FSBO deal in Roanoke City

Sunday, August 6th, 2006

Roanoke FSBOThought I’d clue everyone into this FSBO I ran into the other day off of Plantation Road and Thurston Avenue in Roanoke City.

The owners were nice enough to let me tour it when I dropped by. It is 3BR, 1BA. Very well maintained inside, it’s clean as a pin and has a great finished basement with a workroom. The two-car garage is very spacious and is perfect for the car enthusiast. The home is currently FSBO for $140,000.  If you’d like to make an appointment to see it, contact me at my email address or phone number and I’ll make an appointment for you.

Tudor style homes in Roanoke

Saturday, August 5th, 2006

Roanoke tudor homeCNNMoney.com had a really good article on Tudor style homes the other day.

Here’s a short excerpt-

Tudor homes are based on the architecture of England at the end of medieval times. The style evolved during the late 15th century and lasted until shortly after the turn of the 17th century.

Half-timbered, stucco walls, turrets and steeply pitched roofs with cross gables are characteristics of the style. Windows tend to be very tall and panes very small; they’re often leaded in a diamond pattern. Arched entryways and substantial chimneys topped by terra cotta pots are also common Tudor themes.

I’ve always loved the architecture in Roanoke’s tudor homes. The Grandin Village, Raleigh Court and Grandin Court areas in Roanoke, as well as others, have many tudor style homes. There are several tudor style homes on the market in Roanoke right now. Contact me for more information or a no-obligation showing. The picture to the right is from one of the homes currently on the market.
