Timber Frame Home on 22+ Acres in VA Mountains

TIMBER FRAME HOME ON 22 ACRES IN THE VA MOUNTAINS!  *SOLD!

Set on 22 very private acres, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers energy-conscious design with a very personal sense of style.  The Timber Frame construction boasts straw bale insulation with stucco siding.  This creates deep set windows that make you feel like you are in a European cottage that has been there for hundreds of years.

The timber frame construction adds delightful architectural interest throughout the house and is evident as you enter the foyer of this home with wood board pine floors throughout.

The center of the home vaults two stories to the beamed ceiling, and maximizes heat distribution from the central wood-stove to the rooms on the second floor.

The bright and sunny living area utilizes lots of windows and situated to make the most of the passive heat gain from the sun in winter.

The kitchen has concrete counters and custom cabinetry in Ash & Chestnut, made by a local wood artist.  Wide board pine flooring adds to the old world charm of this unique property. The dining area is situated to enjoy the outdoor scenery while dining.  Or, you might choose to take a picnic lunch outside and enjoy the fresh mountain breezes.

There are two bedrooms on opposite ends of the upper level. This would be an ideal location to hideaway with a good book or just enjoy the views.

The bedrooms are very spacious and sunny, both with storage lofts above.

A full walk-out lower level, already divided into two rooms, offers expansion potential and would make excellent creative or play space.

This home is nestled on 22.233 private acres with views in several directions, some pasture but mostly wooded with additional building sites and abundant wildlife. Lots of gardening space for those that would like to raise their own vegetables. Adjoining this property is a 100 acre tract used for cattle grazing.

A small mountain stream meanders through the property creating an ideal spot for an afternnon picnic.

A little reminiscent of a castle, this playhouse will entertain your young family members and visitors.

Two outbuildings add farm functionality, though one currently houses the seller’s kiln.  The larger building has several bays and offers plenty of storage.  There’s a small branch on the property, too.

The property is currently home to 2 donkeys, who keep the pasture areas mowed.

Besides the aesthetics of straw bale construction, there’s the green factor.  Straw bale insulated homes are more energy efficient over traditionally insulated homes (a fact supported by the US Department of Energy report, “House of Straw”), have three times the fire resistance (due to the density of the bales, the supply of oxygen – required for fire – is reduced), and these homes minimize the consumption of wood in building.  If you are looking for a space-saving, entergy-efficient home, come take a look at this 2-bedroom, 1-bath Timber Frame home on 22+ acres located in Grayson County, just east of Mouth of Wilson, the home is a convenient drive to Independence, and just a few minutes more to either Jefferson, NC, or Galax, VA. This unique property is offered at $240,000.   M155  *SOLD!
