Description
Brand-new cottage overlooking a 9-acre private pond - Five parcels offering ample space for expansion - Two creeks offering a beautiful confluence.
Welcome to Sappony Crossing! This 44-acre property is comprised of 5 parcels, with one parcel being the pond, and 3 of the remaining 4 testing positive for conventional septic systems! You read that right; your purchase includes exclusive ownership of the stunning 9-acre pond! The picturesque landscape is most welcoming as it flows seamlessly from the cottage down to the fishing pier and boat landing. From there, it follows a stone bulkhead for 150 feet to the pavilion overlooking the dam. Also, there are over 2,000 feet of additional, untouched shoreline remaining on this property!
The 9-acre pond is fed by two creeks, Sappony Creek and Rocky Branch Creek. Sappony Creek flows across the scenic dam and beneath a 60' bridge that overlooks the rocky landscape of the creek below. The newly constructed, 840 square foot, handcrafted cottage is timber framed in white pine, featuring a soaring 18' ceiling with an oak wood spiral staircase that leads to a cozy loft. The kitchen is fully functional, and all appliances are included. The cottage has one and a half bathrooms and a utility area with washer/dryer included. The living room is entered through a mahogany front entry door with beveled glass and accesses the screened in porch through 8' multi slide glass doors. The screened porch overlooks the pond, pier and pavilion. The property features a timber framed waterfront pavilion overlooking the dam and Sappony Creek, complete with a stone fireplace with gas logs, electricity and water. Between the cottage and pavilion there's a 40'x60' concrete pad for entertaining and a large parking area nestled amongst the dogwood trees. A two-stall mobile bathroom facility adds to the estate's functionality. This private oasis is bordered by mature hardwoods and planted 21-year-old pines. Nature trails wind throughout the property, offering peaceful walks and an abundance of wildlife. Bring your rod and reel too. This old mill pond offers some of the best freshwater fishing in the area!
Perfectly positioned for commuters and travelers, you are minutes from I-95, providing rapid access to Richmond, the VA/NC state line, and the Greater Hampton Roads area. Whether as a primary residence or a weekend getaway, this old mill pond oasis offers the best of Virginia living.
