This lovely home is located in the desirable Owls Nest area which is in the heart of Centreville/Greenville. This wonderful property sits on just under 2 acres on a quiet lane just off of Old Kennett Pike.

To the left of the formal living space is an amazing room that features 20 foot ceilings, hardwood floors and all of the original wood work, beams, and trusses of the original barn.
