Eagle Branch Schoolhouse
Eagle Branch Schoolhouse Lovely cottage-style 2-story, 3-bedroom, 1-bath country home on 19.47+/- acres, bordered by two creeks, five minutes from Alderson. This pretty-as-a-picture, immaculately-kept home enjoys a peaceful setting, tucked in the woods overlooking the intersection of two creeks. Built in 1900 and simple in design, the home has shingle siding and a metal roof. One bedroom is on the main level and two are on the upper level. While the home has one bathroom, there is a bonus room upstairs that could readily become a second bath.
An elevated, covered front porch overlooks the beautifully landscaped yard and provides an excellent perch from a porch swing or rocker for bird watching and viewing the deer and wild turkeys that visit the property.

The entry opens to the living room on the left, and an office/den/reading nook on the right. This room is currently occupied by an impressive antique organ that can convey with the property. Like all the rooms, the living room and den have attractive hardwood flooring and ceiling fans. The home tends to stay naturally cool, and the only air conditioning is a small window unit in the living room.
The kitchen, laundry room and an enclosed porch are located in the rear of the home. The kitchen has white cabinetry and laminate counters with a porcelain double sink. Appliances include a Frigidaire refrigerator-freezer and a Gibson electric range. The dining room is adjacent, but there's also enough room in the kitchen for a breakfast table, or with some minor remodeling, an eat-at island.
The main level also includes the primary bedroom and a hallway bath with a shower-tub and a vanity with a solid surface countertop with integrated sink.
The laundry room has laminate flooring and Frigidaire appliances. The enclosed rear porch has two banks of windows overlooking the side yard and creeks. This room opens to a small deck.
The upper level, accessed by a stairway near the front entry, has three spacious bedrooms with dormer windows and ceiling fans. This level also includes a smaller room currently in use as a sewing room, but potentially a second bath because of its size and location over the downstairs bath, facilitating any plumbing work.
This quaint home in an idyllic setting was once a country schoolhouse. Most of the nearly 20-acre property is wooded with mixed hardwoods, but the landscaped yard in front is generous in size and quite attractive. Located three-quarters of a mile from the main highway, which parallels the Greenbrier River, the property is in Summers County but more convenient to schools and services in Alderson, which is in both Greenbrier and Monroe County. A quiet riverfront town with a seasonal farmer's market, Alderson has a walking path along the river and a renowned Fourth of July celebration.
