About this House
The home is in Montebello--which means beautiful mountain, and this is one of the most unique and beautiful properties in the entire area. While the mountain home offers total privacy, the property is only a 25 minute drive to Interstates 64 & 81.
The property has everything you want--open fields, streams, springs, ponds, and woods with trails. Three small tributaries merge on the NW edge of the property to form the North Fork of the Tye River--which flows year-round along the northern part of the property directly in front of the home.
The property is situated two miles from the famous Blue Ridge Parkway and just a few more miles from an access-point to the Appalachian Trail. The property is Located in Nelson County, fifteen miles from the famous Wintergreen Skiing Resort, and in easy drive to world class vineyards.
The substantial wooded part of the property extends to the south and all the way to the ridge of Fork Mountain--offering some extensive views and protecting the sacred watershed supplying the home and a number of ponds on the property. There is an old spring box and cistern, but now a well is used for primary water--supported with both a filter system and a UV sanitizing system. For peace of mind, the well-pump is supported by a back-up power generator in case the grid-power goes down. The home has two structural sections: a nice one-story older brick home, and a newer two-story addition. There is a large deck off the front of the home, and the addition has a very nice second-story deck which gets the morning-sun and offers nice views. The older home has been completely renovated--with new wiring, new insulation, energy rated windows, and new floor-beam supports. The entire home has recessed lighting, painted drywall, and nice ambiance. The home and two out-buildings are supported by three electrical panels. The master bedroom (in the addition) has open design with lots of windows. Adjacent is a full bath with two-person Jacuzzi tub/shower. The main living room has a beautiful unique real-stone fireplace with tiled hearth. The fire box is a professional energy-rated insert, with a new professionally installed flue liner system for energy efficiency. The home uses three heating systems: firebox, three propane heating units, and two electrical heat-pumps--each system used at various times of the seasons. Throughout the home there are five closets. Both the garage and tool shed have electrical support.
The home is supported by two satellite systems (one for TV, the other for Internet) and wiring for two land-line phones. Direct fiberoptic internet is expected in early 2022. The home has two land-line potentials and the cell phone is supported by the personal internet/router. There is also a home security system.
A key feature is the home's double back-up power system: (1) a "Generac" automatic transfer power-generator; (2) a solar power battery system. Both can be used in emergency situations. The back-up generator, home propane heaters and the kitchen range run off a 1,000 gallon privately owned propane system--which provides year-round support. Be aware--the Zillow price value listing is in error due to faulty data. The home itself is tax-rated at $225,000 and Insurance rated at $285,000. Acreages is valued at 5,000 to 7,000 per acre based on other properties.
If you are looking for mountain safety with self-reliance, privacy, beauty, and expandability, then this is the home and property for you. Contact seller at 540-377-2484
