    A custom home (FULLY FURNISHED WITH A YEAR'S SUPPLY OF WOOD, AND 6 MONTHS OF CANNED FOOD!!!) In the face of a nuclear war, you and your family will be nestled 3,400 feet up in the Appalachian Mountains of Southwest Virginia! This Appalachian home will offer you a promising refuge in the wake of a nuclear war! The Appalachian Mountains are best know for their rugged terrain, dense forests, and remote locations! We are far from military targets and urban centers! Living in the Appalachians reduces the risk of being in the path of a direct, nuclear strike, or severe, radioactive fallout! The surrounding forests are rich in natural resources, making this area ideal for long term survival! There are several fresh water streams, rivers, and waterfalls that run throughout the mountains! This is critical for drinking and irrigating crops, should it become necessary to grow food! The forests also provide an array of wild life, such as wild turkey and deer! There are an abundance of fertile valleys that are nestled between the mountains that make it possible for small scale farming! This will become a top priority in a world where food could become scarce! We are living in uncertain times, and the Appalachian Mountains can provide you with the peace of mind, knowing that if the bottom falls out, and supply chains become severely disrupted, that you will have a resource rich, secluded, defensible area to call home! This home provides a PRIVATE setting giving you peace of mind, and above all else SAFETY! Wake up each morning to living a peaceful, never- ending vacation 3,400 feet up in the Appalachian Mountains of Southwest, Virginia! This home offers 4 bedrooms, (with the washer and dryer being in the 4th bedroom.

Being 3,400 feet up, you can just imagine the views, and peace of mind that this unique property has to offer in this ever increasing, crazy world in which we now live! All of this peace and tranquility on 1.98 acres of land which is also rich in coal! ( I will be leaving enough wood for a whole winter as well!)

    What the owner loves about this home
    I love the privacy and serenity of being 3,400 ft. Up in the Appalachian Mountains of Southwest, Virginia! The huge stone fireplace and inside, custom, stone stairs, the large, stone front porch, the 60 ft. Norwegian Spruce Tree in the front yard that looks like the biggest Christmas Tree you have ever seen!!!, the gorgeous kitchen with black, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and warm, oak cabinets, the jacuzzi that is inserted outside on the top deck outside of the master bedroom! Did I mention the mountain top views from the master bedroom are simply extraordinary! I promise you, that you have never heard birds sing like this!! All major shopping is just 4 miles down the mountain! We are 4 miles from a Super Walmart, Bob Evans Restaurant, Apple Bee's, pizza Hut, Subway, McDonald's, Burger King, Taco Bell, Lowes, Dollar Tree, Sam's Club, Food City, Dollar General, Burkes, Gabe's, Shoe Show, Ollies, Ashley Furniture, and the Mercer Mall is just 8 miles away with many stores to choose from including Bath and Body Works, Rural King, Roses etc. The Elementary, Middle, and High School are just 5 miles down the mountain. You will feel as though you are on a never- ending vacation here! (Sorry, no lease purchase options available!) Thank you, and have a nice day/ night!
