I love this house and the history! Really love the price! This home was built in 1737. The log portion of the home is the original part. It was used by a church as a home for traveling parsons. The log parsonage section has wide plank flooring and original hand hewn exposed logs from the 1730’s. The log parsonage was expanded on in the 1900’s. There is a large sun room that overlooks the large yard. Located on 1.75 acres in Madison Heights, Virginia. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and 2,501 square feet. $128,900
