About This Home
Tucked away on 7 private acres, this unique country retreat offers the perfect blend of peaceful living and versatile opportunity—country living done right—with a charming cabin-style main home and a fully separate guest house. With no HOA and a setting designed for a true mini farm lifestyle, the property features fenced pastures, mature fruit trees including apple, peach, Asian pear, and plum, along with blueberries, blackberries, and grapevines. Cub Creek gently borders the land, adding to the natural beauty and sense of seclusion, all while enjoying a convenient location less than 15 minutes to I-64 and within easy reach of Short Pump, Lake Anna, the town of Mineral, and more. Inside the main residence, warm bamboo flooring, vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, and a stone-accented wood-burning stove create an inviting great room. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features granite countertops, a five-burner gas cooktop with hood, wall oven, stainless steel appliances, and radiant heated floors that extend into the dining area. A main-level bedroom and full bath offer convenience, while upstairs includes a loft bedroom and an additional bedroom suite with a soaking tub. The guest house is equally well-appointed with hardwood flooring, two bedrooms, a full bath, a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances, and a spacious family room—ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income. A dedicated workshop with its own entrance and wood stove adds even more flexibility. Both homes enjoy private wells, separate electric meters, and spacious decks for outdoor living, with the guest house to have its own private septic system installed prior to closing. Approximately five acres of the property are fully fenced for your pets and approximately one acre is fenced with a run-in shelter —ready for horses, goats, chickens, or more. Whether you're dreaming of a homestead, multi-generational living, or an income-producing property, this one-of-a-kind offering delivers the space, privacy, and lifestyle to make it a reality. It's a true country retreat!
