This charming cottage located in the Historic district of Abingdon is situated in a very walkable and popular section of downtown. Known as "The R.J. Summers Home, the first owner was elected Commonwealth Attorney in Washington County the year the home was built. The neighborhood boasts many fine restaurants, and the trailhead of the Virginia Creeper Trail is only a block away. Barter Theatre and The Martha Washington Inn are also just a 10-minute walk along the bricked sidewalks. The floor plan includes a large living area, formal dining room, and spacious kitchen, along with two-bedroom suites. Outdoor area includes a covered front porch, a screened back porch and a perfectly level lot. The home has been extensively remodeled by the current owners while retaining its original charm. A larger bath was added, and the existing bath was enlarged. Plumbing and electrical systems were replaced, and central heat and air were added. The kitchen was remodeled with cabinetry built by local craftsman Joel Harte, stainless-steel appliances, and new flooring. Original features include solid wood doors, a leaded glass front window, a built-in corner dining room cabinet, and refinished floors. The ceiling height 9 throughout, providing open feel. The property has been used as a vacation rental for many years. Upon approval from the town and county, this home would be a perfect investment opportunity to continue that business. Most furniture, art and smallware to convey with the property. Call today for your private showing.
