Victory Hill Attractive and spacious brick country home with 4 bedrooms, and 3.5 baths, on 19.34+/- acres (16+/- fenced), with many extras. This beautiful 2-story home at the end of a country lane is set on prime Greenbrier Valley farmland, approximately half-wooded and half-open field, with a year-round stream. In addition to its stately manor house and several outbuildings, the property includes a large 12-run fenced kennel with water and electricity, turnkey ready for a dog boarding or breeding business. This property also holds immense potential for use as a small farm or boarding facility for a variety of animals, making it an ideal choice for those looking to venture into animal breeding or agriculture.
Three miles from the I-64 Alta exit, and a short drive off U.S. 60, the home is sited with views of the surrounding countryside. The covered front porch opens to a wainscoted entry hall leading to the living room and kitchen in the rear, or a room immediately on the left which could serve as a den, playroom or guest bedroom. Flooring throughout the main level and in the upper-level bathrooms is ceramic tile, and oak casing surrounds all the windows and doors.
The living room is highlighted with eye-catching diagonal wood paneling on two walls. This room opens to a covered patio overlooking a large field frequented by deer and an impressive variety of birds, including many bluebirds.
The kitchen and breakfast nook enjoy the same tranquil view as the living room. The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2023, with all new appliances. Features include attractive slate blue cabinetry, granite counters with a large farmhouse sink offset by a white tile backsplash, a Samsung refrigerator with a freezer drawer, a Frigidaire electric range, and a wall-mounted Samsung microwave. The breakfast nook occupies its own sunny space, surrounded by windows on three sides. The adjacent dining room has wainscoting and overlooks the front yard, offering a view of the woods across the road.
The main level also has a laundry room with Whirlpool front-loading appliances, a utility sink, a toilet, and a small shower.
An oak staircase leads to the carpeted upper level, which has a landing with a recess overlooking the front of the property. The spacious master suite incorporates a separate room, perfect for a very private home office or workout space. The master bath has a shower, a relaxing Jacuzzi soaking tub, and a solid surface vanity with two sinks. The additional bedrooms on the upper level are both corner rooms. They share a hallway bath with an attractive marble-top vanity.
A brick walkway leads from the house to a brick workshop that matches the home's exterior. For dog breeders, this space is ideal for puppy litters, with radiant 80° heat in the concrete floor.
A short stroll from the home but out of earshot, the 12 dog runs have been professionally designed to keep the canine occupants comfortable, with plenty of room to roam and individual dog houses. The substantial wire fencing enclosing and separating the runs is partly buried to prevent any unintended entrances or exits, and the kennel is equipped with electricity and running water. While this facility was intended for dogs, it could just as readily lend itself to raising chickens, goats, alpacas, or other small animals, or serve as critter-proof vegetable and flower gardens. The gates are large enough to admit a riding mower.
This beautiful, well-designed, comfortable home is an easy 15-minute drive to shopping and services in the Greenbrier County seat of Lewisburg, with easy access to I-64. The property's mid-county location offers the option of students attending elementary, middle, and high school in either the eastern or western portions of the county.
