Rare opportunity in Rockingham County! Own a piece of history tucked away along the Shenandoah River on over 35 Acres! Take a step back in time with this one of a kind 18th century plantation farm, built by Col. William Yancey. The Riverbank plantation offers endless possibilities and is perched purposely along flowing waters of the Shenandoah River! The 4, 200 sqft Greek Revival home features a central passage floor plan, 4 course brick construction, high ceilings, flowing heart pine hardwood floors, original hardware, heavy wood trim, large rooms with a total of 14 FP's, and a 2 tier deck overlooking rolling crop fields, mountains and flowing river. With an updated kitchen and one updated bath the renovation process has started and is now waiting for one to provide their own personal touch and add some additional love to this home. Close your eyes and bring this piece of history back to life, whether it be sharing this rarity with the public through a wedding venue (vdot commercial approved entrance in place)/air BNB or keeping this hidden gem to your self for personal use, this property has it all! Don't miss the completely remodeled farm house and multiple farm buildings packed full of history that are located on the property!
