Maple Cottage - Cheery Ridgetop Home in Mt Jackson, 3 Acres and Mtn Views

Welcome to our bright and cozy home nestled amidst the breathtaking natural beauty of the Shenandoah Valley. Perfect for families, nature enthusiasts, and remote workers, Maple Cottage offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. With 3 wooded acres, firepit, deck, books, games, toys, TV, and a work space, the cottage offers a peaceful respite and cheerful homebase to explore local attractions including skiing, hiking, caverns, golf, vineyards, and Shenandoah National Park. Dogs welcome.

DETAILS
Just 2 hours from Washington, D.C., our home offers comfortable furnishings and warm, cheerful décor. The small house is well designed, with multiple sleeping options (2 bedrooms, den, and living room) despite its intimate size of 700 square feet. You will have full private access to the entire property, including a spacious gravel parking area for multiple vehicles or an RV.

Relax in the cozy living room and enjoy a family movie or game night. Prepare a meal in the fully equipped kitchen and share a picnic on the patio. Rest under the stars in the hammock or while roasting marshmallows around the firepit. Enjoy sunrise coffee on the deck with beautiful views and sounds of nature. Or stay snuggled in bed with plentiful pillows and covers, reading a favorite book in the warm lamp light.

Children love to play or watch TV in the small den and explore the woods and yard. Remote workers enjoy the speedy internet, dedicated work space, and peace and quiet for focus.

To one side of the property, you can see the driveway to our neighbor's cabin in the distance. To the other side, you can see a small A-frame. A few lights (or houses, in the winter), may be visible in the distance through the trees. It is a wonderfully tranquil and forested mountain community.

Please note:
- The cottage is on a gravel road at the top of the ridge. A front-wheel drive is recommended. During winter months, an all-wheel or 4-wheel drive is essential if conditions are at all icy or snowy.

- Two steps lead to the front porch. Bedrooms and half bath are on the second floor, via a short but steep carpeted staircase with a firm handrail. A pullout couch bed and full bath are on the first floor.

- Much of the property's 3 acres is on a steep wooded slope behind the house. There is still plenty of flat terrain on the ridgetop. You are also welcome to explore the slope if you don't mind the grade!

- The cottage does not have a separate dining room. There are 2 bar stools and counter space in the kitchen, and 4 folding TV trays in the living room. When the weather is nice, we enjoy dining outside at the picnic table or deck table.
