1305 EMMETT ROAD

Tucked away in the meadows at the base of iconic Old Rag Mountain, Morningside Meadow is located in one of the most beautiful stretches of the Francis Thornton Valley. Morningside is the term used to describe the east side of the mountains, where the rays of the sunrise first warm the land. This 12-acre parcel has stunning mountain views in every direction, level pastures, and a small woodland complete with a stream that bounds past beautiful boulders. 🌄 The classic Cape Cod was built in 2000 with modern, main-floor living in mind. Each window frames beautiful views from the light-filled interior spaces. The home was fully renovated in 2022 with a gorgeous new kitchen and bathrooms, new windows, new flooring, new HVAC, a whole-house generator, and more. An open space at the front of the home includes the living area and dining area, with glass doors leading outside. There is a full bath off of the living area, which in turn adjoins the laundry-mudroom. The kitchen has an expanse of quartz countertops including a peninsula with space for bar seating. Ample cabinetry in neutral tones and stainless-steel appliances complete the serene, modern look. The kitchen adjoins the laundry-mudroom at one end, and has a seating area with a glass sliding door at the other end. 🌄 The cozy bedroom suite includes a bathroom with a glass-walled shower and a walk-in closet with built-in shelves. There is also a seating nook with a glass door to the outside, which is currently being used as a home office. 🌄 The unfinished upper floor features three large dormers with stunning views. This floor has ample space to create two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. A three-bedroom septic system is already in place allowing for easy expansion of the number of bedrooms. 🌄 The exterior of the home currently includes a front porch and is ready for a new owner to reimagine the outdoor spaces. The renovation project included adding three glass sliding doors to allow easy access to outdoor spaces; the planned wrap-around porch was going to be the next phase. The back yard also has a lovely area for a future patio from which to enjoy views of the meadow and the crags of Old Rag Mountain beyond. 🌄 Just beyond the back yard is a thoughtfully designed horse facility that can accommodate two horses or perhaps some goats or sheep. There is a two-stall stable with a covered “porch” area, a run-in shed, and an additional storage shed. Four-board fencing around the paddock and a frost-free hydrant are in place. Beyond the paddock lies the meadow, which makes up the majority of the parcel. There is ample acreage for expansion: additional grazing, a riding ring, a large vegetable garden, or perhaps a swimming pool and a large workshop? In addition to the expansive meadow, a small area of woods at the far end of the property hides a small stretch of stream that is a tributary to Rosson Hollow Run. 🌄 Morningside Meadow is situated in a location central to all that the area has to offer. Madison, Rappahannock and surrounding counties offer endless recreational possibilities. Only about 11 miles from the popular Village of Sperryville and 13 from Madison, it is also only 20 minutes or less to several popular trail heads leading into Shenandoah National Park. The trail head for the famed Old Rag Mountain is about five minutes away. It is less than five minutes to the Hughes River and about 20 minutes to the Rose and Robinson rivers for great trout fishing. Several foxhunting clubs are nearby and for the trail rider, miles of trails beckon in Shenandoah National Park. There are wineries and breweries, great restaurants and cafes, antique stores, farms and orchards, and so much more to be explored. Morningside Meadow is an ideal base for it all.
