About this property
Welcome to The Wandering Yak, a beautifully crafted tiny home built in 2024 on a private, wooded acre just minutes from the James River and historic Scottsville. Currently operating as a highly rated Airbnb, this fully furnished, turnkey property pairs rustic charm with a proven short-term rental track record — generating $34,900 in gross rental income from 10/2025 to 7/2026. Shiplap walls and vaulted ceilings frame a cozy queen bedroom and a fully stocked kitchen with a coffee bar. The true showstopper is the covered outdoor living pavilion: a private hot tub, lounge and dining seating, ceiling fans, string lights, and a privacy wall create a year-round retreat under roof. A separate fire pit nook with hammock swings and a porch swing sits tucked among the trees. Just 4 miles from downtown Scottsville, minutes to the James River, and about 24 miles to Charlottesville and UVA — a rare turnkey retreat, simple-living lifestyle, or income property with documented rental performance.
