c.1945 Fixer Upper House, Trailer and Cottage on 1 Rural Acre in Clintwood, VA Under $50K
OHU50K NOTES
These One Acre Wednesday homes under $50K are getting increasingly difficult to find in this scorching hot real estate market, especially in warmer climate states. While this property has its issues, it includes the c.1945 bungalow, a trailer and a small cottage. The rural setting in a holler is pretty, and the name of the street invokes thoughts of simpler times.
The property is located about 10 minutes outside of town. Clintwood VirginiaClintwood (pop. about 1,500) was originally called Holly Creek, but was later named after a Confederate officer. The town elected an all-female town council from 1948 to 1950., nicknamed the “Petticoat Government.” In just two years, the council implemented loads of changes, including cleanup of downtown and residential areas, eliminating parking problems and traffic hazards, organizing a systematic garbage disposal system, organizing the fire department, and purchasing a fire truck.

I liked the bit about the “Petticoat Government” and what was accomplished under their guidance.
