An extraordinary offering along Nelson County’s celebrated Route 151 corridor, 8486 Rockfish Valley Highway encompasses approx 158 acres across 5 parcels. With sweeping Blue Ridge mountain views, exceptional privacy, and remarkable flexibility, the property presents an ideal setting for a legacy estate, family compound, private retreat, or thoughtfully planned investment opportunity. The North Branch of the Rockfish River meanders through the property, inviting leisurely summer afternoon picnics or refreshing dips in clear mountain waters after a day exploring the nearby trails. An early-2000s one-level contemporary provides the opportunity to live comfortably on the property while designing and building your dream home on one of the four additional premier homesites, each offering a beautiful mountain setting. The existing home may then serve as a guest residence, caretaker’s cottage, or income-producing property. An addl' 38 acres with division rights fronting Rt 151 with river frontage + mtn views is also avail. Located just over the Alb Co line, the property is mins from some of the area’s most celebrated wineries & breweries, Shenandoah Natl Park hikes, 20 mins to wintergreen, and 25 to UVA and Charlottesville.
