Great opportunity to own charm, history and absolute convenience! 9 minutes from downtown Lynchburg, 8 minutes from Liberty University and 4 minutes from the essentials! This home boasts all of the charm of country living in the middle of a growing city. Great yard that feels secluded and private, hardwood floors throughout, classy architectural features and the feel of a house that has been loved and cared for properly for many years.
