This beautiful property is why people come to Nelson County! The charming 3 BR, 1 BA cottage is sited on 30 gorgeous acres with mature landscaping, walking paths and a bold stream! The original part was built in 1950 with additions and remodels in the 80's and 90's. Inviting outdoor living spaces! Curl up with a book on the porch or sit on the front deck to relax and enjoy the sunshine and mountain air. Lots of attention to detail with the wood working in the house. New mini splits for heating and cooling are throughout and a woodstove sits between the living room and the kitchen. There is also a new well on the property. The property has a large workshop with lots of storage for equipment and wood. Lovely seasonal views from the top of the hill behind the house. Wonderful spot to just enjoy Mother Nature and the great energy there. One of the owner's favorite places! There is also a new graveled driveway up to the house. Perfect for a full time home, a getaway cabin or an Airbnb. Located minutes from all the breweries, wineries, cideries and distilleries on the Nelson 151 Trail and the 29 Trail. Only 30 minutes into Charlottesville! This is a real gem.
