Frog Hill is the ultimate country retreat. A cozy house, dramatic views, your own river to explore, and complete privacy. Frog Hill has all this and more. Barns for hobbies or livestock, garden areas to cultivate, and miles of trails to meander while enjoying the views and river frontage. From every vantage point there is a masterpiece of nature to drink in. Inside you can sit beside the cozy woodstove and watch the snow fall over the mountains in winter, or sit on the back porch to enjoy the summer breezes while the sun sets. Residence Built in the 1980s by accomplished woodworker, the house sits nestled amongst gardens and barn and two small outbuildings. The simple structure is solidly built and features a soaring two story post and beam living room. French doors lead to a patio with views. The back porch also has excellent views. The house has an efficiently engineered metal roof and cedar shake siding for low maintenance. Lawns around the house are planted with specimen trees. Spring bulbs (primarily daffodils) are underplanted along the house and at various focal points nearby. There is a fenced kitchen garden with small garden shed with greenhouse attachment for potting and tool storage. Specimen trees and shrubs surround the garden areas. Open fields below the house afford 180 degree views of the Blue Ridge mountains from the Cobbler Mountains to the north to Mary’s Rock to the south. There are outstanding and very private pastoral and mountain views in every direction. Approximately 10 acres of open fields (no fencing) dotted with dogwoods lead down to woodlands that cascade down to the river. Trails cut through the woods down to the river and to various granite cliffs above the river. River frontage on the Rappahannock is nearly a mile in length. The river frontage is an intensely private mix of swimming holes, granite cliffs, and gentle sandy bottomed river. The river provides excellent fishing and is stocked by VA Fish and Wildlife. Woodlands are a mix of tulip poplars (predominating), oak, hickory, virginia pine, dogwoods and redbuds. A finer mix of views, river and privacy cannot be found anywhere else.

This unique design by local architect James Hricko combines contemporary & rustic elements creating a modern cottage style home. Custom built in 2002, the “Silo House” was designed to evoke the barn and silo that once stood on this site and to nurture a passion for horses. Reminiscent of the way homes and barns were designed in early America or colder climates in Europe, the barn attaches to the main house. Thus, it is wonderfully easy to comfortably check on equine friends, even in the worst weather. The house was carefully designed to blend naturally in its setting, among gently rolling fields, and placed purposefully, so that horses in their pastures are always in view. The siding is comprised of natural cedar shingles, with tongue & groove vertical boards on the silo, and painted in “Wedgewood Blue”, a luxurious shade that is both serene and delightful. Inside, cool gray flooring, white walls, and clean lines exude a peaceful “zen-like” energy. The family room is warmed by a wood burning fireplace with rustic wood mantel and beams, which were salvaged from the old barn that once stood on the site. Throughout the home, sunlight spills in through an abundance of windows and glass doors, and gorgeous pastoral views are enjoyed from every room. The round silo provides a unique space perfect for a cozy “lounge” on the main level and an invigorating office space upstairs. Thoughtfully planned to make horse keeping as care-free as possible, the well-ventilated and well-lit barn is comfortable for both horse & human, with a heated & cooled tack room, three 12x12 matted stalls, a luxurious wash stall and plenty of hay storage. There are 3 board-fenced paddocks with run-in sheds, 2 of which have automatic waterers and all three have spigots by them. A circular drive makes trailering a breeze, and there is ample parking for trucks and farm equipment. Last, but not least, a Generac generator is waiting to save the day if the power goes out. Located in Hume, one of the most scenic and protected parts of Fauquier County, it is an easy drive to the town of Marshall for groceries, or to grab a sandwich at the world-famous Red Truck Bakery. With access to a variety of options for high-speed internet, it is feasible to work successfully from home. For those who must commute to the city, route 66 is just a 10 minute drive, with Wegmans and the shopping meccas of Gainesville and Haymarket along the way. The current owner has invested over $120,000 in improvements since they purchased the home, and it shows! To fully appreciate this truly “one of a kind” equestrian property, you will want to schedule a personal tour. Please ask for a detailed brochure, with 3D Tour, Floor Plans and a long list of improvements.
