VAF1028 We are offering at online auction a 78.8 +/- acre Greene County VA farm at 928 Slate Mill Rd, Stanardsville VA 22973. This property is improved by a 6,000+ sq ft home, 36x90 ft shop and equipment shed, historic 1850's grist mill, 20x30 pole barn cattle handling facility, carriage house/garage, summer kitchen, granary, fully fenced pastures and watering troughs. This farm is zoned A1 and located just east of Stanardsville VA at the end of South River Rd. It features over 1/2 mile of frontage on the South River and over 1/2 mile of frontage on Henshaw Run with views of the Blue Ridge Mountains to the west. This is a truly exceptional property with all kinds of possibilities for everything from a working cattle farm, to primary residence, equestrian use, or luxurious private retreat. Our seller's purchased this property to be their forever home - a peaceful place where they could raise a family and cattle. But business opportunities and responsibilities are making it necessary to move out of state. Their loss can be your gain as you now have an opportunity to own the kind of property that rarely becomes available in this part of Virginia. This farm is not restricted by any easements or leases. It has 50+ acres of fescue pasture that is fenced and cross fenced with high tensile electric and includes 6 grazing paddocks each with their own Mirafount watering troughs. A cattle handling facility with 20x32 pole barn, corral, panels, squeeze chute and loading area is included to make this farm ready to go to work for your cattle operation. The remainder of the property is mixed hardwood and pine forest which provides cover for the abundant wildlife that call this farm home. In the lower field you will find your very own field of dreams baseball field with full size chain link backstop. The homesite on the hill overlooking the river features a stunning 6,000 + sq ft residence which is actually two homes in one. The south end of the house is a 1940's era 4 bedroom, 2 bath home which was carefully restored at the same time as the 2004 addition was added to the north side which offers an additional 3 bedroom 3.5 baths. These two complete living quarters were thoughtfully integrated into one structure with easy access and privacy for both. Each end has its own kitchen, HVAC system, septic, and electrical service. They both have quality finishes throughout - with granite, hardwood, and tile. The natural beauty of this farm is enhanced by the cool clear water of the South River which borders the farm on two sides and Henshaw Run which borders a third side. The headwaters of the South River are located in the Shenandoah National Park and the Blue Ridge mountains which are visible from the farm. A number of times per year native trout are stocked in this river making fishing a fun pastime. In the 1850's the power of the South River was harnessed by the Miller family who lived in the area from 1777 to 1865. They built a grist mill on this farm which still stands today. The mill changed hands and names a number of times over the years and was called W.F. Southard's Mill and later Eppard's Mill. This mill was used to grind grain and for a brief time generate electricity until it was retired sometime in the 1960's. Today the waterwheel is missing but the grinding stones and much of the machinery is still intact inside the mill itself. This structure could be restored by someone with vision and energy. |
