GENTLEMAN'S HORSE FARM: Beautiful horse farm on 7.491 acres. This property is located only 4 miles from Jefferson , 7/10 mile to the South Fork of the New River and a mile and a half away from Jefferson Landing Country Club. The pastures lay beautifully for horses but this could be ideal property for any farming operation. With over 900 feet of paved state maintained road frontage, this property could also be a great investment as a potential subdivision. The property features mostly open manicured grounds with riding ring and gentle laying pastures. The horse barn features two stalls with storage area, full bath and an office with storage closet. The barn is truss built with high ceilings, 2 X 6 walls and hardi plank siding. At the barn, there are also kennels for 3 dogs with indoor/outdoor access. The barn also features a really nice patio area where you can enjoy long range views for miles and miles. There are also gorgeous views all the way to the Blue Ridge Parkway behind the home which offers three bedrooms and two baths. The owner has great taste in unique landscaping trees and a variety of flowers and plants around the doublewide home and in the prayer garden. This property also features two wells and all underground utilities. The home and the horse barn set on the crest of a nice ridge with long range layered mountain views to the front and rear. This one of a kind property is conveniently located to all amenities. It is a rare and unique opportunity to own a property like this. Must see!!!
