About this home
UNIQUE AND HISTORIC! UNPACK THE POTENTIAL OF THIS 214-YEAR-OLD SHENANDOAH VALLEY HOME AND TURN IT INTO AN ELEGANT SHOWPLACE! If houses could talk, this one would speak volumes. Built in 1811, during the nation's infancy, it later bore witness to the Civil War in which it was said to have been a hospital. In 1864, it was a division headquarters for George Armstrong Custer. The flat roof facilitated its use as a flag signal station seen from high points in Winchester via telescope. Across the road is the final resting place of country music legend Patsy Cline and the bell tower erected in her honor. Aside from history, today's buyer will enjoy this property's commuter-convenient location on Rt. 522, near routes Rt. 50 and Interstates 81 and 66. Just a short drive to Winchester, Front Royal and Stephens City, restaurants, shopping, services and schools. On a 3.23-acre level corner lot with a 28x40 inground swimming pool that goes from 3 feet to 8 feet, with diving board. Two-car garage, 25x40, with two garage doors in the front and one in the rear. Circular driveway. Stately covered porches with pillars. The 8x24 front porch overlooks peaceful Shenandoah Memorial Park and the 12x24 back porch overlooks the swimming pool. A grand entry door leads to a spacious living room lined with shelves, allowing it to double as a library and a showcase for antiques and collectibles. Three fireplaces with mantles - two on either ends of the living room and one in the formal dining room. Recessed and track lighting. Up to six rooms serve as bedrooms, all with closets, including one on the main level with an adjoining full bath, and a large primary upstairs bedroom suite across the front of the house with two closets and an attached full bathroom. A third full bath serves the other bedrooms. The large kitchen features flooring of repurposed random-sized marble tiles, a large pantry, and cabinets with two Lazy Susans. Mid-century knotty pine paneling is in the kitchen and two upstairs bedrooms. Separate formal dining room. New metal roof about 5 years old. House's brick was repointed about 10 years ago. Updated 200-amp electric service for the house and 220 in the garage. The owner uses the 1301 Front Royal Pike address but public records show it as 124 Laurelwood Drive. Sold strictly as-is. Measurements approximate. On well and septic. Septic may be for fewer bedrooms. Fireplaces are not in use and may need work. Moisture in the basement.
