OHU50K NOTES
It is Sunday, the day of the week OHU50K rests from its under $50K cares to feature homes up to $100K. We have three properties today: a city house; a waterfront property on 2.75 acres; and this 1.5-acre mountain view home in Tazewell, Virginia, the gateway to the heartland of the Appalachian Mountains.
Built in 1899, this was the home of Louise Leslie, a lifetime resident of Tazewell who died in January of this year at the age of 89. She was an author, historian and editor/columnist for her family-owned newspaper, the Clinch Valley News, one of the oldest newspapers in Virginia. Louise did not want a funeral service, but instead left this upbeat message that tickled me, “Thanks, I had a good time.”
