About this property
Charming 1891 Country Farmhouse: Game Room, Fire Pit, 2 Acres, EV Charger
Welcome to the 1891 Farmhouse, your perfect country escape just outside of Winchester, VA. Experience historic charm beautifully blended with modern living on a peaceful 2-acre property. Whether you are looking to tour local wineries, explore historic downtown, or simply unplug and enjoy a relaxing country reset, our farmhouse is your ideal home base.
Proud to be a Veteran-Owned property!
The Heart of the Home & Downstairs Delight Step into a beautifully bright kitchen with features every cook will adore. It effortlessly spills out onto a spacious side porch—ample in size for entertaining, al fresco dining, or simply relaxing while watching the local deer play. Downstairs is completed by a dedicated dining room and a large, welcoming living room.
Cozy Note: While the home features a beautiful original fireplace that adds to the historic charm, it is currently decorative only and not available for guest use. However, we invite you to enjoy the outdoor fire pit—we even provide the firewood! Layout Note: There is no bedroom or full bathroom on the main floor.
Upstairs: History and Comfort As you ascend the beautifully angled staircase, the original wood floors immediately capture your attention. This home truly resonates with old-world charm, evident in the gorgeous original doors, antique knobs, a classic pocket door, and the comforting character of gently sloped floors and windows.
The Master Suite: A tranquil retreat with a queen-sized bed, a dedicated desk, and free weights and a yoga mat for a quick workout.
Bedroom 2: Features a comfortable queen bed and a dedicated desk.
Bedroom 3: A bright and cheery room with two twin beds (both with trundles)—perfect for families or sleepovers!
Laundry: A convenient laundry stack is located just outside the hall bathroom for quick cleanups.
Outdoor Adventures & The Game Shed Hours of fun await in our detached game shed, crafted from 100-year-old barn wood that previously stood on the property. Inside, you'll find a combination pool/ping-pong table and classic arcade games. Outside, the two-acre property offers a volleyball net, cornhole, and the daily possibility of spotting local wildlife like bunnies, deer, wild turkeys, or even a groundhog!
Perfectly Positioned for Exploring In true 19th-century fashion, this historic home sits close to the road that connects you to nearby Winchester and local wineries. This provides quick, easy access for exploring the area, while the large side porch and backyard offer a private space to watch for deer and enjoy the country air.

Modern Conveniences & House Rules EV Charger: Emporia EV Level 2 charger We do not accept long-term stays.
A Note on Connection (Digital Detox) While we do have Wi-Fi, the connection can be a bit 'rural' and inconsistent. We like to think of it as a great excuse to put the phones away, grab a board game, and enjoy each other's company! If you’re planning a working holiday that requires heavy Zoom calls or high-speed streaming, this might not be the best fit—but if you’re looking to truly unplug, you’re in the right place.
Other Things to Note TV: Our television is setup for streaming your favorite apps only. Water Softener: The home relies on a well and a water softener system. Country Wildlife: Because this is a true rural setting, you may occasionally encounter local country bugs or seasonal stink bugs during your stay.
