A Fabulous Greenbrier Copycat For Thanksgiving

Share News:

Lewisburg, West Virginia is rich in history with its first settlers discovering the area in 1751. So with Thanksgiving upon us, we thought it only fitting to take a look at one of the nation’s most historic towns. What we find might surprise you! Tell us which is more you, the Greenbrier-Inspired Splurge or the Pioneer Cabin Steal?

Splurge: Federal-Style Estate On Two-Acres With Storied Interiors For $695K

Classic and timeless, this historic stunner is a feast for the senses! Fondly known as “Eastgate” this exceptional Lewisburg home was originally built in 1921, then improved over time.

Most interestingly, the interiors are by Carleton Varney – the famed president of Dorothy Draper Interiors! He is also responsible for the current interiors of the Greenbrier Hotel! From room to room his hand is in it all!

Here you’ll enjoy two-stories of luxury living with custom carpets from Ireland and hand painted walls and ceilings. Step inside to find a dramatic and stately staircase coupled with a classic checkerboard floor.

The formal dining area alone is like living in a piece of art! And it’s sure to wow guests at your next dinner party or Thanksgiving celebration. Bedrooms feature in high-end wallcoverings and hallways and living areas are draped in the soft glow of chandelier lights.

Additional high notes include lush landscaping and a total of four fireplaces. Plus, there is an expansive porch, gazebo, and fantastic terrace overlooking the grounds.

John Patterson with Vision Quest Realty has listed 2141 Washington Street E. Unit East, Lewisburg, West Virginia for $695,000.

Steal: Pioneer Log Cabin Just A Stone’s Throw From Washington Street For $299K

If only walls could talk! This 1780 pioneer cabin was relocated from northern Greenbrier County and updated in the 1970s. Today it offers a charming backdrop to any Thanksgiving feast.

Soaring ceilings, a historic chimney and hearth, plus updated kitchen make this one a comfortable retreat. The two-bedroom, two-full-bathroom log home sits in the heart of downtown Lewisburg and offers a spacious 1,716 square feet.

Exposed wood beams and wood paneled walls define each room, met by classic touches like subway tile baths, and beadboard ceilings. You’ll also find a number of barn doors, picture windows bringing the outdoors in, and plenty of space to host family and friends for dinner. The property also is just a stone’s throw from Washington Street so you can walk to restaurants. Quite a steal, and just in time for Turkey Day!

Paul Grist with Grist Real Estate Associates, Inc. has listed 445 Randolph Street E. Lewisburg, West Virginia for $299,000.
