Property Description
A rare opportunity to own and bring this historic Literary Landmark back to life. The Circa 1810's farmhouse is on the Virginia Landmarks Registry and the National Registry of Historic Places. The birthplace of Pulitzer Prize- winning author Willa Cather is located along route 50, Nortwestern Pike, Gore, Virginia on 5.87 acres. The house is in very poor repair and fans of the famous author are hopeful the property will fall into the hands of someone who will bring new life back to this property. The property has a second house, Circa 1920, also in disrepair but could possibly be lived in while restoring. It has some impressive woodwork and hardwood flooring that would delight those who love those homes of yesteryear. Property is being sold "As-is, Where-Is". Per Frederick County Planning the property cannot be subdivided. Please do not visit the property without an appointment.
