Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Dillwyn, Virginia
155 Roachs Ln, Dillwyn, VA 23936
Bring your vision to this circa-1880 farmhouse on 10.97 acres with an open lawn, mature shade trees, and a mix of hardwoods and softwoods. The house needs substantial renovation and offers several possibilities to explore: restore it as a full-time residence, adapt it as a rustic hunting retreat, or investigate replacing it with a new home, subject to applicable approvals. Electricity and running water are present, and some electrical wiring has been installed, but work remains unfinished and the bathrooms require complete renovation. A storage shed with a wood floor and a separate well pump house sit near the home. At the rear, the wooded terrain drops steeply toward the Slate River. The property is reported to extend slightly beyond the river, but no survey is available; buyers should verify boundaries and river frontage. Approximately 6 miles-about a 10-minute drive-to Dillwyn and 10 miles-about 15 minutes-to Scottsville, with public James River boat access in downtown Scottsville for paddling and fishing. An opportunity for a buyer prepared to take on a significant project and explore the potential of both the house and land. Property is also listed under LAND as 0 Roachs Ln, MLS #681701.
