82 Cowpasture River Highway, Clifton Forge, VA 24422

Property Description

Known locally as “Frog45” this custom built home sits above the Cowpasture River on a private mountain lot. Sited so no neighbors are in view on either side, and the 3.64 acres include the parcel across the highway, so the view out front is nature, not neighbors. The main level has a true mountain cabin feel. Beamed ceilings frame the living room, anchored by a stone gas fireplace wrapped in built-in shelving. The open kitchen boasts a large island bar with sleek granite, recessed lighting, and custom cabinetry. Wood floors run throughout, and natural light pours in from the windows. High speed internet and a whole house generator keep you connected. A hall leads past the half bath to a library with built-ins. The primary suite offers beamed ceilings, a walk-in closet big enough to dress in, and a spa bath with a glass surround tile shower, clawfoot tub, dual vanity, linen closet and water closet. Double wide stairs lead to a central living area and twin suites on either side, each with a full bath. An office lined with storage, a storage room and a walkout to a small patio complete the floor. A covered travertine walkway, lit by hanging lanterns, welcomes you from the oversized detached garage. A separate lower rear entrance takes you to the workshop below. Another walkway reaches a screened porch with a vaulted ceiling, light/fan fixtures, power, a critter proof screened deck floor, and tempered glass along the lower walls for clear views of nature below. Beneath the walkways, impatiens planted as a few annuals have spread into a carpet of pink, coral and white. Steps lead down to the clean Cowpasture River, and a King's Grant extends ownership across the riverbed. Cast a line in notably one of the cleanest Virginia rivers, as eagles soar above and deer roam nearby. Located in Bath County, on the Alleghany line, offers conveniences of both. The Homestead, Greenbrier, and I-64 are just an easy drive down country roads. Come find the quiet here, wrapped in nature, with a stretch of river few call their own.
