Beautiful, historic Farmhouse and Country Home (circa 1916) on 45 forested acres at the foot of a tall mountain with a pristine stream that runs in front of the home. Located in Manassas Gap, gateway to the Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah Valley, directly across the valley from historic African Mountain and the Southern Appalachian range. Located in a biodiversity hotspot near many historic landmarks, parks, trails, rivers, farms, country kitchens, and festival locations.
