Buckeye Farm is the kind of property that rarely comes to market--a thoughtfully stewarded circa-1859 farmhouse on 16.35 remarkable acres in Floyd County. Named for the second largest Virginia Tech-documented buckeye tree in the United States, the property overlooks a spring-fed pond and neighboring historic farms that have shared this landscape for more than 160 years. Here, enduring craftsmanship, thoughtful improvements, and exceptional natural beauty come together to create a place unlike any other.
Set approximately 500 feet from Highway 221, the home offers a rare balance of privacy and convenience, just five minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, twenty minutes from the Town of Floyd, and thirty minutes from Roanoke.
The historic farmhouse has been thoughtfully updated while preserving the warmth and authenticity of its original character. The renovated kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, a full-width handcrafted cement tile backsplash, and a commercial-grade Thor six-burner gas range. Contemporary finishes are thoughtfully integrated with the home's historic character, creating a space that feels both fresh and authentic. From the kitchen, a new sliding glass door opens to a Trex deck overlooking the remarkable buckeye tree, spring-fed pond, and neighboring historic farms. Just beyond the kitchen, the attached heated two-car garage and workshop provide approximately 784 square feet of versatile year-round space, complemented by an additional 280-square-foot unfinished loft offering exceptional storage and future possibilities. Tastefully renovated bathrooms, updated plumbing and electrical systems, and carefully considered finishes throughout reflect the same commitment to quality and thoughtful stewardship found across the entire property.
Over the past several years, Buckeye Farm has benefited from significant investments, including professional reinforcement of the original historic foundation, modernized mechanical systems, and carefully considered renovations that preserve the home's historic integrity, while enhancing everyday comfort.
The surrounding property includes a historic hemlock barn, large fenced garden, black walnut grove, open pasture, woodland trails, abundant wildlife, and multiple springs--offering exceptional opportunities for gardening, recreation, small-scale farming, or simply enjoying the peaceful rhythms of country life.
Adding to the property's distinctive character, an ornamental 1951 Chevrolet truck, included with the property, has become a welcoming landmark at Buckeye Farm and a charming reminder of its rural heritage.
