1094 Twisty River Road, Oakwood, VA 24631

Description

This 0.17-acre property at 1094 Twisty River Road sits in the Garden Creek community just outside Oakwood, Virginia, in Buchanan County. It is a compact lot on a county-maintained road, and Buchanan County Public Service Authority water and sewer are available to the parcel. Power lines run along the road in front. The lot is made up of four platted lots (Garden Creek Lots 139, 140, 141 and 142) under one tax parcel. There is no zoning and no HOA. It is a practical option for a buyer who wants a small, serviced lot in the coalfields of Southwest Virginia, only a couple of miles off US-460.

THE LAND:

The lot is generally level and is not steep. It sits between Twisty River Road and a railroad line in a settled valley setting, with homes along the road on both sides. The parcel is an irregular six-sided shape, roughly 100 feet deep along the road side.

EXISTING STRUCTURES:

The property has two single-wide mobile homes placed side by side under a shared roof. They are not currently lived in, they are not in livable condition, and there are no titles for the mobile homes. The property is being sold as-is. Most buyers should plan on removing the structures and treating this as a lot. FLOOD ZONE:

More than half of the lot is inside a mapped FEMA flood zone. Any new home or placement would need to meet Buchanan County flood-zone building requirements, and lenders will generally require flood insurance. Check the flood map and building requirements with the county before you plan improvements.

UTILITIES AND BUILDING:

The Buchanan County Public Service Authority confirmed that public water and sewer are available at this address. Service to the property was active from 2007 to 2022 and is currently shut off. Power is on the road through Appalachian Power. Buchanan County has no zoning, but building permits and flood-zone questions go through the Buchanan County Building Code office. Confirm all permit, connection, and flood requirements with the county and the utility providers before you buy.

LOCATION:

The property is in the Garden Creek area of Oakwood, reached from US-460 by way of VA-624 (Garden Creek Road), Hobby House Road and Twisty River Road. US-460 connects to Grundy, the county seat, and to Richlands and Tazewell to the east. The area is known for mountain scenery, ATV and off-road trails, hunting and fishing across the region. Nearby schools include Council Elementary, Council Middle School and Council High School.

IDEAL FOR:

• A buyer looking for a small lot with public water and sewer available
• A new manufactured-home placement once the old structures are removed (subject to flood-zone rules)
• A local buyer or neighbor wanting to add to nearby property
• A cleanup-and-resell project
