Smith Run, Bentonville, VA 22610

Property Description

7.31 private acres on Smith Run Road in Bentonville, with frontage on Smith Run Creek. Jenkins Gap Trail begins right on Smith Run Road, a short walk from the property. It climbs through the forest into Shenandoah National Park and meets the Appalachian Trail near Skyline Drive, so you can walk out your door and be on the AT without getting in the car. From there, the trail network opens up: north toward Compton Peak, or south along the Marshall peaks. If you hike, run, or just want the mountains as your backyard routine instead of a weekend drive, this is the location. The land itself is easy to work with. It's gently rolling to level, so siting a home, barn, workshop, or garden is simple and doesn't take heavy grading or a long, expensive driveway cut into a hillside. There is no HOA and there are no covenants or restrictions, so you can build what you want, keep animals, put up outbuildings, and use the land the way you intend. Two septic sites, which gives you real flexibility. You could build a main home and a guest house, a home for family on the same land, or pursue a possible division of the parcel, subject to Warren County approval. The setting is quiet, private, and wooded, with the creek on the property and the mountains a walk away. The Shenandoah River and Shenandoah River State Park are also close by in Bentonville, and Front Royal and Luray are both an easy drive for shopping and services. Usable, private acreage with this kind of trail access doesn't come up often in Warren County. Bring your plans.
