luxury house with terrace for sale Winchester, United States

With over 1,000 feet of direct North Fork Shenandoah riverbank access, this 55-acre property offers a balanced mix of open pasture and mature woodland. In 2017, the current owners constructed a custom home designed to complement the setting, supported by additional structures including a renovated 19th-century bank barn guest house, a detached three-bay garage, and a separate tractor barn. The residence was built to exacting standards using 2x6 framing, stone and HardiePlank siding, custom exterior doors, and locally milled hardwood flooring installed by Cochran’s of Berryville using lumber harvested from the property. The home offers 3,174 square feet of above-grade finished living space with three bedrooms, two full and two half baths, and a layout that places all primary living areas on the main level. An unfinished lower level provides approximately 850 square feet of storage with potential for future finishing, along with an additional one-car garage. Antique doors sourced from around the world are incorporated throughout the home. The gourmet kitchen features a wood-topped center island and tumbled stone tile flooring, opening to a sitting area with wood-burning stove. This space flows directly to a deep, full-width, northeast-facing covered porch with elevated views of the river and surrounding mountains. Quality fixtures and fittings are used throughout, including William Morris wallpaper in select rooms. A two-car side-load attached garage is complemented by a 40’ x 24’ detached three-bay garage suitable for equipment and storage. The 60’ x 30’ tractor barn, with an attached mechanicals room, offers flexible space for a variety of future uses. Just below the porch, a tiered outdoor entertaining terrace includes an expansive concrete patio, integrated stone seating, landscaped beds, and a substantial wood-burning masonry fireplace set against a private wooded backdrop. The circa 1830 bank barn, served by its own well and septic system, has been converted into guest accommodations featuring a kitchen, raised stage, sleeping quarters, one full and one half bathroom, cathedral beamed ceilings, and a second floor mezzanine/gallery, spanning much of the open interior. A private riverfront property with acreage, multiple structures, and broad scenic views, located just over an hour from Washington, D.C.

PRICE REDUCED! Where Architectural Digest meets mountain serenity-welcome to 79 Marigold Way. A modern eco-luxe retreat nestled in the exclusive Broomgrass community, this 3-bedroom, 4-bath passive solar masterpiece was designed by acclaimed natural architect Sigi Koko and custom-built over two years with impeccable attention to craftsmanship, sustainability, and sensory living. At the heart of the 3,479 sq ft residence lies a dramatic two-story stone fireplace, with a Rumford firebox designed to reflect heat into the room. 180 tons of hand quarried limestone salvaged from a pre-Civil War era barn foundation in Shepherdstown was transported for the construction of the fireplace, retaining walls, and stone features, such as the cairn at the top of the driveway. Blacksmiths by local artisans at Anvil Works hand forged the fireplace screen. The open-concept living and dining space is anchored by hand-troweled, radiant-heated concrete floors and floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the seasonally shifting landscape and fill the home with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is as durable as it is refined, featuring Lukrete concrete countertops, custom bamboo cabinetry by Cohen Custom Cabinetry, natural-edge walnut accents, and eco-conscious finishes. Just steps away, a curved architectural wall leads to a cozy family room designed for quiet evenings and uninterrupted streaming, thanks to high-speed connectivity from nearby towers. The first-floor primary suite is a sanctuary in its own right, with an ensuite bathroom featuring double terrazzo sinks, an overhead rain showerhead, and a site-poured Japanese soaking tub crafted from concrete and polished to a soft finish- a sculptural centerpiece grounded in wellness and intentional design. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a cleverly designed bath featuring a space-saving sliding glass shower that can be accessed from either side, perfectly balancing function and flow. Both rooms feature sustainable cork flooring, soft underfoot, continuing the eco-conscious narrative. Both bedrooms offer captivating sightlines to the lush, living roof, an eco-friendly feature that acts as a thermal insulator to reduce energy consumption. A cozy second floor sitting nook provides access to the cantilevered balcony where you can enjoy the surrounding landscape or gaze at the night sky. From a glass walkway, you are led through an interior bridge to a separate studio apartment, complete with a full kitchenette, tiled shower, and a private balcony overlooking North Mountain and fields. Outdoors, every detail has been considered: a deep covered patio with a wood-burning fireplace, living roof blooming with sedum, and garden paths lined with lavender, hellebores, phlox, and mature crepe myrtles. Panoramic views of Sleepy Creek and North Mountain complete the immersive natural experience. This is a home where sustainable luxury meets editorial-worthy design. Geothermal heating and cooling, radiant floor heating, and passive solar orientation work in harmony with thick straw-bale wall insulation to create year-round comfort with reduced energy consumption. Clay and lime plaster offer both tactile elegance and natural breathability. Douglas Fir moldings and trim elevate every surface with warm tones. An underground water collection cistern, along with bio-kinetic septic system, provides landscape irrigation. Broomgrass is a 325 acre community comprised of 16, one-acre properties with shared ownership of the remaining 309 acres of pastures and woodlands in a preservation trust. Shared amenities include a large pool, hot tub, sauna, pavilion, and kitchen for community gatherings. A true unicorn property, seamlessly blending design pedigree, environmental ethos, and editorial appeal.
