Absolutely charming circa 1856 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage set on a tidy, manageable one-acre parcel just outside the historic town of Scottsville. Surrounded by rolling pastures and peaceful countryside, the property offers uninterrupted pastoral views with incredible sunsets that create a truly serene sense of escape. A large maple tree graces the front of the cottage, providing a lovely canopy of shade and timeless character. Glorious white hydrangeas, when in full bloom, add a burst of brightness and classic charm. Thoughtfully maintained and full of character, the home features bright, inviting living spaces and comfortable proportions. Whether you’re relaxing on the front porch or hosting a cozy gathering indoors, you’ll feel right at home in this warm and welcoming setting. The parcel is fenced for dogs and offers room to garden, play, or enjoy the fresh air and quiet. It’s an ideal spot for those who crave a touch of rural living without sacrificing convenience: downtown Scottsville, the James River, and local wineries are all just a short drive away. A perfect artist's retreat, full-time residence, or weekend getaway, this delightful property offers country charm and simple living at its best.
