6119 Beach Road, Warrenton
HOUSE: This stunning contemporary house sits in the middle of almost sixty (60) acres in hunt/horse country very close to Warrenton. The house was built in 1987 of very fine materials. The emphasis was placed on the southwest sun which streams through many windows across the back of the house.
The tongue and groove paneling on the high ceilings and exposed roof beams adds to the warmth. A stone chimney rises up between the living room and dining room. The current owners had the living room side of the double sided fireplace bricked in & the old opening covered with matching stone. That created a wall against which to set a sofa changing the focus to the opposite end of the room where they had another fireplace built.
They added a wet bar and fridge with cherry cabinet covers against the front wall of that same room.
Because the whole back wall of the house is covered in many windows, the ends and front walls carry the furniture. The owners next tore out dividing walls and opened the granite and stainless kitchen into the breakfast room and dining room. Again lots of windows, light and lovely cherry cabinets.
The Master Bedroom balances the opposite end of the house from the kitchen and opens off the living room. There is a skylight and gas fireplace that works from a remote. The owners bumped out this end of the house to create a lush & sunny bathroom with heavy glass shower and big tub.
To exit the rear of the house one has three choices from separate rooms. All open onto the multi-tiered deck into which a pool is tucked and a gazebo, up a step, shades those who want to look out over the lawns.
PROPERTY: There are two tax parcels being sold. The house sits on 17 acres of level grass. The remaining 42 acre parcel is a mixture of hardwood and pine with trails through it.
If one wanted to build a stable for horses or other livestock, there are many sites. Horse owners dot the neighborhood and there is a very large beef cattle farm across the street. The Casanova Hunt considers this area to be its prime fox hunting country and they maintain the existing trail systems. Most of the children join the local Pony Club and learn how to care for their animals and to follow hounds with the Casanova.
This property is five minutes from Warrenton & Lord Fairfax Community College and fifteen minutes from I-66 for those driving into Washington. Dullas Airport is about 40 minutes away.
TAXES: These two parcels are in land use which means that the land is taxed at a very low figure and only the house & one acres are taxed at the normal assessed value. The taxes on the whole 59.25 acres and house are only $3,859 and in this county are collected in semi-annual payments.
