Welcome to this patch of serenity on the river's edge, to this hideaway.
Shepherdstown, West Virginia, United States
Welcome to this patch of serenity on the river's edge, to this hideaway.brbrTake a seat. Decompress a moment. Take note of the expanse at your purview. This is your temporary home. This is your reprieve from the pin numbers, passwords, online postings, news alerts and the 24/7 world that so consumes us.brbrHere you will find a home that touts all the modern conveniences while ensconced in another time, a slower time, a time of reflection if you are so inclined.brbrThe spacebrbrHere you will find three bedrooms that sleep six, two full bathrooms, a kitchen, a flat-screen television, wi-fi and the gorgeous views of the Potomac River, which divides West Virginia from Maryland on the opposite shore.brbrHere you will find a home that touts all the modern conveniences while ensconced in another time, a slower time, a time of reflection if you are so inclined.brbrThere is a grill, if grilling is your forte. There is a deck that requires nothing more than your presence.brbrThis stretch of the river lures all kind of water enthusiasts: kayakers, canoers, bird-watchers, photographers, Civil War aficionados and anglers seeking to land a good-sized walleye.brbrMany of your water-related needs can be met at Shepherdstown Pedal & Paddle on German Street, the principal thoroughfare in town. brbrThere are plenty of hiking trails around Knott Road. Nothing puts you at one with Mother Nature more than the quiet and solitude of the untouched forests that envelop the area. Many are as they were in the early 1860s, when the Yankees lined the far shore and the Rebels the one that beckoned you.brbrOtherwise, please enjoy your time in this idyllic setting.brbrGuest accessbrbrThe entire house, front and back patios, front yard, and water access to the Potomac River.brbrOther things to notebrbrThat rooster you sometimes hear crowing is in charge of the neighborhood watch group, although his calls are mostly directed to the flock of hens that responds to his reports of finding a trove of yummy bugs or the occasional predator. And, my, how the flock loves bits of bread.brbrWe have a security camera mounted on the front of our deck. The coverage area includes our driveway, lower steps, and front yard. It is not our aim to invade your privacy.
