Built in 1889, The W.N. Seay House is a beautifully preserved late-Victorian home listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Perched atop one of the highest ridges in Buena Vista, directly beside Southern Virginia University, the home enjoys sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the town below. The grand covered porch, with its intricate gingerbread trim, carved porch supports, and ornate detailing, immediately transports you to another era. Inside, the home is filled with warmth, character, and impressive original details, including generously proportioned rooms, bay windows, original wood floors, elaborate woodwork, and fireplaces in nearly every room. The updated kitchen and two full bathrooms provide modern conveniences.
