Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Charlottesville, Virginia
1435 Arrowhead Valley Rd, Charlottesville, VA 22903
53+ private acres climbing to your own mountaintop in Albemarle County, just a few short minutes south of the City limits of Charlottesville. From a sunny, open lawn at the road, a wooded trail winds up the hillside to Buzzard Rock, a granite summit where beautiful mountain views peek through the trees. Selective clearing could open up truly dramatic long-range vistas, and the land offers potential for a second homesite to take full advantage of them. The 1940 farmhouse is full of character, with a wood stove in the living room, hardwood floors, a main-level bedroom, and cozy upstairs bedrooms tucked under the eaves. The dining room opens to a large rear deck overlooking the woods, and a covered front porch looks out over the front yard. Whole-house generator, 7 gallon a minute well and septic sized for 3 bedrooms. Several outbuildings offer plenty of storage. The home is ready for your updates, or enjoy it as a weekend retreat from the City, hunting cabin, or guest cottage while you plan your dream home on the mountain. Just 5 minutes to the City limits, 10 minutes to UVA, 15 minutes to downtown Charlottesville and all of its amenities, and right next door to Potter's Craft Cider! Don't miss this rare opportunity!
