Peace and quiet

Guests say this home is in a quiet area.
This older family home is located in Semora on our family's farm. The home is very secluded and private on a beautiful road. VIR (Virginia International Raceway) is only a 12 minute drive away. Hyco Lake is an 11 minute drive. This makes us perfectly situated between two popular vacation spots. We are about 12 minutes from Milton and 20 minutes from Yanceyville and Roxboro where you can find shopping and restaurants.

**Please note this is a very rural home.
We do not do long term renters.

The space
My husband and I have made many improvements to this mobile home that has an add on of a master bedroom and living room. We lived in this family home in the ten years we lived there with many updates made in Summer 2021. We had a lot of happy memories there and want to share it with others. The home is completely private, you can't see any neighbors, even us. Be sure to go out on clear nights and enjoy the stars that seem to go on forever!

It's also a beautiful road for a walk, run or bike. There is very little traffic except for the people that live on this road, it's not often used as a through road. Along the road are three different cow pastures and a horse pasture which help make an afternoon walk even more tranquil.

Note that there is no street lighting here. So when you plan to come in at night, you should leave the front porch light on. It can be surprising how dark it is outside.

Guest access
If you rent this house you will have access to the entire home, the front and back porch, the yards and the fire pit. You will not have any access to the barns, farm equipment, or shed that are located on the property. These are for our own personal use. We please ask you do not go and explore in the barn, we'd hate for anyone to get hurt.

Other things to note
We are about a 20 minute drive from the closest grocery store, (it's in Yanceyville NC). There is a Dollar General about 5 minutes away if you need anything, but do note that you will be limited in food options there.
We'll provide coffee, bottled water and some snacks.

Please do not set the AC below 70 degrees in the summer time. In the heat of the summer the heat index in NC often gets above 100 degrees, which can make it hard for the AC to keep the house very cold during the heat of the day. If you set it too low it will freeze causing it to not work at all. We suggest leaving bedroom doors shut during the day so they’re nice and cool at night. I have also provided many fans throughout the house for your convenience.

The front porch light does attract a lot of bugs in the evening in the summertime. Since there are no nearby street lights, they come to this light. Be sure to not leave the door open and let bugs in.

The shower knob is backwards, to get hot water turn the knob to cold. This is just an effect of DIY work!

Neighborhood highlights

The home is located in a very rural neighborhood. This road is only 3 miles long, but we all know each other. Our 400 acre family farm is nestled between two other large family farms. When I say family farm I mean farms that have homes that are many generations of one family. These three families really watch out for one another, so you have no reason not to feel perfectly safe here.

Born in the 80s
My work: University professor
I'm a mathematics and statistics educator. I'm currently a professor at Elon university. I've been a teacher for the over 10 years, mostly in community college and universities. I travel a lot for conferences and tend to bring my family along. I can't live without my family, I live in a very small town with my son and husband on our family farm. I do love traveling, trying new food, and just seeing historic sites, but unfortunately traveling is almost always compounded with work!
