Clear view of the Blue Ridge Mountains, surrounded by the Rhododendron forest. Gentle older dogs (Bemo and Louie - well trained) on the property, and some little ones throughout the private neighborhood. The back of the property, where you will be is very secluded and quiet. There are a few squirrels and many birds to watch amongst the beautiful trees. Butterfly's, fireflies, and hummingbirds visit often.

About Barbara Benjamin Sliney
I am a writer, and make herbal Salves and teas. My children gifted me their pups when they went off to college. The pups (Bemo and Louie) are now 8 years old, and pretty laid back, but they enjoy gardening with me and keeping the property "safe" from any wild things.
Barbara Benjamin Sliney purchased this House in 2020
Why Barbara Benjamin Sliney chose Newland
The eternal joy of nature abounds here. You are surrounded by it on three sides, yet less than a minute from the main highway, and only 10 minutes to town. 75% off grid (just need solar) with my own well and septic system, makes the property pretty self sustaining. The hazelnut, cherry and apple trees add to the eden vibe. I added elderberries, raspberries and blueberries. I hope to add more growing things throughout the years to come.
What makes this House unique
I am currently looking for people to thin the Rhododendron trees, so anyone able with their own tools can book a free week for 3-4 hours of work a day. There are at least 5 additional parking spaces besides my own, and two sides to the property so it's easy to stay apart. I rarely use the outdoor cooking hut (about once a month), and so it's really all yours. Trained, healthy Pets will be considered with a $100 refundable cash deposit.
