Información de la propiedad

Charming restored Victorian Farmhouse and cottage on a large rural lot.

This gorgeous restored Victorian farmhouse, circa 1880, is located in Como, NC (in the Northeast corner of NC, four miles south of the Virginia state line). The Buckhorn Baptist Church originally built this frame house to house its minister.

Four bedrooms and two and half baths, great room with wood stove, eat-in kitchen, laundry room, screened back porch, and patio provide our visitors with plenty of room to relax. Comfortably sleeps eight in the main house and two in the detached cottage. Fully equipped updated farmhouse style kitchen includes range, refrigerator, dishwasher and eat-in area for four. More dining is available at the large table in the great room. Large landscaped yard (surrounded by farmers fields), provides extra parking for RVs, boats and trailers. House is lovingly restored throughout. Central heat/ac, bed linens and towels provided.

This is the perfect place for a romantic weekend for two, a small family reunion, a girl’s getaway or just a relaxing week away from the hustle and bustle of everyday living. For an exciting excursion, take a ride on Parkers Ferry, one of NC’s three remaining cable ferries. There are boat ramps six miles north and south of the property providing easy access to boating and good fishing. Historic Murfreesboro with its walkable historic district, restaurants and shopping is just six miles south. Franklin, Virginia is 12 miles to the north. Other nearby attractions include the Sylvan Heights Bird Park and Merchants Millpond State Park.

Good one!!!

Hey- the house is cute and quaint- perfectly the right size for 7 of us! The host Ruth was always quick to answer any questions - very attentive and we loved that! The outside patio and porch were great- and seeing cotton and peanut fields all around were so scenic!! Easy to walk around a bit!! Loved the extra cottage out back as my hubby used it for a zoom session with Wm and Mary! Might want to add grab bars and/or a mat in the downstairs shower. Also, watch out between rooms- raised unexpected thresholds! And lots of steps to reach upstairs bedrooms!! Kitchen was delightful to cook in and delicious snacks left by Ruth! All in all, our stay was very enjoyable!!!

A quaint tranquil step back in time

The location/house was everything the description stated it was and more than expected in this historic house where you are reminded of simpler times. The backyard landscaping was beautiful and provided the ideal setting for my daughter and I to stare gaze. The host even left a great welcome basket for our stay which was very much appreciated -- great personal touch to our stay.

Quite small town

Nice old home in a quite town (pop. 64) about 20 minutes south of Franklin VA. The house has a lot of character reflecting that it is 140+ years old, with bedroom 3 & 4 upstairs. Note that typical for houses this old, the ceilings are a little low upstairs. Well stocked kitchen, nice sitting area in the living room, and a quite back porch. For us, this is close to family and we will definitely stay gain.

Nice but…

This is likely the best short-term rental around - it was clean, in a nice, safe area, the owners communicative and helpful. I loved the veggie garden and all the cute decorative items throughout the house. But in all honesty, the place was in dire need of extensive (& undoubtedly expensive) repairs. While I can appreciate all the hard work the owners have done already to bring it back from a pile of rubble (as detailed in the book supplied), much needs to be done by skilled tradesmen to truly bring this property up to standards.

Pleasant stay

My friend & I found the B&B to be as advertised. We were in and out during our 2-night visit, so we didn't have time to take advantage of the games and reading material, etc. but we rested & slept well! The property's close access to US 258 means that guests with activities in Franklin VA or Murfreesboro NC or inbetween will find it an attractive choice.

The home was nice, but there was a drowned mouse in the master bathroom, and the bedding in both rooms was damp. However, it was an adventure and we were close to my niece and enjoyed our visit!

Our Stay at the Rectory

Overall the home gave us what we needed in Como (which is also my family's home city when it was called Maney's Neck) since the 1800's. My Uncle Colin's house, just a quarter mile away, brought back many memories on his farm when I was a child. Pros: Ms. Ruth was VERY responsive and easy to get in touch with. Very quiet neighborhood. Lovely outdoor garden. Shower pressure and temperature was AMAZING. Cons: Definitely old. Can use more updating while respecting the integrity of the history of the home. Mattresses can be a lot better. For older family members, certain structural elements can create a falls hazard for the elderly. Otherwise, we're appreciative of the stay. Thank you Ms. Ruth.

Quiet getaway at a great price

Check in was a very simple process. For the age of the home and property we were very impressed with the cleanliness of the house. Plenty of space for each of us, and enjoyed the company of the local Cat. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone who visits that part of the state.

My husband and I enjoyed spending the week at this beautiful, quiet home while we were working in nearby Franklin, VA. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful, and the home itself had every amenity necessary and then some. We would definitely stay again!!

Family time

We had a family wedding to attend who live in the area and we’re looking for a place close by. The house fit our needs perfectly. We were comfortable and had everything we needed. The drive was easy to Murfreesboro. We would come back to this property as it was quiet and relaxing and had a lot of zones in the house to spread out. They owners of the house were great to reach out to make sure we had all the information we needed.

Looking out at cotton fields

Easy, early check in to a lovely older home with great history - and cotton fields out the back door. Very quiet and peaceful. Coffee bar, a basket of snacks and other nice touches by the owner. If it had been warmer we could have enjoyed one of the three outdoor seating areas. Everything one could possibly need was at our fingertips. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely historic home.

This property was just "beautiful". House was very clean and accomadable for our family. Furniture is a little outdated, but to be expected for a country setting. All amenities and toiletries needed to stay were available. Grocery shopping was fairly close by. Beautiful scenery sitting on back porch listening to nature. Wish there was wifi and a television in every room for the kiddos and game systems for those that aren't country ready to stay entertained. This is a wonderful property and setting for those looking to just enjoy the peace and nature away from big cities. We traveled from CT so this was close to where we needed to be for a funeral, but vacation wise, I would def rent again. And Mrs. Ruth Akwright, the owner was super nice and very responsive quickly. She was even kind enough to leave us a goodie basket. Would definitely rent again!!

Cute, quaint, historic farmhouse with lots of space

We very much enjoyed our stay. Ruth was nice enough to decorate for the holidays and even put up a tree and lights, and left a nice welcome basket which my kids really enjoyed. The house is very cute and well stocked. It is definitely older but has lots of historic charm including stained glass windows in the living room and an old fireplace. It is nicely updated and the beds were comfy. The only small negative was the lack of wifi which is in the listing, but I got a little 5G coverage so we managed. Will definitely stay again when we are back in the area.

Great place, like Grandma's house

Great job restoring this home. A wonderful place with plenty of room for a family/group of 8. Feels just like grandmother's house, don't expect the waldorf or anything posh. Also not near anything but a road and farm land so if you're looking to completely disconnect it's a good place to stay near Murfreesboro.

The house was built in the late 1800's as the rectory for the nearby Buckhorn Baptist Chruch and used to house the pastors until the new rectory was built next door in 1950.
