This 196-acre estate is located at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in one of the most picturesque and desirable portions of Central Virginia. It offers an attractive blend of well defined elevations with breathtaking year round views, 5 spring fed creeks and over 90-acres of fenced pasture. The home is in need of renovation, but is embedded in history and has been in the same family from 1919 to present. The property is close to the junction of the Little Piney and Big Piney Rivers at the Nelson-Amherst County lines, and near the many attractions in the area surrounding Nellysford, VA. Its just 45-minutes to Charlottesville and 30-minutes to the up-and-coming downtown Lynchburg.
From Rt 778, Lowesville Rd turn onto Dug Hill Rd and the Foothill Rd will be on your right.
