About This Home

Legacy property. Deep within the tree-covered ancient hills of Blackwater lies a remarkable estate defined by beauty, privacy, and craftsmanship. Spanning approximately 226 extraordinary acres, the property features three homes, a large pond, a barn, open pastureland, mature forests, and numerous springs and natural water sources woven throughout the landscape. The primary residence, originally constructed in 1999, has been thoughtfully remodeled to reflect the rich rustic character of this mountain region. With board-and-batten siding, expansive decks, and a metal roof, the home offers protection from the elements while embracing its remarkable natural surroundings. Inside, you will find a spacious living room, sunroom, primary suite, two additional bedrooms, full bath, and a large kitchen appointed with quality flooring and carefully selected antique building materials that create a rare sense of warmth, luxury, and nostalgia. The second residence was constructed using historic logs reclaimed from eighteenth- and nineteenth-century North Carolina structures. A sweeping wraparound porch and outdoor living area with fireplace create an ideal setting for gatherings or peaceful evenings overlooking the property. The main level features a primary suite alongside an inviting living room and kitchen area, while the lower level offers an additional primary suite, half bath, and bonus room opening directly to the backyard. Throughout the home, the exposed historic log walls, massive hand-hewn beams and rafters, and exceptional finishes create an atmosphere that is both refined and deeply rooted in Appalachian history. The third home is a late eighteenth-century log house that still stands as a reminder of the property's earlier days. With a recently installed roof and years of attentive care, the structure awaits restoration and offers tremendous potential to further enhance the estate's historical significance and value. Properties of this scale and character rarely become available. Whether envisioned as a private family compound, event venue, luxury retreat, equestrian property, or income-producing short-term rental destination, the possibilities here are extensive. This is more than a luxury mountain estate; it is a lasting piece of Southwest Virginia history.
