Summary:
Luxurious and spacious, this home offers views of the famous Humpback Rocks ridges, from just about every room. Sip a brew from a rocking chair on the upstairs balcony, wake up to burnt umber tinted ridges outside the primary bedrooms, or enjoy a soak in the hot tub or cigar by the firepit.
The Space:
"Plume" is a 4-season property about 30 minutes from Charlottesville, Virginia and about 15 minutes from the Rockfish Gap entrance to Shenandoah National Park and the famous Humpback Rock on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Even in the winter, enjoy skiing and snow tubing at nearby Wintergreen Mountain Resort and hiking at dozens of nearby trails. Then come back for a soak in our hot tub with Blue Ridge views.
