About this home
The view alone of the Blue Ridge Mountains from the front porch of this American Foursquare style home will make you not want to leave this beautiful property! The framework for homesteading at this property has already been built & the care this place has seen by the current owner becomes apparent when you see the well maintained condition of everything! Beautiful laminate flooring spans the entire main level & truly works so well w/ the paint color! Stainless refrigerator & gas stove add a modern feel & wonderfully complement the wood cabinets in the kitchen. The open layout between the kitchen & the living room allow you to stay connected to all the action! Built-in shelving in the dining room is a classy touch that offers great functionality, too! The second level has three well-sized bedrooms. Not only is the location of this property great, it also has almost two & a half acres w/ established fencing for horses or other animals. Only 30 minutes to Lynchburg & 40 minutes to Charlottesville. Garden space is near a yard spigot to make easy work of caring for your plants & animals! Another amazing benefit is the low tax rate in Nelson County! All of these things only help complete the picture of this fabulous property!
