461 S Shady Ave Damascus, VA 24236

If you've been waiting for just the right spot in Damascus, here it is. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on a level .63-acre lot right in town, and it's got all the charm and updates you'd hope for. Just one block from both the Appalachian Trail and the Virginia Creeper Trail, this location can't be beat. The Creeper Trail winds right through town and is one of the prettiest places around for biking, walking, or just enjoying a slow afternoon. You're also within walking distance to the public library, coffee shops, and a nearby distillery. This sweet little bungalow has been updated with a mix of charm and craftsmanship. You've got a new metal roof, new HVAC, new siding, and nice upgrades to the carport and side porch. Inside, the layout is easy and comfortable with a main-level primary bedroom, complete with its own bathroom and laundry, so everything's within reach. But let's talk about the yard—it's a real gem. There are over 40 fruit trees, three garden spots, and all kinds of veggies, herbs, and flowers already growing. It's the kind of place where you can pick a tomato off the vine, grab some fresh basil, and be cooking supper in no time. There's also a brand-new 20x30 shed out back with plenty of space for storage, hobbies, or whatever else you need. The whole yard is fenced, so it's safe for pets or keeping the deer out of your garden. Three city lots totally plenty of room if you want to add a rental. The basement and foundation were fully checked out by an engineer after the Helene storm, and came back with no structural damage, so you can rest easy. Whether you're dreaming of small-town living, looking for a getaway, or wanting a place with a little land and a lot of heart—this one's worth a look. Homes like this in Damascus don't come around every day. Buyer/buyer's agent to verify all info. More photos coming soon!
