3 BUCK MOUNTAIN RD Earlysville, VA 22936

Some homes are admired on the page—this one is felt the moment you step inside. This classic Craftsman bungalow, celebrated by Garden & Gun & Southern Living, blends architectural soul w/ modern livability.The main residence honors its era while embracing thoughtful upgrades: Brazilian soapstone kitchen counters, energy-efficient geothermal heating and cooling, two newly renovated baths, and storage that far exceeds expectations for a home of this vintage. Original hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves, and a wood-burning fireplace ground the space in warmth and authenticity, while restoration choices respect the home's historic character w/o sacrificing comfort. Just beyond the main house, a custom-built former artist studio stands as a destination of its own. Vaulted ceilings w/ exposed timber beams, abundant natural light, and a sleeping loft create a striking, flexible retreat. Complete w/ full bath & kitchenette, the space easily serves as guest quarters, creative haven, or an income-generating homestay. Outside, 2.4 acres of mature landscaping offer privacy, seasonal beauty, and a series of usable outdoor spaces. This is a property shaped by vision and craft. The bones are solid, the renovations contemporary.
