About This Home
Unmatched views and endless potential await just two miles from the heart of Charlottesville! Tucked away off Rte. 29 S, this exceptional piece of land is accessed by a paved driveway already in place and offers the perfect blend of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Perched high above the city, the property delivers stunning panoramic views and borders Albemarle County land that wraps around the peaceful Ragged Mountain Natural Area. Whether you're looking to create a private retreat, a recreational getaway, or even a future potential homesite, this property offers incredible versatility. A network of interior trails winds through the hardwood forest, ideal for ATV or UTV exploration. The land is rich with wildlife: trophy whitetail deer, wild turkey, and seasonal morel mushrooms abound. Electricity is already on site, and the existing structure offers potential for renovation into a full-time residence, weekend escape, or income-producing rental. Just minutes from shopping, dining, and all of the amenities of downtown Charlottesville, this is a rare opportunity to own land that combines natural beauty, prime location, and incredible value, offered well below its tax-assessed price.
