Property Description
Tucked away on 7.7 acres of serene, wooded land, this 2,103 sq ft home offers privacy, space, and versatility just minutes from Alexandria. The flexible layout includes 3 bedrooms with the potential for 4 or even 5, thanks to a home office and formal dining room that can be repurposed to fit your needs.
Outdoors, you'll find a new 30x60 metal shop featuring three roll-up doors, a floor drain, and a cleaning station with a built-in deer hook—perfect for sportsmen. The detached "she shed" is fully equipped with electric and water, offering endless potential as a studio, office, or guest space. New landscaping has recently been installed and includes a soaker hose irrigation system with light-triggered motion sensor timers for low-maintenance care.
Additional upgrades include:
Termite contract in place and transferable to the new owner
Treatment plant recently pumped
Located outside of city limits
Double-pane windows for energy efficiency
Surrounded by mature trees—including moss-draped cypress in the back swamp area—this property offers complete seclusion with no neighbors in sight. Enjoy nature views, frequent deer sightings, and the peaceful sounds of the forest, all while being just minutes from town.
