About this home
If you've been waiting for the perfect place in Damascus, you've just found it. This 3-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on a level 0.63-acre parcel right in town, offering that rare combination of country living, small-town charm, and prime investment potential—all in one spot. Just one block from both the Appalachian Trail and the Virginia Creeper Trail, this location is unbeatable. Outdoorsmen, hikers, bikers, and visitors come from all over the country, making Damascus one of the most beloved trail towns in the region—and demand for rentals here is only growing. Whether you're dreaming of a peaceful homestead or looking for an income-producing Airbnb, this property offers both paths. The sellers have invested close to $100K in improvements, including: Brand-new metal roof All new attic insulation, replaced after Helene to ensure everything was dry, clean, and correct New HVAC New siding Upgraded carport and side porch Insulated garage Beautifully updated landscaping Inside, you'll find an easy, welcoming layout with a main-level primary bedroom, complete with its own bathroom and laundry. Step outside, and you'll understand what makes this place special. The entire yard is fenced and set up for people who love to grow, create, and live simply—40+ fruit trees, three garden areas, herbs, flowers, and room for chickens. It's the kind of yard where you can pick fresh produce, enjoy quiet evenings, and truly live the country lifestyle right in town. A brand-new 20x30 shed offers endless possibilities—workshop, storage, hobby space, or even future conversion. And with three city lots, there's plenty of room to add another rental unit, a guest cottage, or a tiny home to maximize short-term rental income. Damascus was hit hard by Hurricane Helene, but this town is rebuilding quickly. By spring, it will be filled with bikers, hikers, tourists, and folks looking for places to stay, eat, and explore. This is the moment to buy— Buyer/buyer's agent to verify all info.
