The charming two-story 3-bedroom, 2-full bathroom farmhouse situated on 2.57 acres is fronted by Pugh's Run. Its bucolic setting on a hill affords a view of the western slope of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the stream provide access to paddling the North Fork of the river. The house, originally a family dairy farm, dates to early 1900's with comfort enhancements including replacement windows, metal roof, water heater, water conditioning system, insulation, and drainage system. The upper level with hardwood floors throughout features a large primary bedroom with a balcony overlooking the brick patio, a large bathroom with a modern shower, and two guest bedrooms. The first level living room has a Franklin wood-burning stove, original wood beamed ceiling and arched woodwork, and hardwood floors. The dining room is great for family gatherings with tiled floor; a second full bathroom and a country kitchen complete the first floor. 480 Artz Road is just a two-mile drive to the town of Woodstock, home of the Woodstock Cafe and Woodstock Brewhouse. Stop by for tasty sandwiches, coffee and pastries made at the Flour & Water Bakery. A stroll down Main Street will take you to the Sugar Creek Snowy & Sweet Ice Cream Shop serving generous scoops of frozen treats. Crafts, art, antiques, and vineyards can be visited all along the Valley Pike (Route 11). Historical Civil War sites abound: Hupp's Hill, Belle Grove Plantation, and New Market. At Meems Bottom, one of the last remaining covered bridges takes you to the Route 11 Potato Chip Factory for the best chips around. Hiking and fishing can be enjoyed in the George Washington and Shenandoah National Parks and the new Seven Bends State Park. Luray Caverns and Shenandoah Caverns are nearby as well. And be sure to visit the Canoe Capital of Virginia, down valley in Front Royal. A drive to the Woodstock Fire Tower to take in the Seven Bends of the Shenandoah River at sunset is not to be missed.
