Property Description

Discover a rare opportunity to own a property steeped in history and rich with agricultural potential, set along scenic Mountain View Road. Spanning 233 acres, this remarkable estate offers both heritage and versatility, making it ideal for restoration, recreation, or working farm use. At its heart is a historic home built in 1790, once used as a Civil War hospital for both Union and Confederate troops. While filled with character, the home is not registered with the National Park Service—allowing complete freedom to restore, renovate, or reimagine the space to suit your vision. The layout offers the potential for four bedrooms and two bathrooms (including a rough-in), and features HVAC, running water, and a working toilet, with the washer and dryer conveniently located on the main level. The adjacent lot features a Verizon cell tower, ensuring strong signal coverage, and approximately $50,000 in USDA-approved upgrades are ready to be completed. Two wells support the property—one dedicated to the home, the other for agricultural use—and a peaceful pond adds charm to the backyard landscape. The land itself is a true standout. Enrolled in the PDR program with a 3-lot perk, the farm includes 12 fully fenced paddocks with electric fencing and waterers, professionally installed by John Marshall in 2022. The fencing, which spans approximately one mile, also creates a continuous riding trail around the property. A dedicated fence road, wide enough for truck access, makes it easy to maintain fencing and monitor pasture health. The land was fully timbered in 2021, offering future timber value. A 3-stall barn and a secondary barn currently functioning as a nursery with stalls provide flexibility for equestrian or livestock use. Infrastructure is in place for a potential 100x200 riding arena, and the property supports a winter strip grazing setup. A 200-amp electrical breaker supports the farm’s operations, and over $200,000 has been invested in high-quality fencing. (Buyers are responsible for maintaining the fencing or paying a pro-rated maintenance fee.) Whether you’re envisioning a working farm, a private estate, or a unique historic restoration, this exceptional property offers endless possibilities—past, present, and future.
