“Paris from Above”. Opportunity to own a legacy property with conservation easement potential--notably this is the gateway to the Paris Valley. Enjoy unimaginable, far-reaching views from above the historic hamlet of Paris, Virginia . This offering includes two parcels, 26.38 acres +/- in all which can be divided and arranged into 4 future parcels by right. Across the stunning hillside meadows there are plenty of enchanting building sites for your new home. Mature trees, rubble stone walls and abundant wildlife are found here. The property, located west of Middleburg and Upperville, is easy to access from multiple directions. Perfectly poised for the construction of your dream home(s)or pursuit of an agribusiness. As a single unit, the acreage represents an unparalleled situation to create a one-of-a-kind country home or hunter's wildlife paradise, enjoying vantage point views like no other. Perfect for family compound. Good soil, south facing slopes and siting make this an attractive location for vineyards. Located at the landmark intersection of John S. Mosby Highway (Route 50) and Route 17, the location is strategic for a farm winery, farm brewery or other agribusiness. The property has extensive frontage on U.S. Route 50 with several entrance points. The land has been sensitively maintained to support the mature trees and planted in 2021 with a custom blend pasture grass. This offering is in two deeded parcels with multiple divisions by-right. The property is open to your ideas and dreams. The 6 acre parcel has one building right. The other 20+/-acre parcel has 3 division rights. The property is improved by a professionally engineered road leading to a well disguised Verizon “monopine” at the peak of the parcel. (NOTE to cell tower leasing agents: Verizon cell tower exists as a perpetual easement; there is no tower lease. So, pls do not phone listing agent seeking to acquire lease.) The ease with which these parcels can be developed may be parlayed into a valuable opportunity for conservation easement tax advantages. The property is situated amidst a variety of protected, conserved lands which contribute to its conservation value. Piedmont Environmental Council and Virginia Outdoors Foundation easements protect over 1,500 acres in the area. Sky Meadows State Park of 1,826 acres and the G.
