Description
Tucked into 1.4 wooded acres in the Apple Mountain Lake community, this chalet-style retreat delivers the kind of mountain escape that’s increasingly hard to find — and even harder to leave. Built in 2022, the three-bedroom, three-bath home brings together modern construction and natural surroundings without sacrificing either.
Inside, vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows draw the outside in, while a stone fireplace anchors the great room as a natural gathering space in every season. The kitchen carries the same thoughtful finish work — granite countertops, clean cabinetry — that runs throughout. With three full baths and well-proportioned bedrooms, the layout works equally well for a full-time household, a rotating cast of weekend guests, or a short-term rental setup.
The 1.4-acre lot provides genuine privacy and a wooded buffer that signals mountain getaway the moment you arrive. A deck extends the living space outdoors, where the tree canopy and Blue Ridge views set the tone. A garage rounds out the practical side of the package.
Apple Mountain Lake adds a layer that comparable properties simply can’t match — a residents-only lake with beach access, dock, and swimming, plus hiking trails winding through the surrounding landscape. Minutes from I-66, the property sits within easy reach of Front Royal, the Shenandoah Valley, and the DC metro corridor — a natural fit for remote workers, weekend buyers, and investors eyeing the area’s active short-term rental market.
