side of the house the dramatic floor to ceiling windows overlook a small valley with forested hillsides and mountains beyond. The house is an extremely private oasis of calm. Inside, carefully selected luxury finishes and energy efficient appliances and heating and cooling (including raidant heat in all floors) provide a sustainable living experience at the highest quality. GROUNDS The magic of Red Mountain Retreat is the utter privacy of the place. While the architecture blends seamlessly with the landscape, the mountainside is its own captivating source of pleasure.
