Gem of a Victorian farmhouse, minutes from town, yet 'out'. Lovely wood floors, pocket doors, wonderful wood trim, spacious home with two porches (up and down). Detached building with a hot tub, 2 car garage. The charm of yesterday with the upgrades you want, including central air, remodeled baths, updated kitchen, etc.
This gem of a house offers the best of old and new--the charm of an older house with wonderful space, woodwork, turret, porches, and the convenience of modern living inside. Flexible floor plan would allow a first floor bedroom, if desired. Wonderful lot with mature trees and shrubs, and many perennials in the garden. Large 2 car garage with upstairs storage. Separate spa building with hot tub. Wrap porch on main level, balcony on second level. Great views of the mountains, including Augenbaugh's Gap. Full attic. Great location close to town, yet with country living. Although this house is in Valley View Estates, it is not subject to the deed restrictions (grandfathered). This is the original farmhouse for the development. Gas fireplace, gleaming hardwood floors.

Lovely Victorian in a county setting. Older charm yet remodeled with all replacement windows, central air, original hardwood floors, eat in kitchen with a bar, formal dining room, and a large veranda that overlooks the yard. Instant on hot water. Too many features to name; it's must see!
