Tucked into the Fairview community of Duffield, Virginia, this 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage sits on 35.64 acres of wooded and open land, offering a rare blend of privacy and accessibility. Originally built in 1900, the 888-square-foot home carries the charm of its era while sitting just a mile from US 23, making everyday travel simple without sacrificing the peaceful setting. Mature trees, quiet surroundings, and wide-open acreage make it an appealing option for anyone seeking a retreat from busier areas.<\/p>\n

Inside, several important updates have already been completed to support comfort and long-term efficiency. New windows, fresh sheetrock backed with Styrofoam insulation, and durable plywood flooring provide a solid foundation for the next stage of renovations. The kitchen has been fully cleared, giving buyers a blank slate for their preferred design, while the bathroom is ready for modern fixtures and personalized finishing touches.<\/p>\n

The home rests on a cinder block foundation and is topped with a sturdy metal roof, offering structural reassurance for future renovations. A long covered front porch adds to the property\u2019s potential once restored, creating a welcoming outdoor sitting area. The basement houses an unused stoker furnace, presenting possibilities for future heating choices. A large outbuilding, built from sawmill lumber, expands the property\u2019s function with ample room for storage, a workshop, or small-scale farming equipment.<\/p>\n

The expansive 35.64-acre parcel includes never-harvested mature timber and thriving wildlife, with deer and wild turkey frequently seen across the landscape. The untouched timber offers long-term investment potential, while the land itself is ideal for recreation, hunting, homesteading, or future development. For buyers looking to enjoy rural Virginia living with space to grow, create, or restore, this Duffield property represents a versatile and scenic opportunity.<\/p>\n
