178 Holiday Ln, Whitetop, VA, 24292
About This Home
The Highest Private Ground in Virginia. Mount Rogers may be Virginia's tallest peak — but no one can own it. At over 5,000 feet in the Whitetop community, this is of the highest privately held properties in the Commonwealth, and every sunrise reminds you why. Step onto either of two private decks and look out over unbroken ridgelines fading into blue — the same views that draw thousands to the Appalachian Trail and Virginia Creeper Trail, both minutes from your door. The Jefferson National Forest borders the community, and nearby streams offer some of Virginia's best trout fishing. Your nearest neighbors are black bear, wild turkey, and elk. Nearly 3.6 acres surround a thoughtfully designed bungalow with living on two full levels. The upper level features an open great room with hardwood floors, granite countertops, and a master suite with private bath — all oriented to capture the views. The lower level offers a second bedroom, full bath, flexible space for a studio or office, plus laundry. Both levels open to their own deck. A Cummins whole-home automatic generator backed by dual propane tanks ensures seamless power with no interruptions. Starlink satellite internet delivers high-speed connectivity at summit elevation — remote work, streaming, and video calls are effortless. Off-the-grid beauty with on-the-grid reliability. This is the rooftop of Virginia. Properties at this elevation with this access and infrastructure simply do not come to market often. When they do, they don't wait.
