Relax by the firepit, soak in the hot tub, or gather around the spacious kitchen after a day of exploring. This well-appointed home is ideal for couples, families, or friends seeking comfort and quiet in Virginia’s wine and mountain country—just minutes from Afton’s best trails and tasting rooms. You'll be interacting via TEXT directly with the owners, but not in person unless needed. The neighborhood is quiet and across from a local horse farm. 0.9 miles to Veritas, and ELEVEN wineries/breweries/distilleries within 5 miles! 15 mins to Humpback Rocks and Jack Albright Loop (plane crash site!). 1.5 miles to Afton Tunnel! There are two keypad entry doors to the property. Welcome to Cheval Circle—a charming getaway nestled in the heart of Afton, VA. The name "Cheval" comes from the French word for horse, inspired by Mimi’s beautiful nearby horses and the home where Scott’s family grew up. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be captivated by the breathtaking mountain views from the front porch—a perfect spot for your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. For an unforgettable experience, check out our complimentary online guidebook, which includes details on how to book a horseback riding adventure!

"I haven’t been everywhere, but it's on my list." – Susan Sontag The property is easily accessible by car and contains five parking spaces. Ask us about private winery tour options through local car companies! If you’re looking to accommodate a larger property, we have four other listings on this street. Note on Country Living & Pest Control Our homes are located in the beautiful Virginia countryside, where you’ll enjoy fresh air, mountain views, and peaceful surroundings. With this setting comes the reality of nature—including the occasional visit from local insects. We are proactive about pest control and maintain a quarterly professional spray plan, with several additional treatments scheduled throughout the year at every property. While this greatly reduces activity, it’s not possible to eliminate every bug entirely, especially during certain seasons. Thank you for understanding that a few sightings are a natural part of staying in a rural area—and part of the charm of being surrounded by nature! ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet -
