Time to Wine Down
Afton, VA
Time to Wine Down in Monticello Wine Country
Welcome to Time to Wine Down—a cozy, character-filled retreat in the heart of Virginia’s famed Wine & Brew Trail. Set on two private acres just minutes from Afton’s top wineries and breweries, this 1959 ranch cottage blends mid-century charm with modern comforts, creating the perfect home base for exploring, sipping, and unwinding.
Inside, the home’s layout is designed with gathering in mind. Four bedrooms and a bonus bunk room comfortably host up to 10 guests, making this spot ideal for families, couples, and groups of friends. Each bedroom feels equally inviting—three with queen beds, two with twin setups, and a playful bonus room perfect for kids or extra guests. There’s no master suite here; instead, everyone enjoys the relaxed simplicity of this welcoming home.
The main living room is cozy and sun-filled, while downstairs, the basement offers space for fun and connection. Challenge your crew to a game of air hockey, work on a puzzle, or pour a glass of wine and settle in for a laid-back movie night. Outside, the oversized patio and fire pit area will quickly become your favorite hangout, with string lights overhead, plenty of seating, and a large table for shared meals and late-night conversations. There’s even a wine cooler in the kitchen, ready to chill your latest vineyard finds.
In the mornings, sip coffee to the soundtrack of nearby farm life—you might hear roosters from the farm down the road or spot horses grazing nearby. During the day, head out to explore local favorites like Veritas, Hazy Mountain, and Afton Mountain Vineyards, all within a few miles. For adventure seekers, Shenandoah National Park, the Blue Ridge Tunnel, and Wintergreen Resort offer hiking, skiing, tubing, and mountain biking.
Best of all, Time to Wine Down is pet-friendly, so your pups can join the fun too. With thoughtful touches like a fully stocked kitchen, high-speed Wi-Fi, and cozy spaces to gather both indoors and out, this home makes relaxing easy.
At Time to Wine Down, life moves a little slower. Whether you’re toasting around the fire pit, tasting your way down Route 151, or exploring the mountains, your next Virginia adventure begins here.
