Fincastle, VA 24090

The kind of property that changes your pace the moment you arrive, where mornings begin with fog rising off the creek, evenings end under painted sunsets, and the noise of everyday life feels pleasantly far away. Set on 35.474 acres in the rolling countryside of Botetourt County, this custom-built home offers nearly 3,900 finished square feet surrounded by open hay fields, mature hardwoods, winding trails, abundant wildlife, and scenic views in every direction. Owners designed their home with a view from every window. Sunrise on the front porch & sunsets on the back. A spring-fed pond, flowing year-round creek, fenced pasture, and thoughtfully maintained land create a setting that feels equal parts homestead, retreat, and hidden escape. Well-established trails meander through the woods, inviting peaceful walks, birdwatching, nature therapy, and quiet moments beneath the trees. Deer, turkey, and other native wildlife are frequent visitors, while the blend of open pasture, wooded acreage, and reliable water sources offers endless possibilities for gardening, livestock, recreation, or a more self-sufficient way of life.

Built by Bowman Construction for the original owners in 2003, the home was designed to feel welcoming, functional, and deeply connected to the landscape around it. The main level features a spacious primary suite, study/office, music room, gas fireplace, hardwood flooring, 9-foot ceilings, central vacuum system, and inviting gathering spaces that flow easily from room to room. Upstairs offers additional bedrooms and full bath, while the finished walkout lower level provides remarkable flexibility with a second kitchen, full bath, family room, office or bedroom space, built-in bookcases, and private exterior access ideal for guests, extended family, or rental potential.

Outside, every corner of the property invites exploration -- from the flagstone patio with outdoor fireplace to the raised garden beds, fenced livestock area, and mowed pathways that wander through fields and forest. The two-story barn with separate electric service, chicken coop, storage shed, secondary farm access, paved driveway, attached garage, and whole-house Generac generator add practicality without taking away from the property's sense of quiet charm. Private and peaceful, yet conveniently located near I-81, Route 11, Route 220, and downtown Roanoke, this is the kind of place that feels a little harder to leave each time you pull away.
