Ranch/Rambler, Cabin/Lodge

A meticulously crafted modern getaway nestled in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, Ember Haus offers an exceptional blend of contemporary design, high-end finishes, and outdoor charm — already proven as a top-tier short-term rental with outstanding guest reviews. Newly built and Scandinavian-inspired, this thoughtfully designed home radiates light and calm from every corner. Vaulted ceilings, custom wood beams, and dramatic black pine sliding glass doors and casement windows create an airy, expansive feel that lives far larger than its footprint. The floor plan was intentionally designed for both relaxation and functionality, maximizing sight lines, natural light, and flow between spaces. The open-concept living area features a Heat & Glo SL7 propane fireplace and connects seamlessly to a modern kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, island seating, and stainless ENERGY STAR appliances including a counter-depth refrigerator, Gallery dishwasher with third rack, and Gallery slide-in electric range with convection and air fry. An LG WashTower provides energy-efficient laundry convenience. Mechanical upgrades include a Carrier 1.5-ton heat pump and Clack C-Series neutralizer with 24,000-grain water softener system. Set on 13 private acres, the property offers exceptional versatility — ideal for creating trails, recreational use, hunting (buyer to verify local regulations), or exploring potential subdivision opportunities (subject to county approval). The immediate homesite includes a fully fenced backyard, patio, and fire pit, making it equally appealing for personal enjoyment or guest experience. Located within walking distance to Lake Arrowhead Recreation Area and just minutes to Luray Caverns, downtown Luray (approximately 10 minutes), and Shenandoah National Park’s Thornton Gap entrance (approximately 12 minutes), the home offers both privacy and accessibility. Currently operating as a highly successful short-term rental with a 4.98★ average rating, this property conveys with an established reputation and future bookings in place (subject to platform transfer policies), providing immediate income continuity for the next owner. This home is more than a beautiful retreat — it is a turnkey, income-producing asset with proven demand in one of Virginia’s most desirable outdoor destinations. Furnishings negotiable.
