VIRGINIA
LEXINGTON-ROCKBRIDGE COUNTY
Lexington lies at the southern end of
the Shenandoah Valley, about 50 miles
north of the Roanoke Valley in Virginia-an
area bordered by Rockbridge
County, the home of the famous Natural
Bridge.
For Lori Sadler, this market is an easy
sell as an agent for Lexington Real Estate
Connection.
" Lexington offers the small town feel,
because it is a small town, " Sadler says.
" We have the two universities here. And
we have rural areas. We have mountains.
We have rivers. It's lovely that way. "
In this setting, she says, log homes
are not in high demand nor are they
widely available.
More popular are in-town houses at
Lexington, which offers pedestrians a
friendly atmosphere.
" There are several homes that have
been purchased that are $500,000, " she
says.
Yet you can buy a house within a
half-mile walking distance of the downtown
for $250,000 and up, Sadler says.
Some have been remodeled. Yet some
buyers are simply looking for " good
bones " and are willing to do renovations,
Sadler says.
Many retirees coming to the region
are graduates of Lexington's universities,
Sadler says. " The retirees are looking for
one-floor living. And you've got folks
that want a historic house. "
Usually, though, it's cheaper to live in
Rockbridge County, where taxes are less
than downtown Lexington, Sadler says.
Raw mountain land in this area can
be fetched for about $5,000 an acre,
Sadler says.
WES T VIRGINIA
LEWISBURG-GREENBRIER COUNTY
Jill Allman easily sells the charms of
Lewisburg and Greenbrier County, West
Virginia, as an owner of Greenbrier Real
Estate Service. And, here, she meets buyers
interested in the area because of everything
that it offers- " from outdoor
activities and just the quality of life. "
The James River, South River and
Maury River all offer waterfront property
- a sought-after category in this region,
Sadler says. " It's just not available very
often. "
This
4-bedroom,
3-bath home
in Lexington,
Virginia, had
an asking price
of $339,000
as we went to
press.
