Experience a rare level of Hunt Country luxury in the historic Village of Paris. This meticulously reimagined retreat represents a sophisticated fusion of mid-century character and bold, contemporary design. Situated on a sprawling half-acre lot, the property commands attention with its Hardiplank and masonry exterior, framed by authentic dry-stack stone walls. The main level is a light-filled sanctuary defined by gleaming hardwoods, classic crown molding, and a wall of windows framing the rolling Blue Ridge foothills. Designed for an uncluttered lifestyle, the floor plan features a sophisticated, high-efficiency kitchen that transitions seamlessly into the formal dining room, creating a cohesive space ideal for effortless entertaining. The main level living quarters consist of two bright bedrooms—including one with direct access to the expansive covered deck. Both are complemented by a flawlessly updated full bath, showcasing custom designer tilework and a large glass-enclosed shower. Beyond the main living space is a dedicated sunroom wrapped in rustic cedar planking, offering a serene, glass-enclosed escape with access to the rear deck, linking the main house to the driveway and the detached garage. For a striking architectural focal point, a sleek industrial-chic spiral staircase ascends from the living area to a private loft, complete with its own balcony overlooking the stunning village scenery. The true centerpiece of the home is the expansive lower-level entertainment space. This fully finished walk-out basement features a massive modern recreation room defined by rich wood ceilings and recessed lighting. A stylish wet bar with custom cabinetry and expansive stone counters serves the space, which also includes a second spa-like full bath with a sleek tiled walk-in shower. The indoor-outdoor flow is unmatched: step out to a full-length covered deck with polished wood ceilings and dual fans, a lower masonry patio with natural stone accents, or the private rear deck featuring a luxury hot tub. The property’s versatility is finalized by a detached, oversized garage compound. This multi-use structure provides premier covered parking or workshop space on the ground floor and a fully self-contained guest suite above. Featuring a separate entrance, kitchenette, and full bath, this auxiliary dwelling is the perfect solution for a high-end rental, professional home office, or private guest quarters. With a massive driveway for plentiful parking, immaculately-maintained landscaping, and a location just steps from the legendary Ashby Inn and Sky Meadows State Park, this turn-key residence offers an unrivaled lifestyle in Virginia's most coveted hamlet.
