$229,000

A Piece of History Waiting to Be Restored Step back in time with this charming piece of Virginia history, nestled on 3.5 acres in a peaceful hollow just 2.5 miles from I-66 - no winding mountain roads required. Originally built in the 1800s, this two-bedroom home was once part of… Read More the historic Piedmont Orchard, providing housing for the orchard's workers during its operation. That history tells you something: this land was chosen for good reason. The original structure features what appears to be chestnut construction and an original stone chimney, with a more recent addition expanding the living space. If rehabbed, the home will require substantial work, but the history and character here is simply irreplaceable. The property sits on a gentle south-facing slope, offering wonderful sun exposure and natural beauty year-round. A professionally installed 8-foot garden enclosure - fenced above and below grade - is already in place and ready for the next steward of this land. The garden area is already amended and was used recently for bio dynamic farming. A 2-bedroom septic system installed in 1986 is already in place, and the property currently draws water from an on-site cistern/spring. The exterior features stucco finish with a metal roof. Nature truly abounds here. Native plants and wildflowers carpet the property, and wildlife is a constant companion. Bird lovers will be delighted - as of this listing, migrating warblers are actively making their presence known on the property, a testament to the rich natural habitat this land provides. For the person who lives for nature, this is your place. Just a stone's throw from the Appalachian Trail - accessible via private property along Piedmont Orchard Road - this location puts you at the doorstep of some of Virginia's finest outdoor experiences. And when you're ready to venture out, you're perfectly positioned to enjoy everything the region has to offer: the charming shops and restaurants of Front Royal, world-class wineries and cideries, historic orchards, and the breathtaking countryside of Warren, Rappahannock, and Fauquier counties. This corner of Virginia truly has it all. The home will require major rehabilitation or a full rebuild and is being sold strictly as-is. But the location, the history, the land, and the infrastructure head start make this a genuine opportunity for the right buyer with the vision to bring it back to life. Prospective buyers, agents, and contractors must sign a Hold Harmless Agreement prior to accessing the property. Please contact the listing agent before scheduling. Property also listed as land. All inspections and studies at buyer's expense. Read Less
