Escape the ordinary and come home to something truly special. Set among the mountains of Southwest Virginia, 161 Slowpoke Trail offers the rare combination of a newer home, incredible views, privacy, acreage, and the freedom that comes with owning 40 acres of your own mountain paradise. Built in 2017, this inviting home offers approximately 1,050 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, featuring beautiful hardwood floors, bright living room, spacious kitchen with undercabinet lighting, large bedrooms, 2 car garage that's heated and cooled and has it's own bathroom, double pane windows, HVAC, Covered front patio with incredible mountain views, and the comfort of modern construction. The property includes an attached two-car garage that is heated and cooled and is not included in the 1,050-square-foot living-area figure--providing an exceptional amount of additional space for vehicles, hobbies, equipment, a workshop, or whatever your mountain lifestyle demands. Then there is the land. Forty acres. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Appalachian Mountains, this property offers the kind of privacy and breathing room that is increasingly difficult to find. Wake up to mountain scenery, explore your own acreage, watch wildlife move through the woods, and enjoy the peace that comes from having no close neighbors competing for your view. Deer and wild turkey are frequent visitors, making this an especially appealing property for the outdoor enthusiast, wildlife watcher, or anyone who simply appreciates having nature right outside the door. And while the setting feels wonderfully secluded, you're not isolated. Dryden places you within easy reach of the amenities, restaurants, shopping, recreation, and culture of Big Stone Gap, Pennington Gap, and surrounding Southwest Virginia communities. Outdoor adventure is practically part of the address. The nearby Stone Mountain/Spearhead Trail system offers miles of challenging ATV and OHV riding with spectacular mountain overlooks, while the surrounding Jefferson National Forest provides hiking, wildlife viewing, fishing, camping, and countless opportunities to explore the Appalachian landscape. Big Stone Gap adds another dimension to the lifestyle. Known as a small town with a ''big story,'' the community is steeped in Appalachian history, culture, coal heritage, outdoor recreation, and literature. The town was incorporated in 1882 during the region's industrial boom, and its history is closely tied to coal, iron, timber, and the development of Southwest Virginia. The area is also famously connected to author John Fox Jr. and The Trail of the Lonesome Pine, which helped immortalize the people and landscape of this part of Appalachia. Big Stone Gap's historic district contains numerous architecturally significant buildings, while the Southwest Virginia Museum Historical State Park, historic homes, theaters, museums, and the Powell River add even more character to the region. This is more than a house on acreage. It's a chance to own your own piece of Appalachia. A newer home. Hardwood floors. A heated and cooled oversized two-car garage. Mountain views. 40 acres of privacy. Abundant wildlife. Outdoor recreation at your doorstep. And the history, culture, and charm of Southwest Virginia all around you. Whether you're searching for a private full-time residence, mountain retreat, hunting property, homestead, recreational getaway, or simply a place where you can slow down and enjoy life, 161 Slowpoke Trail deserves your attention. Properties offering this combination of modern comfort, acreage, views, privacy, and location don't come along every day. Come see it. Walk the land. Take in the views. Listen to the quiet. You may find that this isn't just where you want to live-- it's where you want to stay.
