Charming Home on 1.75 Acres, featuring 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, lovely enclosed front porch, a cozy den and spacious great room. Property has detached 2-car garage. The property includes several outbuildings for storage and small farming pursuits. It is enriched with fruit-bearing trees and grapevines. The house is perched on a beautiful bank, offering a generous level area behind it for all your homesteading aspirations. Conveniently located just outside of Galax, you'll find it only minutes away from the Blue Ridge Parkway and Galax City's main street, perfect for shopping and dining. For the heating of the home: the wood boiler heats up a big tank of water around the firebox. When the water gets hot enough, a pump kicks on and pushes that hot water through pipes that run to the baseboard heaters in the house. Inside each baseboard is a copper pipe with little metal fins on it. As the hot water flows through, those fins heat up. Cool air from the room gets pulled in at the bottom of the baseboard, warms up as it passes over the fins, and then rises back into the room. It's a slow, steady heat—no fans or blowing air. Once the water gives off its heat, it heads back to the boiler to get reheated, and the cycle keeps going as long as the thermostat is calling for heat. The boiler keeps itself hot, and the thermostat just tells the pump when to move the water. The boiler system is located in the building beside the home.
