What a find!  Fantastic cottage on 5 wooded acres,  fronting on Dillons Run Stream, in Hampshire County, near Capon Bridge, W.Va.  This owner has recently updated, and built a 24 x 24 addition that includes a main level master bedroom suite with tons of closet space, and new laundry area.  This beautiful new rustic bedroom has a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, and a wall of glass looking out to the stream.  The cozy livingroom has a corner stone, woodburning fireplace, and beamed ceiling. The kitchen was recently outfitted with upgraded stainless steel appliances.  Upstairs are two guest bedrooms sharing a half-bath and closet, and a loft area that is presently home to the weight bench.  Also new is a run-in barn with hay storage in the rear; perfect for a two horse set-up. The deck overlooks a small pond with a fountain. The property fronts on a beautiful, everflowing trout stream.  The wrap-around rear deck extends beyond the 48' long house.  The hot tub will convey, as will many of the furnishings.  The deck is most relaxing, overlooking the back yard all the way to the stream.  This is really a peaceful setting, and this home fits perfectly in the surroundings. The original two story section of the house was built in 1989, with a brick/stone/wood exterior. The addition was added within the past two years, and the home now finishes out at just under 1700 sq.ft. A new roof was installed at the same time. Heating is baseboard electric, wall heating & air unit, and the woodburning fireplace. Need to get out of the city?  This rustic cottage does make the perfect weekend getaway, and is less than two hours from the Beltway. There is also nothing to keep this from being your full time residence.
