Additionally, we furnished the home with all new furniture, bedding, linens, TVs, and the kitchen equipped with new dishes, glassware, cookware, small appliances. As soon as you enter the home you'll find yourself in the open living, dining and kitchen area. Beautiful new hardwood floors, granite countertops, lots of cabinet space in the kitchen are just the beginning of the amenities you will find in this home. Upstairs in the living room you'll find comfortable seating and a large 40" HD flat screen TV. The dining table seats eight people. Located on the main floor is the spacious master bedroom. Quality linens and bedding grace the king-sized bed. There is a walk-in closet and a beautifully done en suite bathroom. The large vanity offers two sinks with granite countertops for your convenience. Across the hall is bedroom #2 which has another king-sized bed. This bedroom shares the bathroom on this floor with the master bedroom. Downstairs are two more bedrooms and another full-sized bathroom. One of the bedrooms has a king-sized bed; the other bedroom has two twin sized beds. Your group will enjoy relaxing and hanging out in the spacious "Liberty University" themed family room (or "rec room") downstairs which is equipped with a 55" HD flat-screen TV and Blu-Ray DVD player and video library. NOTE: Both TVs in the house are equipped with Roku live TV channels and streaming capabilities. You can either sign into your own premium streaming services using the apps on the TV (such as Netflix, Hulu or Prime Video) or stream content from your mobile devices.

Just off the kitchen you'll find a spacious screened porch, equipped with a table & benches for outdoor dining.

On the ground level in the shade of the upper deck is an old-fashioned porch swing where you can relax in the quiet atmosphere of this pastoral setting. NOTE: The house does not have an outdoor grill. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! We bought our "Candlers Mountain Retreat" because of its VERY CLOSE proximity to Liberty University, just 4 minutes away down Candlers Mountain Road! We knew that families and people coming to Lynchburg to attend events at the University or visit students at the University would be our target audience and welcome guests so a close location was the main objective during our property search. This property was the closest home to LU on the market and we are very excited to be able to offer this conveniently located property as a temporary "home away from home" for our guests. This spacious 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom charming home is unique in the Lynchburg vacation rental market. There is not another large home such as this located in the Lynchburg/Rustburg area and this close to Liberty. Don't miss your chance to become one of the first guests at Candlers Mountain Retreat.
