Wintertime –
• This two story home has a forced air gas furnace that usually does a good job of heating the downstairs (except in extraordinarily frigid times). The furnace doesn't heat upstairs quite as well. To keep it comfortable, there are also wall-mounted heaters in all bedrooms and in the living room. There is also a good heater in the upstairs bathroom ceiling light/vent fixture.

Summertime –
• The house does not have central air-conditioning. For the most part, the mountains and breezes keep Monterey comfortable in the summer. Still, on the warmest days, it can be a bit much. Fortunately, it almost always cools outside to a comfortable level in the evening. And usually if you open the windows and use the fans, it will be fine. The windows are all new, open and close easily and have good screens.
• Air conditioners. We added one window air conditioner in the larger upstairs bedroom, with more to come for summer 2025. We prefer the windows open and a cool breeze drawn inside with the ceiling and room fans, but if the A/C appeals, have at it! The air-conditioners are removed in the winter.

The Road --
• The home is located on VA Route 220, a two lane highway. The speed limit is 25 right at the home, but it is higher very close by. Although it is not very busy, it does have some large trucks that use it, so occasionally you will hear road noise.

Children –
• I began coming to Highland County as child from the city, camping and hiking and exploring a whole new magical world. I know what a treat it is for kids, and what a joy to see it again through their eyes. You should know though, that there are not special accommodations for very young children here. There is no special furniture, child-proofing, or toys. BYO extras and good sense.
