PORTFOLIO<br />
The mountains seen from the great room appear to have<br />
been skillfully placed just to enhance the view from the<br />
20-foot high bay window. The Blue Ridge Mountains<br />
stretch across its width, making a spectacular backdrop<br />
for the rolling pastures and forests, dotted here and<br />
there with a rustic barn, fences, and grazing cattle. This is Hidden<br />
Streams, 194± acres located in beautiful Madison County, Virginia.<br />
Situated north of Charlottesville and within an easy drive of Northern<br />
Virginia and Washington, D.C., Madison County is a rural retreat<br />
between two vibrant areas of historic Virginia. Once you manage to<br />
pull away from the views, you will see that beauty lies inside as well<br />
as out. The timber frame home that provides the context for the bay<br />
window contains over 7,500 square feet of finished living space. The<br />
rich, blond woods of the timber framing are complemented by the<br />
reclaimed oak cider barrel floors and the oak stairs, railings, doors,<br />
windows, and trim. The custom designed stained-glass entry and<br />
other special touches are evidence of the care and craftsmanship<br />
that went into the construction of this unique home. Five bedrooms<br />
and additional bonus rooms provide all the space and flexibility for<br />
a large household, or one that just grows on special occasions. The<br />
master suite is spectacular, featuring a large bow window with its own<br />
amazing views, two walk-in closets, a sitting area, large master bath<br />
with shower and Jacuzzi, and a dressing room. The second floor has<br />
one large en suite bedroom and two that share a bath. In addition to<br />
an en suite bedroom, the walk-out lower level includes a large main<br />
room (billiards, anyone?), a full bath and two bonus rooms. But real<br />
living begins with the kitchen and Hidden Streams boasts a gourmet<br />
stage for preparing your meals. To enjoy those meals, choose the<br />
spacious dining room, the cozy breakfast nook or in fair weather, a<br />
table on the deck. While admiring the panoramic mountain views<br />
from the deck, you will also notice the professionally landscaped patio<br />
leading up to the swimming pool and cabana. With these and many<br />
more amenities, Hidden Streams is a place to enjoy country living<br />
at its finest.<br />
