Description
Nestled in the picturesque countryside of Franklin County, this breathtaking 30.98+- -acre parcel offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Virginia's rich history. Bonbrook Mill was built in 1843, operating as a commercial flour mill. Remnants of the large five-story mill still stand to this day, made from hand-fired brick. The mill had been the gathering point for commerce as well as the voting point from the 1840's to the early 1900's. The area was used as a local swimming hole and as the place where Bonbrook Church would conduct baptisms. The long asphalt road that runs through the property could be cleared and used as a private drive into the property. This unique property is located along Bonbrook Mill Road, where the tranquil Maggodee Creek winds its way through the landscape, accentuating the natural beauty of the old mill site. With its rolling hills and mature woodlands, this land provides the perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility, making it an ideal location for your dream home or a private retreat. Imagine creating your own legacy on a site that has been a cornerstone of the community for generations. The mill's proximity to the creek offers scenic views and a peaceful ambiance, with the soothing sounds of flowing water creating a serene atmosphere. With around 2,000+- feet of creek frontage, the possibilities for outdoor recreation are endless. Enjoy fishing, kayaking, or simply relaxing by the water's edge. The land's diverse terrain supports an abundance of wildlife, making it a paradise for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. There are several potential building sites throughout the property, each offering breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and valleys.
