Find a place with room for chickens, rabbits, ducks, goats, sheep, pig and maybe a milk cow. Find a place with a giant garden spot, ready for your spring planting. Find a place with a livable home that doesn't cost a fortune. Find a place with a springfed woodland stream (think pond site!) and giant hardwood trees. Find a place with a large shop/garage (24x32 with electric). Find that place in Buckingham County, Virginia only a half hour from the City of Charlottesville, and not far from the James and Rockfish (Walton's Mountain) Rivers. This is a project property. A handyman special house that needs remodeling. Although occupied through Jan. '24, it is in need of total remodel. It is a fix-er-upper, a work in progress, a diamond in the rough. Handy with basic tools? Got some friends in the construction fields? This may be just up your alley. The time to realize the dream is now. Escape the economic, urban and social disfunction. This house is now under renovation with new roof and siding being installed. Owner/Agent.
