It is sited under magnificent oaks on a 1.5 +/- acre lot that is beautifully landscaped with old stone walls, trees, shrubs and a profusion of perennials. The Old Woodville Schoolhouse has been given new life as an intriguing home that’s full of historic ambience. The house is sited on a knoll at the edge of the village. From this vantage point, it enjoys excellent mountain views and views of the picturesque little village. Although it is at the edge of the village, the elevated site and lovely landscaping makes the property feel very private with no other homes in full view. One can view Old Rag Mountain from the kitchen window. The house has a large eat-in kitchen, library, living room, two bedrooms, one bath and a laundry room on the main floor. Several rooms feature rich solid pine paneling, nicely accented with decorator colors. The heart of the living room is a good sized brick fireplace with a wood stove. The tall front porch features the original railings, steps and columns of the old schoolhouse. A good-sized cellar is good workshop space and ideal for storage of canned goods, root crops and wine. The lawn around the home has vestiges of the old school yard with several areas that must have been used for recess and games. Old stone walls are featured prominently in the landscape and they are enhanced by copious plantings of perennials, flowering shrubs, bulbs and herbs. In front there is a huge old oak tree with a lazy swing, further enhancing the old schoolhouse ambience. The lower lawn areas are perfect for lawn games or a pickup softball game. There are several good-sized raised beds for vegetables and plenty of room for expansion. Grape vines and brambles provide fruit and berries. A long series of outbuildings on the back property line help explain the history of the property. The first building was probably used by the school but through the years it has been added on to a number of times. Each addition has its own story told by different materials, building techniques and purposes. Now it’s a handy building for garden equipment, wood storage and as a workshop or studio. The first shed was used as a wood shop and the second shed was a chicken coop. The next shed was built to hold the tractor. The former owner was a beekeeper and one of the buildings was used as his honey house.
