About this home

A curved drive cuts through a mature landscape towards this Antebellum-style home featuring a huge in ground pool. Main level welcomes you into a gracious foyer, leading to the dining room, kitchen and great room leading to a well-designed pool area, plus a huge formal living room, and full bath. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms with the primary suite featuring a private 40’ balcony and 2 full bathrooms. Downstairs are 2 more bedrooms in a fully finished walkout basement complete with its own kitchen, living area and bath—suits multi-generational living or an exceptional Airbnb opportunity. Quality craftsmanship is evident at every turn: red oak floors on the main level, white oak on the second, vaulted ceilings, and four fireplaces. Touches of Virginia heritage bring history to life, including two mantels, doors, trim, chair rail, and stair rail—all reclaimed from a pre-Civil War Shenandoah Valley residence. Plenty of parking in carport, detached 3 car garage plus a pool shed and Horse Run in. Just a short distance to JMU, Merck and Sentara RMH, this gem is waiting for you to make your own.
