It’s not often you hear about a historic property that is truly intended for a wine connoisseur, but 18035 Raven Rocks Rd. in Bluemont is just that place. Situated on 6.53 acres, this property includes a restored 1893 fieldstone home with its own boutique winery, vineyard, and tasting room, plus a little stone guest cottage. The Clarke County estate is on the market for $2.15 million.
The main house, built in 1893, blends historic charm with modern amenities.
Once known as the Twin Oak Tavern, it served as an inn for Washington, DC, visitors traveling by train to the countryside. The current owner fully restored the three-bedroom, four-bath house in 1998.

The open dining and living rooms feature beamed ceilings and millwork, keeping with the home’s original architectural beauty. The dining room has French doors that open to the kitchen.
