Are you looking for a wooded mountain retreat for your family and your dogs? Then look no further than this beautiful country setting in Bedford County where the living is slower and the taxes are lower. Although located on the side of a mountain, this home is also very convenient to the charms of small-town living in Vinton, as well as the amenities of city life in Roanoke.
Situated on a 1.5-acre tract of forest land, this home offers privacy for nature lovers, with cool summer evenings and frosty autumn mornings. Custom-built in the late 1980s, this one owner home boasts 3,700 square feet of family living and lots of storage space. The two-story house has a finished walk-out basement, 6 indoor/outdoor covered kennel runs, an oversized two car garage, a wrap-around deck, a fenced in the side yard, and fenced in backyard.
The entry level boasts enough room for everyone with a large living room with a ceiling fan and a stone fireplace, a den with gas logs, a dining room, kitchen with pantry, laundry room, an extra bedroom or office space, and a full bath. The second floor features 2 large bedrooms and a guest bath, and a master bedroom with dressing area, walk-in closet, and a full bath. The basement provides even more living area with a spacious family room with wood-burning stove, full bath, and utility area. There is also a kennel room with running hot and cold water, cabinets, and counter space. (This could easily be converted into a workshop if you do not want the kennels.)
Although built in the ’80s this home has many upgrades. An addition was added in late 2015 into early 2016. Spray foam was installed in the walls for better insulation. A Mitsubishi Mini Split unit was added for heating and cooling that room. This room sports a cork floor, specialty cork accent wall, cathedral ceiling with fan, gas logs, a pass-through window to the kitchen, and large windows on three sides to enjoy the view of the woods.
At the same time the addition was built, a wrap-around deck was added, using Evergreen composite decking and vinyl clad posts and handrails. New garage doors were installed along with new entry doors, and the cedar siding of the house was stained with a solid stain. Pella windows were installed in the new addition, and the window in the living room was replaced with a Pella window. All the new windows have shades in-between the glass, including the two side entry doors. The roof was replaced about 10 years ago.
A new HVAC unit was installed in October 2018. White oak hardwood flooring was laid throughout the second floor in January 2019, and the flooring in the basement family room was replaced with a beautiful rich luxury vinyl tile. The kitchen cabinets were also refinished at this time.
This would be an ideal home to raise a family, enjoy your dogs, and relax in the beauty and serenity of a mountain-side vista.
