10080 mountain run lake

A Rare Slice of Culpeper’s History with One of Its Most Iconic Views. Opportunities like this don’t come around often. Set on just over 11 gently rolling acres, this picturesque property offers a truly breathtaking backdrop—unobstructed views of Mountain Run Lake framed by the Blue Ridge Mountains beyond. It’s the kind of view that never gets old, a postcard-perfect panorama that changes with the seasons and stirs the soul. At the heart of the property stands a 4-bedroom, 1-bath farmhouse believed to date back to the late 1800s, filled with the kind of character only time can create. Original hardwood floors run throughout the home, complemented by solid wood doors, tall baseboards, and beautifully crafted trim. Soaring 10+ foot ceilings and oversized rooms give the home an airy, gracious feel, while nearly every window captures a slice of the stunning scenery. The main level features a spacious country kitchen, a separate formal dining room, a large living room, a main-level bedroom, and a full bath. Down the hall, intricate woodwork and architectural details tell the story of a home built to last. A tucked-away back staircase leads from the upper level down into the kitchen, adding a bit of secret charm. Both the wide front porch and the quieter rear porch offer peaceful spots to soak in the views—whether it’s rolling pasture or mountain peaks you’re drawn to. Behind the main house sits a detached garage, but hidden beneath the siding lies something special: the original log walls of the first home on the property, still intact and rich with history. Whether you dream of restoring the farmhouse to its former glory, transforming it into a charming Bed & Breakfast, creating an event venue, or building the perfect lakeside getaway, this property offers endless potential. There's also possible division potential (please confirm with Culpeper County zoning). Sold strictly AS-IS, this is a true diamond in the rough, waiting for someone with vision and heart to make it shine again. Come walk the land, breathe the mountain air, and let the view speak for itself—you’ll know you’ve found something rare.
