"Top of the Hill": A beautiful hunt country estate just three miles from Sperryville in the F. T. Valley among other beautiful homes and farms. ... This cape style manor offers a stunning 180 panorama from West to South of the Blue Ridge Mountains and Shenandoah National Park. Built in 1987 with solid fieldstone facade on 59 acres now in Conservation Easement (permanently reduced real estate tax assessment, no division permitted), this RARE opportunity includes a 4 stall stable with rolling fields and mountain forest with trails. ... The original driveway to the front door was abandoned when owners became elderly and required easier entry, but can be reclaimed for a beautiful approach and circular front drive. The Hazel River runs beside part of the southern boundary. ... F T Valley is named after Francis Thornton who received a grant from the King of this spectacular valley crossed by two mountain rivers (The Hazel and The Hughes). He reportedly carved his initials along the boundaries, hence the name F. T. Valley. ... An excellent offering to settle an estate.
