We are excited to reintroduce this stunning Virginia mountain estate to the market. (Previous Buyer backed out due to personal reasons.) Discover the pinnacle of luxury and privacy in this stunning 27+ acre estate, the highest home in Virginia. The home is surrounded by 360 degree views of the Blue Ridge & Allegheny Mountains. “Higher Ground” is just 20 minutes from the Omni Homestead Resort and about a mile from the Hot Springs airport with a 5600-foot airstrip (currently being renovated). This elegant property features 8 bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, and 10,300 square feet of living space. Enjoy breathtaking Mountain Views from nearly every room, and unforgettable sunsets from the terraces. Outdoor amenities include a heated pool, and skeet shooting range, while the property offers ultimate privacy surrounded by thousands of protected acres of the state park and the Nature Conservancy. A 2024 elevator, Authentic Finnish Harvia Sauna, first level in-law suite, 5 custom mahogany doors, and a 3-car garage add to the luxury. Higher Ground Custom Estate is ideal for families, executives, private jet owners, and those seeking a truly private retreat. The estate's location in Hot Springs, VA, offers a wealth of activities at the Omni Homestead Resort including skiing, 2 championship golf courses, trails, and natural hot springs for relaxation and discovered in the 1700s. The property has been impeccably maintained by a Caretaker Couple, who would be interested in staying on should the buyers be interested.
