Oh my! In love with this one! Circa 1830. On 196 acres in Virginia. $875,000

Oh my! I am in love with this house! That price is crazy! This home was built in 1830. It is located on 196 acres in Gladstone, Virginia. The home features hardwood floors, original paint, beautiful federal mantels, painted mural, crown moulding, wainscoting and wide baseboards. There is a gunite pool on the property and a guest house. Curious about the low price for this one. Luke said there is a paper mill in that town and sure enough, if you pull up satellite view you can see it nearby. With 196 acres of trees, I wonder how much of a buffer they provide. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and 3,515 square feet. $875,000
