Welcome to The Knoll of Berryville, Va., built in 1895 by Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Brougham Warde and purchased in 1905 by Judge Blackburn Smith who enhanced the structure by adding an office to the premises. This gracious and historic property will be available for private showings only. Situated on 3.38 acres on a North-South diagonal, the placement of the house allows it to be filled with sunlight throughout most of the day. As you enter the property through a majestic stone entrance, The Knoll will welcome and charm you with its loveliness. As you continue up the driveway, you will see the wonderful wrap-around porch and iconic Widow’s Porch which adorns this gorgeous Victorian home and you will know it’s truly a special place. Awaiting you inside are 7 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms and 4 working fireplaces (kitchen, living room, dining room and primary bedroom). The updated kitchen and other refinements in this home have been carefully crafted to preserve the essence of the house and to showcase the many original features still present throughout the home. Stop for a minute and appreciate the original pantry cabinets and fireplace fixtures in the kitchen, now highlighted by a gorgeous bay window overlooking the yard. The woodworking details throughout are equally magnificent. In addition to the Judge's office, now a gym, there is also a lovely Carriage House that provides ample space for a guest or rental apartment, and a one car garage with adjoining stables. The current homeowners have lovingly worked on grounds and enhanced both privacy and visual impact by adding the fencing along Route 340. There was a new asphalt roof installed in 2021, new asphalt driveway and a new furnace. It’s impossible not to fall in love as you imagine family gatherings and holidays in this timeless treasure!
