700 Bradford Cir

Building a house means picking a lot, waiting on crews, and living with a bare yard while it all comes together. This one skips all of that. The paint inside is fresh, the kitchen has been updated, and the appliances carry a 5-year warranty. You close, you move in, and you're done.

There's no HOA, so no monthly dues and no committee deciding what color your front door can be. The two-car garage opens right into the house. The living room has a gas fireplace for cool nights, the yard is fenced, and you get mountain views from the patio. Upstairs has two more bedrooms and a full bath for guests, an office, or whatever comes next.

The location is the part a new subdivision can't copy. You're on a quiet cul de sac 0.3 miles from Longwood Park and 0.4 miles from Roanoke College. Walk 0.7 miles to the Salem Farmers Market and the shops and restaurants along Main Street. I-81 is 1.7 miles away, LewisGale Medical Center is 3.3 miles, and downtown Roanoke is 7.2 miles.
