Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Virginia and Stephen
We are a husband and wife team with many years of experience in remodeling homes and spaces, building, and property management. We are excited to share our 26 acres of nature with water views and access to anyone that wants a true getaway. We built The Tiny Red Barn in 2021. It provides the perfect location for resetting and refreshing. We look forward to your visit.
Why they chose this property
In 2013 we decided to leave NYC after Stephens lifelong residency, to come to Virginia to get away from the stress of the big apple. We set out to tour many rural areas in search of a perfect location to build an Arts and Crafts home. We arrived at this property and took the long walk from the street to the waterfront. It was winter. As we walked over the hill, we were able to see hundreds of geese sitting on the layer of ice that had covered the reservoir. Moments later they heard us, lifted off the ice in unison and flew overhead chattering like a beautiful chorus of nature. Yep, that was it. To have this scene knowing there was much more to come, we found our forever home. For us it's the ultimate water-view that will never threaten our home.
What makes this property unique
Note: We are a semi rural location, but just 15 minutes from anything you could need. Interstate, grocery, restaurants etc.
