The property is stunning! But the house....seems like a lot of work in front of you, and as you mentioned you would totally gut and renovate the kitchen and MBedroom. Seems as though if you are having to renovate right off the bat, is it right? Do you want to be involved in all that - you guys are suppose to be retiring! Property is very big. Have to think about 10 years down the road - do you want that much maintenance? A very hard decision indeed. 💙

Hey Darlene Sweetheart ❤️ You asked for our honest opinion. The view is Stunning to say the least!!! But at retirement age, unless you are Super Charged and have what it takes to maintain 20 acres I say that is a lot to take care of. But it's y'all's decision and whatever y'all choose is the right choice regardless ❤ I know GOD WILL let y'all know when y'all find the right place❤🎉 Congratulations on whatever y'all choose ❤🎉 Thank you so very much for sharing this with us!!! I sure did Enjoy it!!! We Love y'all so very much ❤️ Have A Beautiful Blessed Peaceful Evening ❤️

I agree. That beautiful property will require a tremendous amount of work, which is probably why it’s being sold. As we age, it’s gets more difficult every day to keep up our 5 acres, pool and home. We are 76 and 67.

We also live in South western Virginia. Not far from the Blueridge Parkway. We really feel blessed. The property is gorgeous, and the pool is phenomenal, but it seems as though there will be quite a bit of work for it to be what you really want. Just keep in prayer, and God will lead you in the right direction. God Bless.

The property is GORGEOUS but what would worry me would be all the upkeep, mowing, repairs on the buildings, etc., in my golden years. The house is disappointing to say the least, starting with the kitchen and continuing with the tiny bedrooms and the very odd layout. I would think this property would be for a young married couple just starting out maybe? As a retiree, I wouldn't want all the work involved with the grounds. Keep looking! Don't get discouraged!!!

Well as I told you before I live in SW Va and it is a gorgeous area but that’s a lot of land to keep up for two retired people. The pool area and porches were very nice. I didn’t like the laundry area either and I wonder if two bedrooms could be combined for a large master? I just feel like it’s too much work.

Darlene, It could be that the reason it's being sold is there is too much upkeep inside and outside. I think the grounds and the pool is gorgeous. I, like you think there is some odd layouts and you'd have to gut the entire kitchen, that part that looks like a combo butlers serving place and bar! The bedrooms are small. The whole place is just laid out strange. With that being said, IF you and Lou like it, go for it. IF both you have doubts, it may not be the one. Pray about it! It COULD be turned into a doll house! But, the biggest question is, are you up for the amount of work it would take for it to be your dream retirement home? It does have possibilities!! ANY house you look at is not going to be perfect! You just have to pic the one that suits your needs the most! Love and prayers!!

IMO I think I keep looking. In our search, there are things that we won’t compromise at our age. If you think it’s worth remodeling the house, then pray and see if this is the one. The view is breathtaking, but remember it’s a lot of upkeep. We are still looking too. In the area we are looking there are price wars. I can’t see paying 20 to 30 thousand over asking price. So when The Lord gives us peace on a house we will downsize. Good luck to Lou and you.

It seems like a lot of property upkeep for a retirement home, along with a house you didn't actually like, all for a lovely view and an even lovelier pool. Might be better to find a house laid out as you like it, with room for a pool, if it doesn't already have one. :)

The property and views are gorgeous. But all those outbuildings look a mess and they’re everywhere. I’d bring some of them down. The house looks like a total gut to me. You would have a lot of work ahead of you. I don’t think this is the one. You do seem to be gravitating toward a Mountain View. I think 5-10 acres is enough to maintain. You’ll find the right one soon. We will keep praying for the perfect one to come along. Thanks Darlene 🙏🙏💕

I think it's too much to maintain in the outdoor buildings and land for a couple who are retirement age. 20 acres is a lot! The view is lovely. The inside is not what you want and you would have to sink a lot of money into renovations. I do like that it is a ranch. For me it would not be worth it, or what I want to move into when I retire. Is building a possibility? Hope you come to an answer that you are at peace with!

I live in Southwest Virginia. It is a beautiful place to live. Some years we have lots of ice and snow. It is hot and humid during the summer. Looks like lots of mowing, weedeating, trimming bushes and fence painting. The inside of the house was very odd. Would drive me crazy. Most people do not have living space in the basement here because they are very damp and must run a dehumidifier.

Hi Darlene! While the scenery is gorgeous, I feel it is too much up keep for retirement. Pools are a LOT of work, as is that much land and out buildings, greenhouse. I'm sure you were planning to hire someone for the upkeep of the land. When we get older that much land AND a pool is just too much. That's my opinion! I wish you the very best, love your videos!

Also do you and Lou really want that much property to take care of at this stage of your life.

Darlene the property and pool are wonderful, but the house doesn't work. You would have too much remodeling to do for a retirement home. We have been looking on and off for a home out of state. It's very tiring and frustrating to drive 6 hours and end up in a bidding war. 😢 it appears everyone is moving to New Hampshire. So this fall we are going to look in PA. My father's roots go back to 1750 in the Cumberland valley and I still have cousins there. And a few friends. So many people/families are fleeing NY. We had to stop looking for 8 months due to my husband developing heart problems. I wish you luck in finding your dream retirement home. I'm hoping we have better luck in PA.

I don’t know how many items were on the love side of your list and because I don’t know the price it’s hard to say, but the view is priceless and there were so many outdoor amenities you won’t find in many properties. However, are you willing find a contractor, live through the mess, and pay what could be a hefty price to make the changes that are a must to you? Paint and flooring and certain upgrades are easier to live through but sometimes one project leads to a bigger other. Maybe your hubby is handy and it’s a non issue. Pull a daisy and do the “she loves me, she loves me not” test? I dunno 🤷‍♀️Sending love, hugs, and an extra pinch of wisdom and discernment.

Beautiful area and views but unless you have budgeted full time maintenance help you will not have the time to enjoy that pool or rocking away on the porch.

Dearest Darlene, while it is a beautiful property, and gorgeous views..., but can I be honest. I really don't think this home is for you! I could feel your hesitation and doubt as you walked around, and there seemed too much that was odd with you pointing a lot of them out. You pointed out several things to which I want to address if I may please. 1 - You mentioned that the main bedroom was small, but I thought it looks a little bigger than mine...LOL! What I thought strange was the laundry coming off the main bedroom, which to me is a very poor design, because do you want to be in your bedroom listening to the washing machine or dryer? 2 - The little area next to the kitchen I thought looked like a butler's kitchen which is very trendy in new build homes in Australia. I thought the location of that butler's kitchen looked out of place though, as it should be not in plain sight and the first thing you see when you come in the front door. 3 - In the greenhouse you pointed out something that was on the side wall and floor... to me it looked like black mould which in fact is potentially dangerous especially if it is inside a house. It usually builds up where there is a lot of moisture and poor ventilation for example in bathrooms. If exposed to black mould over a long period of time you can get very sick... assuming that it is black mould. 4 - There would be a lot of maintenance and upkeep on this property, and you were talking about changing the kitchen... basement... etc... do you both want all the added costs on top of the purchase of this home? Darlene, I do hope this comment hasn't come across as being negative, but I want you to be really happy with where you and Lou choose to live. God's richest blessings, love and hugs. Gloria! 🏡❤

Hi Darlene🤗 You. and Lou will know when you come upon your new home. You’ll get that warm sensation, your eyes will light up, your smile will fill your face, your heart will probably skip a beat with excitement. Like being in love. 😆 In the meantime, enjoy your days of searching. Blessings. 🌷Sam

I'd say run....don't walk!! Too many weird things and indiscrepancies in design and function! A money pit with a beautiful view in my opinion.

First thoughts! Way too much upkeep and a lot of renovations. It looks like they have major water problems in the greenhouse. Looks like a money pit. Pass.
