If These Walls Could Talk. .. Oh Wait, I Can. I'm the house you've been dreaming about—but never thought you'd find. Nestled beside the peaceful stretch of the Wolf Creek Greenway, I've stood proudly in Vinton since 1864. I've seen lifetimes pass, love letters written by candlelight, muddy boots clomp across my original floors, and secrets tucked gently into my plaster walls. Sure, I have a few imperfections—but who doesn't after more than 150 years of life? Every creak and every mark in my wood tells a story. And while I've embraced modern touches (wait 'til you see my kitchen—total glow-up), I've made sure to keep my soul intact. Come on in, my main rooms are spacious and full of light. Pull back the curtains and watch the sunlight dance through my windows—all new, don't worry my original specs are resting in the basement beside dusty mason jars and forgotten treasures. I have five fireplaces that keep me cozy in winter and serve as little altars for your favorite keepsakes in summer. Let's talk luxury, I've got a primary suite on the main level with a large soaking tub under a chandelier (you're welcome), and a flex space just off the bath for your yoga mat, Rower, or meditation nook. Upstairs? Two grand guest rooms, one used as an office, and a former closet that's now a full-on podcast studio. You'll want to step up into each space - yes, literally, and feel the charm of my 19th-century bones. Don't skip the bathroom upstairs, it redefines "room with a view. " Before you head back down, step out onto the balcony and take it all in, my 3.2 acres of rolling land (that feels like 10), a neighboring farm, and sunrises that deserve applause. Outside, I've got three decks for entertaining, a grand front porch for rocking chairs, lemonades and picture-perfect sunsets, and a two-story barn that's home to horses, goats, and stories you'll soon be telling. The silo still stands proud after all these years. Three separate pastures (or one really big one) complete with 4 board fencing, an old pump house, a run-in shed and a year-round creek. There is a separate section of fencing where you will find a pair of pigs with garden ambitions bigger than yours. Did I mention two separate gardens? Despite my age, I've kept up, I'm on public water, upgraded to public sewer, and just minutes from downtown Vinton, 15 minutes to downtown Roanoke, and steps from the Blue Ridge Parkway. You'll feel a world away, but still close to everything that matters. I've been abandoned before, but I'm thriving now. I'm ready for someone who sees beauty in history, purpose in land, and a future full of possibility.

Low Density Residential District
The R-1, low density residential district is established for areas of the county within the urban service area with existing low-middle density residential development, with an average density of from one to three units per acre, and land which appears appropriate for such development. These areas are generally consistent with the neighborhood conservation land use category as recommended in the comprehensive plan. In addition, where surrounding development and the level of public services warrant, these areas coincide with the development category recommended in the plan. This district is intended to provide the highest degree of protection from potentially incompatible uses and residential development of a significantly different density, size, or scale, in order to maintain the health, safety, appearance and overall quality of life of existing and future neighborhoods. In addition to single-family residences, only uses of a community nature which are generally deemed compatible are permitted in this district. This would include parks and playgrounds, schools and other similar neighborhood activities.
