Tucked along a quiet country road in the pastoral heart of Warren County, 165 Wilson Burke Road is a rare offering that speaks to those who seek both scale and seclusion — a property where the rhythms of rural Virginia life unfold naturally, and where the land itself becomes part of the story.
Set well off Route 340 South and approached through the gentle curves of Rivermont Drive, this expansive compound — known as the Elaine R. Burke Estate, a name with deep roots in Warren County history — spans over 6,300 square feet across three distinct living environments, each thoughtfully configured to offer genuine independence without sacrificing the warmth of shared acreage.
The main residence anchors the property with four bedrooms, three and a half baths, and a layout built for gracious everyday living. A library, living room, den, and enclosed porch provide ample room to spread out, while a second kitchen off the primary suite's sitting room adds a layer of comfort and convenience rarely found in homes of any price point. A flex room upstairs extends the possibilities further — home office, studio, playroom, or guest space — whatever the next chapter calls for.
Attached seamlessly to the main home is a fully self-contained apartment — four bedrooms, two baths, its own kitchen, living room, and sun-drenched sunroom — with separate electrical service, giving this space true autonomy for extended household members, long-term tenants, or those seeking a private and independent living arrangement. And on the opposite end of the property, a third living area offers yet another private footprint: a natural fit for additional household members, guests, or buyers who recognize the value of having flexible, income-producing space already in place.
Together, the three spaces offer eight bedrooms in total — a compound designed for those who value togetherness without sacrificing independence, or the investor who recognizes that multiple income-producing units on seven private acres is an opportunity worth pausing for.
For those drawn to the intentional life, the Elaine R. Burke Estate arrives with the kind of established infrastructure that takes years — sometimes decades — to cultivate. Mature pear and cherry trees anchor the landscape alongside champagne currant bushes and established asparagus beds that return faithfully each spring. Raised garden beds and conveniently placed spigots throughout the property make working the land a pleasure rather than a chore. Multiple carports and outbuildings offer generous storage for equipment, vehicles, and the tools of country living, while open meadows and livestock-ready pastures invite grazing animals and seasonal rotations. A non-potable well serves the property's agricultural needs — irrigating gardens and pastures and supporting a self-watering station for livestock. Bordering it all, a mature forest wraps the property in natural privacy, creating a sense of seclusion that no fence or hedge could replicate.
Outside, sweeping mountain views remind you exactly why people choose the Valley — and a two-stall horse barn stands ready for those who want to bring their animals home.
This is not simply a home. It is a legacy — and it is ready for the next buyers willing to carry it forward.
