Long & Foster’s Pam Diemer has exclusively listed the 100+ acres on the Jackson River
Two expansive retreats along the Jackson River in Covington, Va., are now being offered by Long & Foster Real Estate, the largest independent residential real estate company in the United States and an affiliate of Christie’s International Real Estate, at reduced prices. Located at 505 East Morris Hill Road, the first listing features over 40 acres of private land, as well as a recently remodeled ranch-style home, and it is listed for $1.75 million. The second listing on nearby Jackson River Road offers nearly 60 acres of unspoiled land, and it is being offered for $1.5 million. The properties are exclusively listed by Pam Diemer, a sales associate with Long & Foster’s Tuckahoe office in Richmond, Va., and H. Merrill Plaisted, III, vice chairman emeritus with Cushman & Wakefield Thalhimer.
“These two unique riverfront properties present a wealth of opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike,” said Diemer. “You can enjoy the move-in ready home and private land on East Morris Hill Road, or take the time to build your dream vacation destination with the Jackson River Road property. Either way, both properties bring you lush meadows, mountainside views and river access that set them apart from all others.”
Both properties sit alongside the Jackson River in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia—a protected natural environment perfect for fishing, hiking and other outdoor activities. The tree-lined river complements the vast Allegheny Mountain hardwoods. The cold temperatures of the river make it the ideal home for rainbow and brown trout populations, and it has become a famous destination for fly fishing. The properties also feature easy access to the interstate and the Roanoke area via I-64, and they are less than 15 miles from The Omni Homestead Resort & Spa in Hot Springs, Va., and about 25 miles from The Greenbrier in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va.
The nearly 60-acre Jackson River Road property features two parcels, separated by the river’s crystal-clear waters. Possibilities are nearly endless for the lush land—build your dream home, overlooking the river and Alleghany Mountains, or construct a tiny home, perfect for weekend escapes. The potential even exists for installing a grass airstrip, making it easy to access the property by land or air. Additionally, the historic Virginia property is one of the few in the United States that comes with a “Crown Grant,” allowing you exclusive access to the river.
The over 40-acre estate on East Morris Hill Road also includes a three-bedroom, three-bathroom ranch house. A finished basement adds to the home’s living space, which stands at around 4,100 square feet. The residence has been extensively renovated and is in excellent condition, ready to move in and enjoy the outdoors.
