21185 ST LOUIS ROAD, MIDDLEBURG, VA 20117

$1,825,000

Named for the lovely specimen Magnolia tree anchoring the front garden, Magnolia Cottage is a rare offering: a fully transformed turnkey country home within minutes of Middleburg. Over the past 18 months, this handsome property has undergone a comprehensive renovation, inside and out, with every detail thoughtfully considered and beautifully… Read More executed. Four-board fencing encloses the front paddock, welcoming you into the widened driveway with additional parking. A new stone walkway leads to the rebuilt front porch with round columns, stone steps, and a wrought iron handrail. The stately new wood-and-glass door, richly stained and sealed, is framed by elegant sidelights. Fresh exterior paint and a new 50-year architectural shingle roof complete a picture of lasting curb appeal. Inside, the home flows beautifully. Wood flooring now runs seamlessly throughout the main level and all upper bedrooms, replacing carpet and tile for a cohesive, refined aesthetic. Solid wood interior doors with Baldwin hardware lend quiet quality to every room. Unnecessary doors were removed to open the floor plan, with trim and thresholds carefully finished throughout. The kitchen was refreshed with new wood flooring to match adjoining spaces and outfitted with a full suite of stainless-steel Bosch appliances. A newly created mudroom and home office adjoin the laundry, kitchen, and garage - a practical, well-organized hub for daily life. The laundry room itself was relocated and enclosed for privacy, with access from the mudroom. From the mudroom, stairs lead to the private office and half bath, which is over the garage. A separate outside stairway offers additional access to this office. On the main level, adjacent to the music room, a newly added sunroom (178 sq. ft.) with its own mini-split system offers year-round enjoyment. This is a wonderful addition which ties the front porch to the side and back deck. The second level of the home now features hardwood flooring throughout and the primary bedroom received special attention: crown molding was added, walls painted in warm White Duck below the molding, and lovely French doors bring light and character to the space. The front bedroom is currently set up as a beautiful dressing room; however, it can easily be returned to a bedroom. The lower level features a refurbished gas fireplace, new engineered flooring, and auxiliary baseboard heat. A private entrance, and a separate patio with direct pool access make this level ideal for guests or extended family. The pool has been fully refreshed: converted to saltwater, fitted with all-new equipment, and surrounded by a resurfaced deck with new plantings. A gazebo anchors the pool area, and an expanded deck with a second stairway creates seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Additional electrical was also added. Horse properties are rarely this move-in ready. A Farm Conservation Permit grants permission in perpetuity to keep horses on the property. Three acres are enclosed with high-quality four-board fencing, freshly painted with two coats of black oil-based paint, complete with gates. A round pen is in place for exercising. The barn-style auxiliary building - freshly painted with a second-level storage loft - is ideal for equipment, vehicles, or storage. The grounds received the same careful attention: all walkways and patios were releveled and re-laid, the driveway widened with extra parking added, and an 11-tree apple orchard of mixed varieties planted. New specimen trees and gardens surround the home. An invisible fence protects pets, and a hardwired dusk-to-dawn light illuminates the driveway entrance. A manual generator connects directly to the underground propane tank for peace of mind. Two chair lifts have been recently installed and may remain or be removed prior to settlement at the buyer's preference. Read Less
