Old country charm

Article Abstract:

An 1830 brick house renovated and converted into an antique furniture store in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley is featured. Much of the store's original features are untouched by the present owner. It exudes rustic charm with poinsettias, berries and pine boughs for holiday decorations accented with red velvet ribbons.
