About this home
Welcome to The Washington House at Ashby Landing! A property of both natural beauty and historic significance - this is the former Thomas Ashby homestead where George Washington once stayed. This rare 40-acre estate that spans across two separately deeded parcels includes 1,000 feet of private Shenandoah River frontage. The spacious log home features cathedral ceilings, 4 bedrooms, 2 renovated baths, a large basement, screened-in porch, an expansive river-facing deck, high speed internet, a fully fenced yard, and more. Electricity, water, & all utilities already added - the home is move-in ready! Other recent updates include new windows, doors, HVAC, etc. Additional highlights: a recently restored 60’x60’ barn that provides versatile space for storage or agricultural use, a gated driveway, an additional deck in the fenced-in backyard, and a private beach with river access for fishing, kayaking, and swimming. This land is the perfect opportunity to use as your own special retreat, build an additional home on the second lot, or even use the sprawling estate to grow a vineyard/winery. Over 1,200 hardwood seedlings were also planted along the river under a VA Dept. of Forestry grant, enhancing the land’s natural beauty and long-term value. The open fields produce hay and are enrolled in the Warren County Land Use program. Don't miss your chance to see this rare and breathtaking piece of history!
