A classic example of Greek Revival architecture with tasteful additions is one of the reasons Auburn is on both the Virginia and National Registers of Historic Places. It is an outstanding property in a wonderful setting of fields and woods, all in the classic small town of Bowling Green. The house and 17.2 acres are not subject to any conservation easements. Only zoning and subdivision ordinances apply with other ordinances.

Please use the detailed Narrative found in the Document Section of Bright.

A great feature of being on the historic registers is, if someone chooses, to grant a conservation easement to generate federal tax deductions and Virginia tax credits. Home improvement projects might qualify for a 25% Virginia tax credit.

Floors are wood with a patina, luster which is warm and a contrast to other flooring. Rooms are well proportioned. A large, screened porch in the back of the house provides great views of the gardens, fields, and woods. The sunroom with many windows is a great source of warmth and light in fall, winter, and spring. Photos of magnificent flower gardens are found in the books opened in the kitchen.

A separate two car garage is toward the back of the house and behind the garage is a shed for tools. The dog lots are near the garage. About 10.25 acres is farmed with the rental agreement year to year. The farmer has the right to harvest his crops. The Owner will pay no roll-back taxes.

The property has three (3) tax maps, the tax parcel with the main house and outbuildings and two other tax parcels of record which might be buildable house lots. Please see the Narrative in the Document Section of Bright.
