Description

If you've ever dreamed of living in near seclusion, this is the home for you. The home features a carport, sunroom, and a path to a year-round bubbling brook. You will need a 4WD or AWD vehicle for this property. The gravel road is maintained but steep in places This is a cute little 2-story stick-built home with 1 bedroom, an office/bedroom in the basement, and 2 bathrooms, one on each level.
The home is a mile up Middle Ridge near the end of E. Fork Rd.
$1300 a month with a year-long lease.
Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains with pure gravity-fed spring water to drink.
Includes septic tank and washer & dryer connections (bring your own set) (There is a set there for your use, but the owner doesn't know if they work or not, but probably do)
Mini Split HVAC upstairs and down.
There are wall Gas units as a backup heat source if you supply the propane.
There is a Sunroom for you plant lovers.
Piano must stay, it's too heavy to move and the home is partially furnished with some older living room furniture and a dining set.
We think Spectrum Internet available but check for yourself to make sure.
Tenants will need to get a P.O. Box (mailman doesn't go that far out)
Lawn is mostly moss but some weed eating is expected from tenant
The home isn't too far from town. However, the driveway is long and gravel and may not be ideal if you plan to make trips to Town more than once a day.
*Very steep gravel road*
