Property description

Major Price Improvement to Rossfields Horse Farm! Whether you are looking for an income producing horse boarding & training facility, your own private horse and other animal oasis, or your dream homestead, this is the place for you! The peaceful and captivating 21.08 acres boasts beautiful Blue Ridge Mountain views, large, lush pastures with run in shelters and the serene feeling you are home. As you drive up to the 4-bedroom 3.5 bath home, you will notice the stately and inviting wrap-around porch that provides a year-round place to enjoy family, friends, and the gorgeous views. Inside the 3,550 sq foot home, the main living area is open with lots of natural sunlight, hardwood floors, & a gorgeous floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Primary Suites on both main and terrace level! The primary suite on the main features a walk-in closet, en-suite bathroom with double sinks, tile floor, mountain & pastoral views as well as French doors out to the porch. Two large secondary bedrooms on the main level have large closets and are adjoined by a jack-n-jill bathroom with double sinks and tile flooring. The terrace level provides a private stepless entry off of a 10x70 stone-paved covered patio, a large laundry room, office area, massive mother-in-law suite, ensuite bathroom with large walk-in shower. There is a backup generator for house and water systems. The 2.5 car garage has ample space for storage, second refrigerator/freezer, or workshop. Over the last 25 years the owners have put thoughtful purpose into ensuring there is ease of the workflow in maintaining and running their horse boarding facility, training grounds, magnificent gardens, and home.  The inviting manicured acre that surrounds the home is bordered by a creek, trees, and a large oval garden, made for entertaining. Flowering shrubs and perennials are everywhere available for cutting and arrangements.  Many other fertile garden sites are throughout the property.  Large windows and multiple doors to the wrap around covered porch provide garden, mountain, and pastoral views. As you pass the house and continue down the driveway to your barn, you will find 8 stalls (6 matted), tack room, feed room, and hay loft.  The barn is beautiful, open and airy, with tongue and groove boards, sliding stall doors, and aisle ceiling fans.  Outside is a stall wash area with hot and cold water.  Beyond the wash area are more garden spots and a riding ring with a sand base and grass footing; there is even partial lighting for night use.  The ring is bordered by 3 paddocks and a 2 stall barn that can be used as a run-in shed.  This small barn also features a large storage room for equipment.  Beyond the paddocks the property is bordered by Merriwether Creek.  Notably the 6 paddocks and pastures along the creek side of the property can all be open to each other or closed off individually. 


ROSSFIELDS FARM is .4 of a mile off Route 151, the lovely byway known as the Brew and Wine Trail that rolls through the beautiful Rockfish Valley.
