Description

Own a piece of Shenandoah Valley History! Never before offered, this piece of Valley history has been in the Fishburne Family for over 150 years. Lovingly crafted in 1902, long before the interstate was built, this massive Victorian home was part of a much larger family farm that it was separated from by the addition of I-81 in the 60's. The home is built on a rock-solid poured concrete foundation and has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, plus large living and dining rooms and a spacious eat-in country...Own a piece of Shenandoah Valley History! Never before offered, this piece of Valley history has been in the Fishburne Family for over 150 years. Lovingly crafted in 1902, long before the interstate was built, this massive Victorian home was part of a much larger family farm that it was separated from by the addition of I-81 in the 60's. The home is built on a rock-solid poured concrete foundation and has 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, plus large living and dining rooms and a spacious eat-in country kitchen. Most of the original oak woodwork in still in tact and never painted, so the beautiful grain is still visible. Updated 400 amp service has been installed in the house with two, 200 amp modern panel boxes. It has a drilled well and 3 full bathrooms, one featuring the original claw-foot tub. This is the place that a young farm family dreams of taking on, with it's old chicken coop, several outbuildings, and a sturdy barn that is ready for hay storage and FFA/4H cattle, sheep and hogs. The beautiful hayfields will supply ample feed for the livestock. It is private, but very close to shopping, and schools. A must see!
