Step into a world of timeless charm at The Farm at Jump View, a beautiful 4-acre farmhouse built in 1870, nestled in the shadow of the majestic Jump Mountain. This historic property, surrounded on three sides by a sprawling 177-acre calf pasture, ensures a serene escape where its just you, the gentle mooing of cows, and the tranquil beauty of nature. As you approach the property, the babbling waters of Walkers Creek greet you, and you cross a quaint bridge to access this private haven.
As you step inside, the farmhouse-style décor seamlessly blends the old-world charm with modern comforts, telling tales of a bygone era while catering to contemporary needs. Located near the iconic Lexington, VA, in the heart of Rockbridge Baths, the house boasts 4 cozy bedrooms, 3 baths, and 2 spacious living areas, perfect for families and groups. The fully-equipped kitchen, with its rustic aesthetics, is a haven for those who love to whip up culinary delights. For those seeking active family fun, the property offers onsite tennis, basketball, and shuffleboard, ensuring hours of entertainment and bonding.
But the true essence of this farmhouse is its outdoor spaces. Spend your mornings sipping coffee on the serene screened-in porch, watching the cows graze and listening to the birds chirp. As the day unfolds, explore nearby attractions like Goshen Pass or try your hand at fishing in Lake Merriweather.
By evening, gather around the firepit, which offers unparalleled views of Jump Mountain, and let the provided firewood crackle as you share stories under the starlit sky. Every corner of this property, from its farmhouse décor to the vast pastures, promises a rejuvenating experience, taking you back in time while offering all the luxuries of today. Book your stay and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of The Farm at Jump View.
You will have use of the entire property including the tennis court. A smart lock will provide self check-in unique to you and limited to the duration of your stay.
We are committed to providing excellent service and ensuring your stay is exceptional. Rest assured, were available to assist you throughout your visit.
