Description
LITTLE PADDOCKS, a home custom-built by C.L. Lewis, has been a landmark in Bedford County. First time on the market, it is a sprawling 3 bedroom, 2 bath ranch with a 1 3/4 story addition that added an awesome great room with fireplace and upper level bonus area with office, additional bath and bedroom. The living room has a cathedral ceiling and natural stone fireplace. The kitchen and master en-suite also have fireplaces and access to the large brick and stone patio. The 6 acre mini-farm includes a 60' x 12' horse barn with electricity, hot and cold water, multiple stalls, tack room and wash area, plus riding ring and open pastures. The 36' x 18' in-ground pool has a newer liner and pump. The well has a new pump, two newer hot water heaters and a RUUD 10-seer heat pump provide comfort to the addition. The shingle roof is less than 10 years old. A lovely place to raise a family, ride a pony or two, and entertain friends! Only 10 minutes from Forest shopping and dining.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOtter River has been a wonderful place for my daughter. I was worried moving into the area and away from a school we loved dearly. But, it really is a wonderful little place. It is small so getting to know the teachers and staff is easy, and they all learn who your child is. I love the small school setting and it has been great for us.Parent Review4y ago - Forest Middle School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThree of our children have attended FMS, and it has been a great experience. When something has come up for one of our children, they have been absolutely wonderful in making sure our student gets what they need In several instances, faculty/staff at FMS have gone out of their way to make sure our children are aware of various programs that would help our children and develop their interests. We are very grateful for the people there who see the potential of each child!Parent Review3mo ago - Jefferson Forest High School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school gave great accommodations for my child with learning disability. The administration was quick to change her schedule and make sure that my child could handle the classes. The counselors are very busy but they are trying to be there for every student. The teachers are a mix, some are tired of the disrespectful, careless students that do not want to succeed at anything. I do not blame the; they have the hardest jobs with kids that do not listen and do not do what they suppose to do because they are not disciplined at home. Other kids are high achievers, studying hard and behaving well. Every school we had bullying, in this school we had none so far, which is great. Kids accept students that are handicapped or autistic, they encourage them and do not put them down. Much better than most private schools! Their vocational programs are amazing opportunities, some students can finish school and land a job as an electrician apprentice or hairstylist. Make money right away! I love this school and I really appreciate the treatment my kid gets from the nurses, teachers and staff. She is kind to them and they are very kind to her as well. Thank you JFHS!Parent Review9mo ago
