Buy Healing Creek Farm!
We had a beautiful dream to build a homestead that functioned as a sustainability demonstration center and a wellness retreat. We built a full design team around the project, and over the course of 1 year we developed a full Permaculture design for this beautiful piece of land. However, fate has other plans for us, and due to personal reasons we are moving out of state and will no longer be able to bring this incredible project through to completion. If you are interested in owning 26 acres of pristine forest and agricultural land, and in continuing the dream of Healing Creek Farm, get in touch. You can reach us at am7lu4@gmail.com.
​
Nestled on 26.7 acres of peaceful woodland, this property offers natural beauty, comfort, and eco-friendly living. A stream winds through 1,200 feet of the land, complementing the thoughtfully designed walking paths and a cleared camping area, perfect for quiet escapes.
​
The charming main home features two bedrooms, a spacious loft, an eat-in kitchen, and a cozy living room with a wood-burning fireplace. A versatile one-room cottage—heated, cooled, and insulated—serves as a guest space, studio, or office. Fully owned solar panels reduce electricity costs and can generate income, with an extra solar generator for added resilience. Mature black walnut and pawpaw trees, along with multiple thickets of wineberry bushes, and wild blueberries provide seasonal abundance.
​
Located minutes from the Shenandoah River and near the artsy towns of Woodstock and Strasburg, this property could be ideal for a peaceful homestead, a permaculture or regenerative agriculture project or your serene and safe home. Previously used as a meditation and retreat center, it offers endless possibilities.
​
Divided into three parcels and accessible via a deeded right-of-way, this serene woodland sanctuary is just 1.5 hours from D.C., offering a rare opportunity to reconnect with nature while living sustainably.
The following is what we dreamed together as a design team. Perhaps you can be the stewards to continue this beautiful vision.
