Located on the beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway is a 14 acre Fraser Fir tree farm with a small log cabin. Views from this site are tremendous as you would expect from the Blue Ridge Parkway. This property once belonged to the Logan family and adjoins the Puckett Farm whose early cabin is an exhibit at milepost 190 on the Parkway. In 1767? It was part of Pittsylvania County, which comprised the land that is now six counties. John Bowman, a Revolutionary War soldier, was the earliest known settler in this area. Joshua Renfro, whom the access road is named, was a captain in a local militia under the command of Col Abram Penn. The farm in the twentieth century was primarily cultivated in corn, tobacco and cabbage, the pond was used for irrigation. The spring that forms the pond is the source of East Johnson Creek. A large portion of the farm is in rich hay pasture. There are three tax map parcels in this tract enabling that many divisions. There are two separate right of ways that grant direct access to the parkway, which, as you know, is an unusual characteristic of parkway property. The aforementioned pond has supported a strong trout population, besides the East Johnson Creek. The well also supplies the existing cabin and the latter has it's own septic system. Golf is nearby at The Old Mill Club. A once in a lifetime opportunity on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Divided into 3 parcels, the first parcel with the log cabin is 14.6 acres. Buy all 3 parcels or select any parcel you choose. Less
