Thursday's Travels!

Take Me Home Country Roads to the Place I Belong - West Virginia

                                                   



It's Summer and I have been reflecting on our beautiful State and all that it has to offer. Fayetteville in particular.

 My husband and I were blessed several years ago, we had the opportunity to purchase back his boyhood home in Fayetteville, West Virginia where we both were raised. The house was built by the Montgomery's as a cottage in 1865. Nestled on two acres of property in downtown , all of its previous owners have lovingly kept the original windows and the original wood siding.

Over the past 25 or so years, the flavor of our small town has changed as we knew it growing up,.
Gone are the days of the sleepy little hometown where the kids hung out on the street corners. You walk downtown today and you find mountain bikes, kayaks, rafts, strapped to the roofs of cars- ready to take full advantage of the great outdoors.

Fayetteville has become a melting pot of young professional people that love the outdoors bringing with them diverse backgrounds, talents, and a beautiful energy to this place I call home. 




 
New River Gorge Bridge
The longest steel-arched bridge in the Western Hemisphere. Every third weekend in October parachutists from all over the world come to take their jump off the bridge.  The weekend will recognize over 100,000 visitors.
 
 
 
 
 
 Feel Like Getting A Little Wet Today?
We've Got It!
 
 
 
 
Maybe Rock Climbing is the Ticket!
 
 
 
 
 
 Whether Biking or Hiking - you will find beautiful trails to discover!
 
 
 
 
 
How About a 30 minute drive to Babcock State Park
for an afternoon picnic?
 
 
You will find an outdoor experience waiting for you in Fayetteville.
Come for the Weekend - and there's a good chance  you might not want to leave.
 
 
 
We Promise to Make You Kindly Welcome!

XOXO

Is It All About the View?

   Welcome to our new listing at 299 Flat Top Lake in Ghent, West Virginia

 photo flattoplakehousesharon_zps43c7c668.jpg
View at the Lake is stunning. The expansive decks and lower grassy area gives you an Open Invitation to Enjoy! The house is situated on 3.3 acres and the asking price is $475,000. We were called in to stage and list the property for sale.
See what you think!
 
 
        Kitchen Before/After
 
 
 
The white appliances were changed out to stainless that compliment the wormy chestnut cabinetry and updates the whole appearance of the kitchen. Add a lamp with an oversized bowl of green apples and you are good to go!

Make certain to keep your countertops clean and uncluttered.
 

 Upper Level Deck Area


Why not make a statement with a red umbrella and Make It Fun!
 
 
Lower Level Family Room
 
 

The best use of the family room on the lower level was not being utilized for comfort. We added chairs, a side chest with lamp, books for reading and grounded the room with a great print above the fireplace.
 
 
                                                         Master Bedroom Before/After


 
 The master was given a lighter and more serene appearance. With a neutral cover, we replaced the lamps with beautiful glass ones that gleamed. Freshened the room with new pillows. Again, notice the difference in wall color. Warmer and more Welcoming!
 

 So is All About the View?

 

The View is very important when marketing property and particularly when it comes to water, nature, mountains , desert or just a beautiful piece of property. However, if the interior of the home does not reflect the same value of beauty, there is a void and unsettling of the human spirit.
