The Circular Path

More than twenty years ago I saw a need for housing options for the Boomer Generation. I believe more than ever that many Boomers will need a viable affordable living arrangement that supports and enhances the lifestyle they desire. One such option will be a small scale condominium of 2 to 6 units. This could be a large house retrofitted for the purpose with each unit a nicely finished ‘home’. This house/condo would also have a common area to support ‘community’. Each resident would enjoy total privacy, and can also enjoy the company and support of other residents if so desiring. The residents can manage their own building, and the monthly condo fee can be small (unlike those big complexes). Going on vacation? Someone is home to bring in your mail. Need to relocate? You can sell your unit and benefit from your investment. Privacy, Community, Support, Affordability. Is this idea appealing to someone you know? Please have them contact me.

This really is a crazy low price for this property:  $123,000.  Owner must sell, so a real opportunity for a prospective home owner or investor.  And what a destination:  Albemarle County, Virginia!  Blue Ridge Mountain views, excellent schools, wonderful community close to Charlottesville, VA!

 Well maintained and very solid. Super insulation for heating and cooling efficiency. New since 2009: 30 year roof, really excellent insulated windows, and most appliances. Garage and a shed with a reinforced floor (to accommodate owner’s motorcycle). Two covered carports. Large open fenced yard with great garden spots and a close-up mountain view. Convenient to Charlottesville and the Valley, located in a friendly rural neighbor adjacent to the charming town of Crozet. Close to the Crozet Elementary School, Henley Middle School, and Western Albemarle High School. Compare with other Albemarle County homes – this is a great buy and opportunity.

Albemarle County, VA

A charming country home, yet proximate to Charlottesville, this 1500 plus finished square feet 1920s bungalow was extensively renovated in 2007. Entirely gutted, and all new in 2007: drywall, floors, roof, windows, HVAC, plumbing, electric, granite counter tops, hickory cabinets, ceramic tile in bathrooms, appliances. Super insulation in attic, blown-in wet cellulose in both exterior and interior walls for energy efficiency and quiet. Very nice features: plumbing & electric fixtures, solid wood interior doors, jet tub… All top notch. There’s even a raised brick hearth with stone surround for the wood stove. The 2 acre lot is gently rolling and mostly open with great garden sites (there are currently active raised beds). Two sheds out back, one with a covered carport on either side. Very quiet location, a very lovely property. Contact me for a showing!

Spacious Log Home in White Hall

2635 White Hall Road
Crozet, VA 22932

• Price: $299,000
• MLS: 482793
• Status: Active

  MAJOR $20,000 PRICE REDUCTION!  More than $20,000 below county assessment!  Unique Log Home, beautiful interior wood tones & exposed beams, Tulikivi Soap Stone Wood Stove, soap stone countertops, large master bedroom with alcove and window with mountain views, Anderson Windows and doors throughout, skylights, new roof plus many other upgrades and repairs. This ranch home serves more like a two story home. The walkout basement is entirely finished and has a large family room, 4 rooms that can serve as bedrooms, a full bathroom, and the laundry area. The Tulikivi Wood Stove in the main level living room is a real winner for anyone wanting to heat with wood. Its mass of soap stone holds and generates a gentle warmth. The home itself was sited for passive solar heating — many windows face south to capture light and warmth. Many repairs and upgrades were made over the past year getting this home ready for the market, including power washing and sealing the entire log exterior and the wrap around deck, painting most of the interior, grading the front yard, and more. Although this home has 5 rooms all together that can serve as bedrooms, the septic system is sized for only three bedrooms - this is the perfect home for a person or families needing up to 3 bedrooms, but wanting the additional rooms for an office, den, hobby room, studio, library, etc. Heck, sometimes it’s just nice to have extra room for storage.

Ah, the location - The White Hall area of Albemarle County is sheer beauty with panoramic mountain views, rolling countryside and farm lands, vineyards, woods, and nearby access to the Blue Ridge Parkway and Appalachian Trail. Also nearby is the Sugar Hollow reservoir and adjacent parkland for fishing, hiking, mountain biking, and there is a trail from this area that goes up to Blue Hole, a spring fed swimming hole. On those hot humid summer days get rewarded for the hump up to Blue Hole by a chilling dip in its icy waters!

Historically, White Hall was a farming community. Many of the farms went bust during the depression. Over the past few decades new farms were started, vineyards as well, and some real estate development.

This location is convenient to the City of Charlottesville and Crozet. Charlottesville has a lot to offer in the way of shopping and entertainment, but in recent years Crozet has garnered some restaurants, a Harris Teeter super market, and even a couple entertainment venues. And one of the nicest county parks, Mint Spring Park, is located just outside Crozet.
