About This Home
Charming 3 bed/2.5 bath home in highly sought-after Poplar Forest – 3,008 Sq Ft on 0.63 semi-wooded acres with a seasonal water view. Welcome to this beautifully maintained home nestled on a spacious lot with mature trees and a stream that flows into nearby Poplar Forest Lake. This property offers the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience—enjoy excellent public schools and lower Bedford County taxes while staying just minutes from all of the amenities Lynchburg has to offer (shopping, dining, and five colleges, including Liberty University). Inside, you'll find over 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space featuring exotic tigerwood hardwood floors on the main level, a large great room with vaulted ceiling and gas-burning fireplace, and oversized bedrooms with ceiling fans for comfort. The sunroom, ideal as a cozy reading nook or elegant formal dining room, offers peaceful views of the wooded lot and natural light year-round. The home’s kitchen boasts custom solid oak cabinetry, while both upstairs showers have been tastefully updated. The finished lower level includes ample storage throughout, a spacious cedar-lined closet, a large family room (perfect for a home gym or media space), and a shop with a dedicated entrance that could easily be converted into a fourth bedroom. Enjoy outdoor living with a newly installed deck (October 2024) ready for your finishing touch, a large driveway with a carport, shed, large trees, and a gurgling stream. Thomas Jefferson’s Poplar Forest, his historic summer home, is just half a mile away and is the perfect location for history buffs or those looking for a serene, car-free location to walk, run, or bike. Additional highlights include lifetime-warranted TriGuard Multi-Layer Attic Insulation with solar exhaust fan (installed May 2023), HVAC with BLU-QR and REME-HALO UV air purification system, newer carpet in all bedrooms (October 2022), and a commercial-grade Speed Queen washer/dryer set. If you’re looking for a unique home with character and an unbeatable location, this is the one for you. 50 year luxury shingles were installed in September 2023!
