...Welcome to Shady Creek, with a circa 1831 log home situated on over 24 lush acres fronting on the Opequon Creek. The property features a mix of wooded acreage and cleared meadowland, providing a sanctuary for deer, turkey, eagles, and other wildlife—and with nearly .75 miles of stream frontage stocked with trout, it’s an outdoor/nature lover’s dream. The rustic, chink-and-log home sits on a stone foundation
with a covered porch where you can rock to nature’s vista. The interior is a blend of wood, brick, and beams, and with four bedrooms and 2.5 baths, there’s plenty of space to configure to your liking and add your personal touches. A massive wood-burning fireplace adds warmth to the living room and leads to dining and kitchen areas. A half bath is also on this level. Upstairs are additional bedrooms and baths, with a final bedroom and half-bath in the top level under the gable roof. A deck spans the back portion of the house, overlooking the natural beauty of this land, and the house includes a walk-out basement. You’d think with all this, you’d be miles from civilization, but with a Clearbrook address, you’re minutes from major commuter routes and a short drive to Northern Virginia and Washington DC. Come explore all this property has to offer. Make it your weekend getaway or enjoy the property all four seasons!
