About this space
Within walking distance to Southern Virginia University (.6 miles) and downtown , and a short drive to Virginia Military Institute (7.7 miles), Washington & Lee University (7 miles), and Virginia Horse Center (9.8 miles). This recently updated, Victorian Style, century old home is at the center of many great educational, historical, and outdoor attractions.
This 4 bed 1.5 bath home sits at the base of the Blue Ridge Pkwy and within driving distance of the Appalachian Trail and Natural Bridge
The space
Sitting on two lots this historic home has plenty of room for your group to gather. The property includes the corner lot next to the house that could be used for picnics or outdoor games and bbq's.
Each of the 4 bedrooms include a queen bed.
The cozy living room is furnished with a couch, loveseat, and armchair and is a great place to just relax.
Guest access
Most cars in the neighborhood park right on the street, so parking on the street directly in front of the house is fine. There is also an alleyway behind the house where cars can pull in next to the small shed for parking.
Getting around town is very easy whether you decide to drive or walk. Downtown, shopping, and some restaurants are within a short distance if you prefer to walk.

Perfect place for family gathering for Liberty graduation
The property was perfect for our family to stay for LU’s graduation weekend. The hosts were accessible and responsive. They were accommodating when I messed up the reservation and got that straightened out with no hassle. The home is beautiful and spotless. Loved it.

Classic Vintage Home
This is a classic vintage home in a quiet neighborhood. It has plenty of space to accommodate our group of seven adults. As pictures show, the woodwork is beautiful. I would love to have seen it in it’s prime filled with antiques and the large family it was probably built for. Our group was attending the Buena Vista Fiddlers Convention and it was just what we needed; a place to get away, rest comfortably, share meals and make memories.

Wedding weekend
We were in Lexington for a wedding. The house was perfectly located for both the downtown dinner rehearsal and the farm wedding venue. The house was easily accessible from roadside parking. The house was lovely but a bit creaky... no sneaking around in this house! The one bathroom/shower was a bit challenging but fine for 6-8 adults with some shower planning for two nights. Took a long time to get the access code to the house which made coordinating with all out of town family difficult.

Charming home in a lovely, walkable neighborhood
We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely, special home. It is very comfortable from the furniture and beds to the high ceilings and plenty of room to spread out. The bathrooms are a challenge especially since we had aged parents with us and the only shower was a very tall, claw-foot tub. Charming, but not practical for people with mobility challenges. The house is set on a huge lot, with a beautiful porch we enjoyed sitting on. We loved the neighborhood in such a nice town with lots of public art and parks. We enjoyed the nearby restaurants and exploring the town. The hosts were easy to work with and responsive. We would stay here again with a younger crowd. Thanks for opening this special house to us.

We have never stayed at a house like this. Definitely an experience with so much character and well maintained features. We had a little hiccup at check in but Nathan and his cleaning team were able to help us and solve the issue within the hour. Definitely would recommend staying here.

Great historic house!
This house was really fun to stay in! It was perfect for our group of 6. It was roomy and spacious and we loved the porch out front! It was clean and well kept. The listing does say 2 showers and there is only 1. That worked out ok but would have been nice to have the 2. Overall would highly recommend especially if you are visiting kids that go to SVU. Great location!

Beautiful old house
The house was clean and very spacious. If you love older homes, you will love it. All the quirks and charms of an older home, but the kitchen was full of modern appliances and a new counter and everything that needed to be updated was. It had a Keurig with a refillable coffee cup (an update from a previous review). It is right in town, so you will hear church bells from across the street, etc.

Wonderful property!
2 couples stayed at this grand and elegant home. Very clean. Nice comfortable beds. Big, comfortable home - plenty of room to spread out. Very old home with high ceilings and amazing woodwork. Lovely hardwood floors. Claw foot bathtub. Nathan, the owner, was very responsive and cordial. We loved the home and the location. Planning to go back next year.

An OK place
Beds were comfortable. Towels were thin, not enough for the # of people staying and smelled like pee. Out of liquid soap in the bathroom. Black sheets in one bedroom- very unappealing. Shower didn’t drain great. Kitchen was fine. Could use some basic tea/coffee like some B+B’s. but that’s the hosts choice. Ok for one night but would probably not stay again.

Buena Vista Farmhouse
The home was beautiful. Clean and inviting. Stunning woodwork and floors! We truly enjoyed our stay as we normally stay in individual hotel rooms and have no place to gather. Lovely seating areas, dining room and kitchen all made for great gathering places. With 4 adults, we each had our own separate space and were never crowded. Quiet neighborhood, cute town. Would stay there again.
