Travel west of Winchester through rolling green hills to an area in Frederick County that was once part of Merryman Farm. This tour features four private properties, conveniently situated off Merriman’s Lane. Each home has been renovated at some point, adding beautiful features and practical updates. The homes sit on large acres in peaceful, rural settings. Enjoy stunning pools, charming gardens, unique homeowner collections, fine millwork, a caboose repurposed as a pool house, and even a herd of Longhorn cattle. Visitors to this charming part of Virginia will also appreciate farmers’ markets, historic battlefields, excellent restaurants, and the gardens of the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley, the tour headquarters, where admission is free with a tour ticket.
