Diamond in the Rough! Apple trees and the beginnings of a small vineyard! 5 acres in Virginia. $125,000

March 21, 2025

This property has apple trees and the beginnings of a small vineyard. The listing says “off-grid” living, but I see power and indoor plumbing. Not having those two things is generally what that means. Unless they are talking about not having central heat and air. The house was built in 1905. It is located on 5.4 acres in Boydton, Virginia. Not far from beautiful Kerr Lake. The house features a covered front porch, bead board ceilings, baseboards and wainscoting. There are three storage sheds on the property. Four bedrooms, one bathroom and 2,016 square feet. $125,000
