Poortown Road 8.9 Acre Lot

Sperryville $225,000

SOLD

When it comes to smaller parcels in Rappahannock County, it would be hard to find a more appealing property than this 8.9 acres on Poortown Road.  It has a remarkable range of features.  The lot is protected in the front by a dense forest of white pines.  Hidden in the woods are the ruins of on old spring house that provided water for the old poor farm.  The spring feeds one of three streams that flow through the property, offering several ideal pond sites.  Near the back of the property there is a high knoll that has outstanding almost 360 degree views.  Rolling farm land to the east, Old Rag and the Shenandoah National Park to the south and west and Poor Town Mountain to the north are all parts of the magnificent vistas.

 

The high knoll is an excellent building site.  It is populated by dozens of mature dogwoods, wild cherries and several large oaks and maples.  Because it is surrounded by large farms and protected by the pine forest, the building site has the privacy and protection usually found only on much larger properties.  This lot is perfect for someone who wants a private mountain hide-a-way that still is convenient to stores, shops and restaurants.  The charming village of Sperryville is only 2 miles away from the property.
