Property Description

Set on 3 serene acres in the rolling foothills of northwestern Albemarle County, this beautifully updated brick cottage offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and charm—just minutes from Free Union. Surrounded by picturesque farms and estates, the setting is as peaceful as it is scenic. Inside, the renovated ranch-style home is truly move-in ready, featuring hardwood floors, two fireplaces, and a spacious, light-filled kitchen and dining area ideal for gathering.
