Welcome to The Farm! This is a fully restored 4-bedroom farmhouse in a park-like setting.
With 3 queen beds, 1 bunk bed, and 1 twin bed, this house sleeps up to 9 but is still cozy enough for two. The main level has a large kitchen-dining area overlooking the backyard and the Blue Ridge Parkway. There are large antique windows throughout the house with beautiful light and views of the yard and farm from every window. While you will see plenty of deer, you won't see any neighbors!
As you come in the back door, you will enter the large mud room, with plenty of space to drop off your things off and get situated. The kitchen/dining room and the powder room are both right off the mud room, so you have easy access to and from the kitchen if you are grilling outside or need to unload the car.
In the kitchen you'll find a full size refrigerator, range, dishwasher, buther block countertops and plenty of cabinet and counter space, including a coffee bar with a coffee grinder for that morning brew. The solid dining room table seats 6 comfortably and is also a great place to set up your laptop. You'll have beautiful views through the bay window into the backyard as well as views of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Going through the mud room, you will enter the den where there is a glass-top desk where you can also set up a laptop. The main bedroom is off this den. This main bedroom has a queen bed and its own bathroom with a full size shower.
Through the den, you will go into the living room where you can enjoy watching shows on the oversized couch. Through the living room and up the stairs are the other 3 bedrooms and bathroom. The 2nd and 3rd bedroom both have queen beds, ceiling fans and plenty of dresser space. The 4th bedroom (the triple bunk room) actually comes off of the 3rd bedroom, as was a common layout in houses of this era (used to be a bedroom/nursery).
Out back, there is abundant outdoor space with picnic tables, a propane grill, wood firepit and hot tub.
At the farm, you can relax in the evenings watching TV, soaking in the hot tub, watching the sun set over the back yard and roasting s’mores by the fire. There are board games & cards for the family to enjoy. The living room TV has a Nintendo Classic Edition with 30 games from the 80s and 90s. Relive the games from your childhood!
Whether you're inside the farmhouse or out back, you will enjoy the privacy of being in the woods. One thing that is unique about this property is that although the farmhouse is private and secluded, DoorDash still delivers here and Uber/Lyft will pickup and drop-off. Downtown Roanoke is just 10 minutes from your door and the Wal-Mart Supercenter is just 5 minutes away. It's remarkable how there's so much space, so close to Roanoke, yet so private. From the outdoor area, you cannot see any other houses and they cannot see (or hear) you either.
The hosts provide all toilet paper, paper towels, napkins, laundry detergent, shampoo, body wash, propane and firewood. The hot tub receives regular professional maintenance. There is a full size washer & dryer and high speed WiFi throughout the house.
We love dogs and your pets are welcome, but we all need to be responsible. Pets have an additional cleaning fee due to the size of the house and the extra cleaning needed. Pets are not allowed on furniture or beds and must be crated if left inside unattended. Pet fee covers cleaning, but not damage. There is a small fenced in yard for dogs to “do their business.” The rest of the property is large and unfenced so be please careful with dogs that will chase wildlife or have a tendency to run off.
This 100+ year old house and property was fully restored by the current owners and has been hosting guests since 2022. Although new to the VRBO platform, the owners and this property are not new to hosting. Please note that the barn is accessed via a separate driveway and is not part of the stay. Owner may access the barn periodically during your stay. Due to the size of the property, there may be land and other exterior maintenance activities (mowing, driveway raking, clearing of brush, hot tub maintenance, trash pickup, etc.) during your time at the farm. This will only occur during normal daytime hours to minimize any impact on you. Due to the secluded nature of the property, there is a security camera outside at the back door and at the barn. We value your privacy, so none of the cameras view the outside recreation area (firepit, spa, picnic tables, porch swing). Per VRBO policy, there are no interior cameras.
