Property Description

Welcome to a very RARE opportunity to own a remarkable piece of Wythe County, Virginia's history in the beautiful Crockett's Cove. The Crockett family is well known in these parts as the whole road is named from them. John Crockett originally settled this land in the late 1700s and the historic stone home at the side of the family home marks the family's original settlement. This stone house is said to be the oldest standing structure in Wythe County. As story is told that at the time of the Battle of the Cove, some Yankee soldiers raided the stone kitchen and took the corn pones they found cooking there, which in turn kept the stone house safe from harm.
