This hidden gem in Fieldale, Virginia sits on 16.46 acres of rolling land with mature woods that have been waiting for someone to claim them. The existing home is a 850 sq ft 1950’s ranch with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom – simple bones to update or a cozy base while you plan bigger ideas. It’s vacant now and sold as-is so you can walk in with a clean slate, no previous owner’s stuff. Power lines run along the back so electricity is easy to hook up if not already in place. Water details aren’t listed but in this rural area a well would make sense for self-sufficiency.
Imagine mornings where you step out the door into quiet forest paths, the kind that invite a slow walk with just the rustle of leaves and distant bird calls. The property lines are marked so you have that rare feeling of defined space in the woods – room to put in a small garden, trails for hiking or even birdwatching if that’s your thing. Fieldale is a small community in Henry County where the pace matches the landscape – slow and tied to the land. It’s the kind of place where people might use this as a weekend getaway from nearby cities, a hunting spot during season or a first step into off-grid living without going full remote. The land slopes a bit towards the woods so it’s private without being isolated – easy driveway access makes it practical for regular visits.
You could renovate the home and blend it into the surroundings – maybe with bigger windows to frame the trees or a deck for evening sits. Or if building new is more your thing the open layout of the land gives you flexibility to do something more tailored to retreat-style living – a cabin with passive solar or native plantings around it. Either way it’s a canvas that respects the woods rather than overwhelming them.
Price $92,000.
