Mountain Home With Barn and Fenced Pasture

What I Love:

There is a down-to-earth charm woven through this Southwest Virginia home, surrounded by four acres of open land and mountain views that instantly settle the heart. Inside, the warmth of unique Maple floors greets you, while thoughtful updates like thermopane tilt windows, a newer heat pump system, pex plumbing, and a refreshed roof bring practicality and peace of mind. The main level offers two bedrooms and a bath with a walk-in shower, while two additional rooms upstairs provide flexible space reached through a pull-down stairway. A bright laundry and mudroom, generous storage areas, and a detached garage add true everyday convenience.

Outdoors, the land is full of possibility. The fenced acreage, complete with a barn equipped with electricity and water, welcomes horses or other animals. An underground building adds storage for garden harvests, while surrounding fields are currently used as hay land. Although the property is being offered as is, it remains a meaningful opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone looking for an affordable mountain retreat, a second home, or a project with long-term potential.

About the Town:

Rural Retreat lives up to its name, offering a slow and peaceful rhythm surrounded by rolling hills, farmland, and classic Southwest Virginia scenery. Sunrises stretch across open fields, and evenings settle into soft, quiet tones that make porch sitting feel like a daily ritual. The area blends wide-open space with a welcoming sense of community, where life feels grounded and uninterrupted.

Convenience is still close at hand thanks to easy access to Lee Highway and Interstate 81. From local shops and small-town eateries to outdoor recreation and scenic drives, Rural Retreat offers both simplicity and ease. It is the kind of place where mountain breezes set the pace, neighbors wave as they pass, and everyday living feels calm and intentional.
