About This Home

Experience the beauty and versatility of this exceptional 73±-acre property along the scenic Buffalo River in Amherst County, Virginia. Offering approximately 58± acres of open fields and nearly 3,000+/- feet of river frontage, the land features gently rolling terrain, Blue Ridge Mountain views, and the rare advantage of a registered private 1,700-foot grass landing strip. Originally developed for hang gliding and ultralight aircraft, the runway also accommodates small planes, making it ideal for both recreational and light aviation use. A 50'×72'± insulated metal hangar with a concrete floor provides excellent space for aircraft storage, a workshop, or studio use. For those not focused on aviation, the expansive open acreage is perfectly suited for creating a farm, private retreat, or hunting preserve. The property is rich with wildlife, offering outstanding sport and recreational opportunities. Infrastructure includes underground electric, a private well, a four-bedroom conventional septic system, and a shed equipped with a modern bathroom and shower. Enrolled in land use for very low taxes, the property is positioned just 45 minutes south of Charlottesville and 20 minutes north of Lynchburg, offering aviation, agricultural, and recreational potential in a convenient yet genuinely rural setting.
