A long driveway winds through mature hardwoods to the Colonial-style home, creating a private setting convenient to Montpelier, Ashland, Short Pump and Interstate 64. The acreage is the cornerstone of the opportunity, offering mature timber and flexibility for trails, recreation, gardens, equipment or future enhancements subject to applicable approvals. Inside, the existing floor plan provides a strong starting point for renovation. Generously sized rooms, hardwood flooring and a large family room with masonry fireplace offer features worth preserving. The eat-in kitchen includes a center peninsula and bay window, while the oversized bedrooms add practical appeal. The primary suite is already configured with a private bath and walk-in closet.

For an investor, contractor or value-focused buyer, the combination of land, square footage, existing improvements and location supports several possible strategies: renovate for resale, improve and hold as a long-term rental, create a private country estate or preserve the property as a long-term land investment. Property is being sold strictly AS-IS. Seller will make no repairs. Buyers should complete any inspections, feasibility studies and due diligence they consider necessary for informational purposes.
