About This Property
Not another cookie-cutter house on a tiny lot. This cabin-style home sits on 4.51 acres in the Virginia City Highlands, offering wide-open views, privacy and room to spread out. The property delivers the mountain feel buyers come here for, with open land for outdoor living, recreational vehicles, animals or future projects—subject to applicable rules and approvals. Inside, the home has genuine cabin character and a comfortable layout ready for its next owner's personal touch. Enjoy quiet mornings, dark night skies and space between you and the neighbors, while remaining within reach of Reno, South Reno and historic Virginia City. Also has a whole house generator and a couple of storage sheds.
