About 8579 Opal Rd

Locals in Historic Warrenton know this iconic home as the “yellow house on the hill.” From the time you drive up the circular driveway, you are mesmerized and captivated by this stately light-filled 1889 Victorian estate! This timeless beauty is situated so prevalently on its own hillside which has stood the test of time! WELCOME HOME... This magnificent historical footprint boasts of 6 beautifully appointed grand bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms. Although this impeccable home went through its major renovations in 1982, there was an addition built in the 1990's where there is a full unfinished basement accessible from the master bedroom. There is also an accessible crawl space on the older portion of the home. Beautiful restoration and renovations continued to its glorious state offering all the elegance of the modern 21st century without sacrificing the historical 19th century era. From this welcoming covered front porch, the newly replaced roof (2024) and copper gutters span the length of the heart of this home. Ninety percent of the exterior wood has been replaced with a 10 year warranty on the paint. Strong Victorian accents, to the deep rich double oak doors with inlaid custom stained glass, you can't help but feel the excitement
