Public Remarks: Are you dreaming of life among the mountains? This is a rare opportunity to purchase a cottage nestled between the beautiful Laurel Creek river and the Virginia Creeper Trail. Shaded by a graceful Catalpa tree, this 0.58 acre lot is within walking distance to everything in Downtown Damascus. The water frontage offers a private escape overlooking a forested cliff; spend hours fishing, relaxing in a hammock, or gathered for good conversation with friends and family by the water's edge. The level yard provides ample space for gardening, a fire pit, picnics and games. The 1950s cottage has been a popular short-term rental for years.

Life in the mountains truly is better--escape to the slower-pace of your own riverside retreat and start making priceless memories with friends & family!
