About this property

Tranquil sounds of the Dan River heard from the front porch or by the firepit.

This 4 bedroom 2 bath remodeled home is surrounded by 25 acres of grass fields with 1,000 feet bordering the beautiful Dan River. Imagine splashing in the cool water.

At night sit on the porch and listen to the tranquil sounds of the river, do a little stargazing or grill your favorite steak, sit around the firepit or picnic table. When you go inside you can relax by the electric fireplace with someone special. Read, watch Roku TV, play chess or checkers. There's plenty of space with 4 bedrooms, and a playroom with a futon that folds out to make a double bed. Two full bathrooms, one on the main level and one upstairs. Bring the family, play a yard game, shoot a few hoops or relax and enjoy the peace and quiet for your next vacation or just a few days to rest and recharge. You deserve a nice get-away.

Quiet and peaceful
We had a lovely time at Dan River! It’s an older home, but very clean and comfortable. It has all the amenities we needed to cook a nice dinner and sit under the stars by the fire pit! Estelle was wonderful to get back with me on any questions I had. It was only about 15 miles to Mt. Airy to tons of restaurants, and the drive was beautiful! If you are looking for a comfortable, country setting you can’t go wrong with Dan River!
