Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Abingdon, Virginia

Artists write about it, some paint it, others sing about itthe constantly moving hypnotic essence of a river, its healing properties & the adventures one provides. This impressive home with its chalet-type atmosphere gives you all of that & more with its 993' of river frontage on the North Fork of the Holston River-recognized as one of the best small mouth bass streams west of the New River. Imagine floating down the currents, fishing from its banks or simply meditating while listening to the calming flow of water from your own primary bedroom. Whether you want to make this your full-time residence or just a vacation retreat you can relax knowing that, if needed, you can "live off the grid". With a 260' spring-fed well, 20kw Generac generator, 500 gallon propane tank, & 31 acres of forest, you're ready! And that's just some of the basics. The wrap around deck (featuring multi-level sitting areas-one with a hot tub) from which to view the river and beautiful mountain ranges, oversized (drive through) garage & circular drive, concrete driveway with drainage ports, & 14 x 14 outbuilding which houses 2 potting stations (with granite counter tops) highlight the exterior. And the lovely interior showcases 4 large bedrooms and 3.5 baths; two gas fireplaces with stone surround; hardwood, marble, black granite & ceramic tile flooring; designer lighting fixtures (the chandelier in the staircase was featured in Architectural Digest); lunette transom windows; cast-iron fire back wall features & other subtle design-focused elements.
