This beautifully updated quiet piece of paradise lies nestled between Halifax and South Boston, convenient to both shopping and restaurants. The entry boasts a beautiful large living/great room and sunroom with wood floors (throughout the main floor), a partial cathedral ceiling, huge Pella windows and views overlooking the pond and woods. The newly repainted home has room for everyone with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and room to expand with unfinished (444 square ft) area above the garage that already has electrical. There is also a beautiful upstairs sunroom with stained glass, private deck and picture/bay windows. The original cottage has a large kitchen, pantry, laundry and stone fireplace with wood burning fireplace, as well as a first floor master suite with 2 walk in closets. Upstairs are the other 2 bedrooms, bathroom with clawfoot tub and each bedroom has skylights and their own walk in closet! There is also plenty of storage in each bedroom and their is also a large hall closet.
There have been soooo many updates as it was to be our forever home. New appliances, HVAC, well sleeve, pump, and larger tank installed, leaf filters, home repainted and boards updated and replaced. Some trees cleared and new native gardens added, 10x16 greenhouse, garden pond, 10x20 shed and the back yard reseeded to name just a few. Please ask for the full update list.
Home just renewed with a 2-10 warranty which will transfer at settlement. The home has also been on a pest and appliance/mechanical contract since owned by us.
Raleigh/Durham are 45 minutes away and Clarksville, Virginia with the fabulous Buggs Island Lake/John H Kerr is even less, so bring your boat!

What the owner loves about this home
What I love about this home, without out a doubt would be the large picture windows, porches, decks, views and the quiet. I also love that it is convenient to everything downtown has to offer.
Being able to watch the deer down at the pond (which is in a conservation easement) or even in the back yard, is so peaceful. There is nothing like having your morning coffee on any of the porches or decks to start your day off with peace and joy.
The hardwoods on the interior of the home are amazing as well. And I love to cook, let alone the amount of guests you can fit in the kitchen/dining area! The home is amazing for entertaining!
