About 447 John Baker Road
Peace, privacy, open land and star-filled mountain nights, all just approximately 20 minutes from Downtown West Jefferson! Set on 6.93 UNRESTRICTED, mostly flat acres, this immaculate 3BR/2BA home offers a wonderfully quiet setting without putting you far from town. Surrounded by pasture and mountain scenery with low light pollution, this is a place where you can enjoy peaceful mornings, beautiful scenery and wonderful stargazing right from home.
Inside, pride of ownership is immediately apparent. Fresh paint throughout makes the home feel bright, clean and move-in ready. The dine-in kitchen flows naturally into the large living area, where HUGE windows fill the space with natural light and turn the surrounding pasture and mountain views into part of the room. The front deck extends the living space outdoors and gives you plenty of room to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the quiet. Around back, a covered porch and mudroom create a convenient everyday entrance with additional sheltered space.
And then there is the WORKSHOP/GARAGE! Measuring an impressive 36' x 20', this 720 sq. ft. heated workspace offers serious room for woodworking, mechanical projects, hobbies, equipment, recreational gear or whatever you have been wishing you had space to do. An adjacent 20' x 11' storage shed adds another 220 sq. ft. for tools, lawn equipment and overflow storage. Additionally, there is a 8'x10' vented plexiglass greenhouse for all your "green thumb" projects throughout the year. There is even a fenced dog lot with its own doggie shed for the four-legged members of the household.
The nearly seven acres are mostly level and usable, a combination that opens the door to so many possibilities. With no restrictions, there is room to garden, keep animals, create additional outdoor spaces, spread out and enjoy the land, or simply preserve the open setting around you. Short-term rentals are allowed, providing additional flexibility for full-time, part-time or investment use.
When adventure calls, a New River public access point is just a short drive away for kayaking and canoeing. When dinner, shopping or a day in town calls, Downtown West Jefferson is approximately 20 minutes away. At night, come home to quiet roads, dark skies and a front-row seat to the stars.
Metal roof installed in 2019 and septic pumped in 2024. Immaculately maintained, exceptionally versatile and surrounded by the peace of the mountains, this property offers something increasingly hard to find: usable unrestricted acreage, substantial workspace, beautiful surroundings and convenient access to town, all in one package.
