Step onto 223 Shope Creek Road and watch the calendar rewind to 1905. This two-story weather-board farmhouse stands on 14 peaceful acres where wagon ruts once crossed the valley and the Shope family’s name took root. An old timber-frame barn and glass-pane greenhouse wait for the right hands to revive their stories, while a sturdy detached garage is ready for today’s gear. The home still drinks from its own cold spring—mountain water straight to your tap—so every sip feels like heritage. Out front the terrain is gentle enough for gardens, goats, or a soccer kick-about. The property faces Northwest to ridges that frame sunsets over Blue Ridge peaks. Own this place and you’re not just buying square footage; you’re boarding a time machine where blackberry winters melt into firefly summers and every dawn pens a new line in a 120-year love letter to the land. Lace up your boots—the next chapter of Shope Creek history is waiting for your signature. Portion of PIN being sold. Approx 14 acres.
