Cottage for Sale on 33 Acres in Blackwater, VA with Fruit Trees and Garden

This cottage is for sale at $319,900, located at 6720 Canton Rd, Blackwater, VA 24221. Built in 2015, the 676-square-foot home sits on 33.55 acres of peaceful land with a beautiful mix of open pasture and wooded terrain. This one-bedroom, one-bathroom residence offers a simple, cozy lifestyle in a quiet rural setting, perfect for a weekend retreat, hobby farming, or full-time country living.

Inside, the home features an open kitchen and living area with heating provided by gas wall units and electric baseboards. Cooling comes from window AC units. A leased propane tank, just $90 per year, powers the indoor heaters and grill hookup on the back deck. A concrete-floored stand-up crawl space offers excellent storage. The home is connected to public water and high-speed internet and is being sold fully furnished, excluding the owner’s personal items.

Outdoors, the property shines. It’s set up for gardening and homesteading with 1,000 strawberry plants, 6 elderberry bushes, 12 blueberry bushes, and 24 fruit trees including apple, peach, cherry, plum, and pear. There’s also a garden area and two sheds, one near the road and another tucked behind the home. Whether you’re planting food, storing tools, or expanding your hobbies, this property offers plenty of space and potential.

A brand-new driveway, valued at $25,000, provides full private access from the main road. The land is also suitable for horses, thanks to its balance of pasture and woods. Several scenic spots on the property would be ideal for camping or even building additional cabins in the future. The on-site bee apiary, which includes nine hives and all related equipment, can be purchased separately for $7,500.

Part of the property lies in Scott County and the rest in Lee County. The tax amount shown includes both, though Lee County has recently updated its assessment for 2024. All information has been sourced from tax records and is believed to be reliable, but buyers and their agents should verify everything including square footage, lot size, and school district. This is a rare chance to own a peaceful slice of Southwest Virginia with room to grow.
