Gorgeous 3BR, 2BA Keswick Cape Cod is nearly unrecognizable after recent facelift adding expansive front porch and large rear patio with screened porch, both perfect for stellar outside entertaining. Within 5 minutes of Sentara MJH, this home embodies country charm alongside city convenience. Schedule a showing to see wood floors throughout, eat in kitchen with butcher block counters and white cabinets, upgraded stainless steel appliances, first floor bedroom, walk in showers, and remodeled upstairs bath with double vanity. Outdoor shed has plenty of space, and the open yard with mature walnut, magnolia, and chestnut trees feels twice its size but remains manageable.

RA
Rural Areas District
This district hereafter referred to as RA is hereby created and may hereafter be established by amendment of the zoning map for the following purposes: Preservation of agricultural and forestal lands and activities; Water supply protection; Limited service delivery to the rural areas; and Conservation of natural, scenic, and historic resources. Residential development not related to bona fide agricultural/forestal use shall be encouraged to locate in the urban area, communities and villages as designated in the comprehensive plan where services and utilities are available and where such development will not conflict with the agricultural/forestal or other rural objective. Where development does occur, rural residents should expect to receive a lower level of service delivery than will be provided to residential developments in designated growth areas. In relation to residential development, agricultural/forestal activities shall be regulated only to the extent necessary to protect public health and safety.; In regard to agricultural preservation, this district is intended to preserve the county's active farms and best agricultural and forestal lands by providing lot areas designed to insure the continued availability of such lands for preferential land use tax assessment in order to enhance the economy, and maintain employment and lifestyle opportunities. In addition, the continuation and establishment of agriculture and agriculturally-related uses will be encouraged, and landowners will be encouraged to employ Virginia State Water Control Board best management practices.
