Supplements: ... (Read more) Cool breezes, sunshine, pretty pastures, and a strong Appalachian history of local farming, 7341 Back Valley Rd is an exceptional property. The original farmhouse is believed to be built between 1830-1850 and was the center of the Raines-McMahan 500-acre family farm. The original farm stretched up Peters Mountain to the Virginia line. Now, the farm is a short distance from the Jefferson National Forest, the Alleghany Trail, and the Appalachian Trail. Continuing farm history, in the early 1990s, the farm became the Back Valley Farmstead known for farm certified organic fresh produce and the initial start of the concert series, Floyd Fest, now a popular event in Floyd, VA. In 2016, the property became the Gaea Farm. Many updates were added to the house and the crop additions included asparagus, grapes, blueberries, an orchard, morel mushrooms and more. In 2022, the current owners purchased the farm and added a back deck for stunning views, a covered front porch, improvements to the house, cleaned the fields, and continued the good life of farming. For almost 200 years, good stewards of the land have loved this property. The house was built in 2 parts, the original 1850 portion and the kitchen area added ~1900. The modernized spacious kitchen is a chef's dream with plenty of counter space, a Five Star gas stove with 4 burners and a griddle, excellent storage including a deep shelf pantry, and "to die for" views from every window. The 10' X 20' deck expands the view shed with views of the pond, sunsets to the west, and mountains to the north.
