FULL DESCRIPTION: This is a spacious, farm-style home on four+ acres of rural property in Cumberland County, sitting on a rise overlooking a large rolling lawn, fields, and a pond. Renters can request access to the pond, which is shared with two adjoining properties. The house has three bedrooms (one on the main floor and two upstairs) and three full baths (two on the main floor and one upstairs). There's an unfinished partial basement with tons of storage space. Bikes, exercise equipment, toys, and more could fit in the basement. The home has a large family room that's perfect for a big sofa and chairs and a large TV, and a spacious kitchen and dining area. There's an abundance of counter space and cabinets, and three super-sized closets on the main floor. This is a great home for a couple or individual who enjoys the country and likes having plenty of room to spread out, or for a family with older children. It would also be great for those who work remotely, as you have plenty of spaces that you can turn into an office. This home was built by the owner's father, who designed the quirky circular stairwell and the landing between the two upstairs bedrooms. The owner grew up in this house and lives in Richmond, and has local folks on call (contractor, plumber, electrician, HVAC tech) to handle any issues with the property as quickly as possible. The long front porch offers a calm beautiful view, perfect for reading or nature-watching or stargazing, or hanging out with family and friends. From the smaller back porch and back yard, you get a glimpse of neighbors and the pond but still have a sense of space and privacy. Renters are welcome to plant a vegetable garden in the back yard or set up a chicken coop. Deer, hummingbirds, rabbits, and other wildlife are all visible at different times from the house and its porches. The home is a couple of miles from Cartersville, a small town on the James River with a boat landing, and is minutes from Goochland and Powhatan counties. Two country stores with gas and basic necessities are short drives from the house, as well as a bank. Small cats and dogs will be considered, with a limit of two. There is a nonrefundable $250 pet deposit, and a $25 fee per pet each month. No smoking or vaping in the house. Applicants will need to supply non-family references. The rent is all-inclusive and includes: Electricity, high-speed internet, gas for the oven range, quarterly pest service, two HVAC maintenance checks per year, grass maintenance during peak growing months, and two field cuttings a year (one at the start of summer, and one at the end). The water at the house comes from a well. Driving distances: The village of Cartersville (a general store, the bank, the James River boat landing): 5 minutes Cumberland Co.
