Tucked into the mountainside along the Cacapon River, Cacapon Landing is a truly special retreat set on 13.3 wooded acres overlooking the historic Capon Lake Whipple Truss Bridge. Built in 1979, this thoughtfully designed home was created to embrace its natural surroundings, blending timeless craftsmanship, natural materials, and modern improvements into a setting that feels far removed from the ordinary. The home’s connection to the landscape is evident from the moment you step inside. The lower-level den features exposed rock incorporated directly into the architecture, creating a warm and unforgettable gathering space where the mountain itself becomes part of the home. The lower level also features a kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and an adjoining dining area. The upper level offers a cozy living area, two exceptionally large bedrooms, a generous walk-in closet, and a full bath with classic white tile and a walk-in shower. Beautiful hardwood floors extend throughout the upper level, and a stone patio off the living area provides the perfect place to enjoy the surrounding woods and mountain air. The current owner has thoughtfully improved the exterior and grounds, creating a beautifully maintained canvas for the next owner to personalize. Behind the charm is carefully planned infrastructure designed for comfort and peace of mind, including an electric hydronic boiler system, private well with advanced water treatment and Well-X-Trol pressure tank, rainwater collection cistern for gardening, and an engineered perimeter drainage system with lower-level sump pump and high-water alarm. The home’s hillside construction naturally helps regulate interior temperatures, keeping it remarkably cool in summer, while a whole-house attic fan brings in fresh mountain air for the warmest days. While surrounded by the beauty of the mountains, Cacapon Landing is conveniently located just minutes from the charming town of Wardensville, known for its local shops, bookstore, restaurants, and farmers market. For additional shopping and services, Winchester is approximately 30 minutes away, and the DC metro area is an easy drive of just under two hours, making this an ideal mountain escape without feeling remote. Recently appraised above the asking price, Cacapon Landing offers a rare opportunity to create a mountain retreat of your own. A place with character, convenience, and a setting that invites you to slow down and enjoy the surroundings.
