About 1688 Desert Rd
Set against sweeping Blue Ridge Mountain views, Rag View Farm pairs a meticulously cared-for home with productive, versatile land. Six fenced parcels of open pasture make this an ideal turnkey setup for cattle, horses, or a private country estate. The home offers a main-level primary suite, a wrap-around porch for taking in the scenery, and an attached garage with a finished office above — perfect for remote work, a studio, or a quiet retreat. Large windows and outdoor living spaces capture mountain views from nearly every vantage point on the property. The farm is outfitted with a hay barn and machine barn for equipment and feed storage, plus a large pond with two docks and a charming bridge leading to a private island — a rare, standout feature that sets this property apart. Whether you're running livestock, keeping horses, or simply want wide-open Virginia countryside with mountain views as your everyday backdrop, Rag View Farm delivers a rare blend of natural beauty, function, and comfort.
