Enjoy unimaginable, far-reaching views from this home located above the historic hamlet of Paris, Virginia. Across the stunning hillside meadows there are plenty of enchanting additional building sites for your new home. There are 7 divisions allowed by right. Mature trees, rubble stone walls and abundant wildlife are found here. The property, located west of Middleburg and Upperville, is easy to access from multiple directions. Perfectly poised for pursuit of an agribusiness/farm winery or brewery. As a single unit, the total 47 acres represents an unparalleled situation to create a one-of-a-kind family compound, country home or hunter's wildlife paradise, enjoying vantage point views like no other. The listing includes 3 adjoining parcels (6.1 acres, 20.28 and 21.47 acres). Good soil, south facing slopes and siting make this an attractive location for vineyards. Located at the landmark intersection of John S. Mosby Highway (Route 50) and Route 17, the location is strategic for a farm winery, farm brewery or other agribusiness. The property has extensive frontage on U.S. Route 50 with several entrance points. The property is situated amidst a variety of protected, conserved lands which contribute to its conservation value.
