Rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored circa-1802 historic home, once home to a Civil War-era blacksmith shop, set on a peaceful 3-acre tract near North River and Ice Mountain. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath property blends authentic period character with thoughtful modern updates, featuring original hardwood floors, exposed beams and ceilings, hewn log walls, stone and brick details, updated windows, baseboard heat, a traditional fireplace, and a professionally installed wood-burning stove. Major improvements include chimney repairs with a new liner, supplemental gas heat, a whole-house water filtration system, new gravel and stone driveway, improved grading and drainage, and a 10-by-30 wooden storage shed. The renovated kitchen was finished with custom cabinetry designed for historic homes, wood countertops, hickory flooring, updated plumbing, new sink, and replaced appliances including a gas cooking range. Outdoor features include a stone patio, greenhouse, small orchard, and open space for relaxing, grilling, and enjoying the private natural setting. Located within walking distance of Ice Mountain Nature Preserve and close to North River, hiking, fishing, birdwatching, off-road trails, and other outdoor recreation, while still approximately two hours from DC. As a vacation rental, the property has generated approximately $21,000 over the past year and can include an existing property manager and cleaner for a seamless transition. Furniture is optional and available for purchase. See seller docs for detailed rental history, financials, and improvement details. $1,000 buyer credit available if you continue using the current property manager.
