A once-in-a-generation opportunity to own an extraordinary piece of Southwest Virginia mountain paradise where the Virginia Creeper Trail and the South Fork of the Holston River meet on approximately 45 acres of rolling farmland, wooded beauty, and breathtaking long-range mountain views. Located roughly midway between historic downtown Abingdon and Damascus - "The Friendliest Town on the Appalachian Trail" - this remarkable property offers a rare blend of recreation, income potential, event space, agricultural opportunity, and future development possibilities. The Virginia Creeper Trail transects the property, creating exceptional potential for tourism-related ventures, while river frontage along the South Fork of the Holston provides direct access to kayaking, trout fishing, and peaceful riverside enjoyment. Much of the land features gorgeous rolling hay fields with sweeping views toward Whitetop Mountain and Mount Rogers, while wooded sections provide privacy, wildlife habitat, and additional recreational opportunities. Jefferson National Forest is only a short distance away, placing hiking, biking, fishing, hunting, and outdoor adventure at your fingertips. Since purchasing the property, the current owners have made extensive improvements. The doublewide home has been tastefully remodeled and successfully utilized as an Airbnb/rental property. The historic farmhouse has been structurally improved and gutted, creating a blank canvas for restoration into a residence, trail-side store, caf, outfitters shop, gallery, or event venue. One of the barns has operated as an event venue, and additional improvements include a professional greenhouse plus utilities extended to the upper barn area, including water, electricity, and septic infrastructure. There is also ample room for RV parking and possible RV hookups, opening the door to campground or glamping possibilities. Whether your vision includes farming, equestrian use, hospitality, recreation, event operations,
