Weekly Update: A Note From Your Publisher 12.14.23

Happy Thursday, welcome to this weekly edition of A Note From Your Publisher! Is everyone else anxiously awaiting Winter Break? My kids are feeling done this year and ready to be home for a couple of weeks. To be honest, I'm missing them more this year. Ask me in two weeks if I feel the same. HAHA!

This 4BR/3BA Stroubles Mill colonial is a haven of comfort and style, offering a perfect blend of spacious and charming living areas. Finished walk-out basement with 5th non-conforming bedroom. Outside is a fully fenced, flat backyard oasis where a brick patio/courtyard awaits you. Neighborhood amenities included pools, tennis/basketball courts, walking/biking trails and more! Walking distance to Blacksburg schools! Give Erin & Sheila Realtors a call if you would like to have a private tour of this magnificent home.(540) 449-3174 or (540) 553-6469.
