About This Home

As of August 2019

A Rivers Edge Lodging! This picturesque 1930's Craftsman style home rests on THE prime piece of real estate in the enchanting resort town of Damascus, Virginia.. Amenities as well as potential house and apartment combined will accommodate as many as 28 guests in one property, more than any other property in town. This property affords the owner a virtual monopoly on rentals to large groups of visitors. The expansive house(not including the apartment features 8 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, as well as 3 living rooms! The bright and open 11' x 23' gourmet kitchen with granite counter tops and clerestory windows is adjoined at either end by a bay breakfast nook overlooking Laurel Creek in the rear yard, a butler serving area, a computer nook and a beautiful 14' x 14' dining room with French doors, antique chandelier and gorgeous oak moldings. The main living room is 14.5' x 28' and focuses on a double sided brick fireplace with gas logs on both sides! This house is skillfully and thoughtfully set up to be subdivided into 3 separate rental quarters with private entrances, in the event the owner chooses to rent to 3 smaller groups rather than one large group. The 3 sections can easily be locked off from one another from the interior when required. No keys are required, as the exterior doors feature Schlage touch pad entry locksets. The outside of the house is equally amazing with a rear deck with remote Sunbrella awning overlooking Laurel Creek, a covered deep front porch, and a large second floor deck. The rear yard affords an area for Adirondack chair seating with fire pit on the banks of charming Laurel Creek. If you have been looking for a place to call home or a second home with an income stream set in place, then you owe yourself a serious look at this unique property. Rare is desirable and I know from experience that this property is rare and enjoys an incomparable location in the heart of Damascus. Call today for your showing!
