Description

Explore this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own 'Cabin Hill' on the James River. Two circa 1910 log cabins; a Mid-Century Modern addition by renowned architect Bud Hyland; 2.48 acres on two lots; sweeping river views; AND 173' of riverfront footage make this property incomparable. Once a family retreat, the 1, 900+ sq ft main cabin has been a primary residence since 1950. The current owners engaged architect Hyland in 1964 to design an addition and dormers to make it a family-friendly home. The addition has his signature vertical board and batten exterior which, true to his Frank Lloyd Wright training, Hyland blended seamlessly with the cabin and natural surroundings. The addition added a foyer, St. Charles kitchen, and 2nd flr bedroom to the now 3 bed, 2.5 bath house. The vintage kitchen with Frigidaire range and top-of-the-line upgrades is in mint condition. A soaring, two-story great room offers several seating areas with an impressive 9' stone fireplace, log beams, & decorative wood trim. The windows were upgraded to capture the lot's beauty and blend the original design with the mid-century upgrades. Two doors lead to a full-width screened porch with 100 degree views of the James River creating amazing breezes and great flow for guests to relax and dine in several seasons. A bluestone river viewing area overlooks your waterfront ‘meadow’ fronting the James River where you can have access for kayaking, canoeing and paddleboarding in the ‘flats’. A second 1910 cabin with an add'l 875 sq ft has a stone fireplace, 2 levels, a screen porch overlooking the ‘branch’ or creek below, and once housed a kitchen and 2 baths. It would make a great guest house or studio – your imagination is the limit! This amazing property is just west of the Huguenot bridge & public put-in, making it a 4 minute drive to River Road Shopping Center and convenient to Libbie/Grove and the Huguenot Road corridor. Come experience this retreat which feels divinely remote and relaxing, yet is so close to everything in the city!
