Welcome to Bluemont, VA, where finding a brand-new 3,175 sq ft custom home in the established Shenandoah Retreat community is an exceptionally rare opportunity-and there are actually two brand-new homes available side by side (ask the listing agent for details on 440 Cedar Lane). Situated on a scenic 0.29-acre lot, this property offers breathtaking front-yard sunset views, back-yard sunrises, no HOA, and low Clarke County taxes-perfectly blending luxury amenities with easy small-town living. As you step inside, gorgeous Cali Bamboo engineered hardwood flooring flows across the main and upper levels. The main floor includes a formal dining room, a full bathroom, and a dedicated home office with a large closet. At the heart of the home, the gourmet eat-in kitchen showcases quartz countertops, upgraded two-tone cabinetry with abundant drawer space, a walk-in pantry, and a built-in coffee, wine, or whiskey bar. Premium stainless steel appliances include a double oven range, a quiet three-rack dishwasher, and a French door refrigerator. The adjoining great room comes equipped with a cozy pellet stove for crisp autumn nights and opens to a back deck perfect for relaxing.  Upstairs, the sprawling primary suite serves as a true sanctuary, featuring an impressive 18x8 walk-in closet and a spa-like ensuite bath complete with a jetted soaking tub, tiled shower, linen closet, and separate water closet. Two additional large bedrooms-each equipped with walk-in closets-share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, and a convenient laundry closet completes the upper floor. The lower level offers an oversized one-car garage over 30 feet deep, along with a finished basement family room, dedicated storage space, and a three-piece rough-in bath ready for completion.  Mechanically superior, the home is equipped with a high-yield well, dual-zone HVAC, a whole-house water filtration system, energy/water-efficient fixtures, and available Xfinity high-speed internet. Outside, enjoy low-maintenance living with no monthly water or septic bills and approximate annual road maintenance of $350. Residents gain private access to the Shenandoah River for tubing, kayaking, and canoeing, alongside proximity to Cool Spring paved trails, the Appalachian Trail, local wineries and breweries. Commuting is a breeze with quick access to Route 7. Note: Some photos are virtual staging. The home is vacant and MOVE in ready.  Owner has a .25 acre lot nearby that could be purchased separately for additional parking or recreation.
