"Unique" and "One of a Kind" are words and phrases that get tossed around a lot, especially in real estate circles. In this case, they are the correct descriptors. If you can find a property that has even two of the same features as this property does the owner will eat your straw hat! What features are we talking about? (1) The 90 acre property is wholly inside the Mountain Lake Wilderness Area. I think we may be the only privately held land in the wilderness area, which is 15,100 acres, so it's like owning 15,190 acres! (If you are not familiar with wilderness areas, please research them. ) They are much more restrictive than national forests, but since our land is privately owned, we are not restricted at all. (2) A Class B trout stream runs right through the middle of the property for hundreds of yards. It has native brook trout, and the water is about as pure as you can find in an open stream today. The water comes out of the wilderness area --- no cows, no chickens, or other animals in the water. (3) The property is about 200 yards from the Appalachian Trail. (4) As you can see, even though we are quite isolated and secluded, we are only about 40 minutes from a Division I University, shopping, 2 hospitals and other necessary businesses and services. (5) There is a spring-fed, crystal clear pond about twenty feet from the front of the house. There has NEVER been any algae or pond scum in the pond - the water is too cold. The spring water temperature is 55 degrees in January and 55 degrees in August! We have NEVER seen a mosquito here. The pond has large-mouth bass, bluegill, crappie and red ear. It attracts all sorts of animals and birds. It has a swimming deck, and the water is great for that activity. At its deepest the pond is 10-11 feet deep. (6) The wilderness area is made up of old-growth hardwoods, so it is full of rare animals, plants, flowers, etc. E. g. , Morrell Mushrooms and Ginseng are plentiful. (7) Virtually everything in the house is new: floors, windows, roof, washer/dryer, dishwasher, heat pump, tankless water heater, gas furnace, emergency whole-house generator, new extra refrigerator and new extra freezer in basement, kitchen, bathrooms, super-efficient wood-burning stove, and more. (8) Everything in the house is included. All furniture and other furnishings, all cookware. EVERYTHING is included! (9) Everything in the shop is included. A midsize John Deere tractor, with multiple attachments, a commercial-grade, zero-turn mower, a Cub Cadet riding lawnmower with trailer, a large Carry All trailer, a Troy Bilt "Horse" tiller, a powerful self-propelled weed eater, a new power washer, a 4-person UTV with low hours and thousands of power tools and regular tools. EVERYTHING is included! (10) The stream is strong enough that it can generate electricity, so if one wanted to get completely off-the-grid, it would be quite easy. (11) The garage is huge. It can easily accommodate 4 cars. If you call (434) 390-6953, I can send you a brochure with more photos and information. There is a lot here, and it is wonderful.
