Property Description
This property is being sold by way of public auction on October 29th onsite at property. MLS requires a List Price that may differ from final Sales Price. Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains at 1024 Sunset Dr., Amherst, Virginia, this remarkable 125± acre property divided into 8 Tracts, features a stately 2-story brick manor home built in 1840 and so much more. Steeped in nearly two centuries of history, the 3,820-square-foot residence offers 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms within classic Federal-style architecture, featuring a columned front porch, an upper-level balcony, and quality period construction that has stood the test of time. Set behind a circular driveway and framed by mature shade trees and landscaped grounds, the home commands sweeping mountain views across 31.1± acres of open land, the land also features a large multi-stall custom horse barn, a large equipment barn, a dressage arena, a spring fed pond, and fenced pastureland -- a turnkey equestrian estate for horse enthusiasts and history lovers alike. Adjoining Tract 2 adds another 4.58± acres of moderately cleared land, rounding out a private, self-sufficient homestead with deep local heritage. Beyond the historic core, this auction presents a rare opportunity to acquire up to eight total tracts spanning 125± acres in one of Amherst County's most scenic corners. Tracts 3 through 8, offered separately, include 53± wooded acres with an excellent building site (Tract 3), 25± open acres offering room to build (Tract 4), and four smaller open, buildable parcels ranging from 2.7± to 3.2± acres (Tracts 5-8) -- ideal for homesites, investment, or expanding the legacy estate. Whether you're drawn to the timeless character and equestrian amenities of the historic manor or the flexibility of the surrounding buildable land, this sale offers something for every buyer. Don't miss the chance to own a piece of Amherst County history -- Amherst Elementary, middle, and high school. This property will be sold at public auction, with tracts available individually or in combination. For more information, visit woltz.com/auctions/1066 or contact Russell Seneff at (540)-765-7733
