The old Lands Down Schoolhouse. It’s in a beautiful area of the Virginia mountains, not too far from Hungry Mother State Park and The Back of the Dragon. The schoolhouse was built in 1874. It is located on .75 acre in Marion, Virginia. They might be asking a bit too much for this one. A good cleaning out is the first thing I would do. Beautiful surroundings! Three bedrooms, one bathroom and 1,517 square feet. $129,000
