Real Estate Saturday: February 22, 2014
by admin on Feb.22, 2014, under Images, Real Estate
It’s been a long week in North Carolina. While snow was still on the ground, the temperatures climbed to 70 degrees. Within 24 hours, a tornado watch! More cold coming next week with even more wacky February weather? It’s all getting a bit draining.
So this week, no real estate “news.” I thought it might provide a nice break to just sit and look at some really beautiful rural real estate. Nothing to buy, nothing to “click,” nothing to calculate – just enjoy!!!
Stick a horse in a photo of rural property and you’ll get my attention! While I’ve never owned a horse, I can picture myself on 20 acres or so with a nice pasture and few “rescued” older horses. In my experience, they make great neighbors – pun intended.
What else catches my eye? Water. Creek, pond, lake, river, or oceanfront. I’m equal-opportunity when it comes to having a natural source of water on real estate I own – or appreciate.
While not necessary, having a posh estate in the country wouldn’t hurt my feelings either! This property above certainly has a lot to offer – while resting comfortably in its private and rural surroundings.
Another for the “estate” list – and another property that seemed destined to be built here. Don’t know about you, but I can “hear” the quiet!
Now here’s one for the “I wouldn’t do” list. Why? It’s just too much house for the majority of people.
However, it has a fantastic setting and it is obvious that some care was taken to build this beautiful home to take advantage of the surrounding view.
I didn’t take much notice of location when selecting these properties but this one looks like it would fit nicely in the Virginia countryside. A stately home sitting in its protective pocket of trees and a beautifully maintained farm and barn area.
Sometimes I really think I was born in the wrong century…
Happy Weekend!
