i think i like this little life.
What these sellers have done to this 120 year old farmhouse is brilliant. We found this gem a few years ago and now they are ready to turn the page somewhere new!
Crisp autumns, lazy summers
Residing here requires a deep understanding of the cricket’s chirp, the frolic of wildlife, and what it means to be neighbors. Driving down the narrow road to your unpaved double wide driveway, and entering through the wisteried archway, will instantly relax those weary bones. You’ll be greeted by the covered porch where you can sip and practice your southern charm.
Open Aired.
Come into a nice open area fit for living and dining. Rooms have vinyl plank flooring with ceiling fan. There’s a nice natural glow where the sun beams in and there’s enough room for cozy nights and family dinners. At the end find your abundantly spaced kitchen.
Hearty Homemade meals.
Your eat-in kitchen has been newly painted with wood cabinets adorned with new gold hardware. Your equipped with smooth top cooking, butcher block island/countertop, double sink, dishwasher, and fridge. A great kitchen to gather, create family dinners, or commune with the morning sun. This kitchen has access to the laundry room which can store cleaning supplies, tools, and/or be a pet feeding station. You will also have access to the great outdoors, but before we do that, let’s do some pillow talking.
Sweet Sleep.
At the head of the home lies it’s main sleeping quarters, which can also be converted into a family room. This room provides the comfort of a restful sleep as well as providing a walk in closet for clothes and storage. The closet also has an addition storage room at the rear. Conveniently located is a full ensuite bath with shower and tons of room, add a bath for those Calgon moments.
Up and Away.
Make your way upstairs to three additional bedrooms. These rooms are amply sized with hardwoods that have been freed from former carpet. All have ceiling fans and have a full bath with clawfoot tub and pedestal sink—a place of relaxation for sure.
Where the Wild Things Are
What you find in the exterior of the home lends itself to a plethora of possibilities. You don’t just have a rocking chair worthy front porch, but you have a backyard that can accommodate any event. You can spy on Bambi and Thumper as they frolic around the large backyard, perhaps soak in a hot tub, or entertain guests as you gather round the fire pit, grilling shrimp on the barbie. The two mature trees that flank the extra parcel towards the back provides a romantic backdrop and your detached shed will help your garden grow! Asking for a cup a sugar won’t be a problem with your friendly and warm neighbors.
Surround Yourself in Serenity
I love this property for the character it portrays. She’s old, but sturdy and will give you a home that is full of calm and comfort. If you are looking for a more tranquil residence with convenience to the interstate, Castle Glen Winery, Kings Dominion, North Anna Battlefield Park, and Doswell fairgrounds in addition to the nearby country store and antiques, this is your home! A true gem with many stories to tell and many more to cherish.
