644 ASHBY LN Etlan, VA 22719

This is a rare opportunity to own a cozy cabin with 20 acres on a secluded mountainside sitting adjacent to Old Rag Mt in the much sought after Etlan area. Beautiful long range fall/winter views. The log section was originally a pre-civil war structure in the Appomattox Court House area where papers were signed in 1865 to end the Civil War. The cabin's trusses & beams were made from timbers of a pre-Civil War warehouse in Lexington Va. You will admire the 10 1/2" shiplapped pine floors throughout. All of the fireplace and foundation stones were found on the mountain and there are several beautiful rock outcroppings in the yard. The spacious loft above the living area has enough space for several single beds or bunks, as the rain from the tin roof soothes you to sleep. There is plenty of room out from the dining area where the deck is now, to build an extra bedroom or expand the living space. The current septic system is designed for two bedrooms. The yard has plenty of cleared area in the front, back and side for outdoor activities. There is a small ( but dry) basement/cellar under the cabin that has a wood stove, a work bench, and plenty of storage. The owner has good Verizon Cell service from the cabin, and Satellite TV or Internet will work from there also. The private shared drive going up the mountain to the small community above does not include a road maintenance agreement, but has always been well cared for. The private drive from the shared road to the cabin is about .2 of a mile long and curves along the ridge o f the property. The lower portion of the property has some cleared area ( as you come in the shared drive past the " End of State Maintenance" sign) and is level enough for another home site. The survey in the document section shows a possible division line that was surveyed but never recorded. All of the contents of the cabin will convey at settlement. The cabin is in great condition, but has not been regularly occupied for the past 5 years and is being sold " AS IS". Appointments only ! No Drive by viewing. We want to respect the quiet nature of this small weekend community. Please see the document section for more information.
