Bumpass, VA 23024

The original "Elk Creek Farm", now known as "Longway", is a stunning, pre-civil war waterfront estate, situated along the tranquil shores of Lake Anna on the lake's private side. Sit on the large back deck with a covered gazebo and enjoy the gorgeous water views and warm summer breeze. Experience over 500+ ft of shoreline, already protected by beautiful bulkhead and riprap, alongside the clearest water perfect for floating and swimming. Park your boat in the large boathouse on the electric boat lift; boathouse also offers a covered sun deck and a private concrete boat ramp. Longway is a two-story home that has been well maintained over the years, and still holds so much of its original antebellum charm. The Mount Vernon style front porch still showcases the original front door and exterior light that leads into the center hall of the home. Much of the original hardwood flooring remains. Over 3,300+ finished Sqft, 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 7 fireplaces inside the home, 10ft ceilings, crown molding, chair rail and wide hallways. There is a smaller, brick wing formerly knows as the "summer kitchen" that is attached by an enclosed breezeway and sliding doors. The old summer kitchen is now used purely for storage and as a workshop area. There is an open barn/hay barn/storage building on the property, a paved circular driveway, extensive hardscaping and beautiful trees, including Magnolia, Maple, Oak, Fig and Crepe Myrtle trees. All chimneys are known to be functional; the metal roof was installed around 2012, the windows replaced 20 years ago, pressure tank in 2021 and hot water tank in 2018. Some new drywall and fresh paint throughout was added in 2022. Front porch has new composite decking and the columns were just replaced in 2022. Location is ideal, approximately 5 minutes from groceries, restaurants, ABC, vet clinics and more. Walking distance from the popular Elk Creek Country Store.
