here are many historic homes available in central Virginia, where history abounds and homes can date back several hundred years. REALTOR® Jim Faulconer, principal broker for McLean Faulconer, Inc. in Charlottesville, says historic houses are one of his specialties and loves. For example, he’s the broker for the historic Carter’s Grove, a plantation house built in the late 1700s and located on 750 acres on the north shore of the James River in James City County.

Real Estate Related News Charlottesville Area Association of REALTORS® Member Cynthia Viejo Honored with Good Neighbor Award Nest Realty Group REALTOR® Recognized for Volunteer Work at Charlottesville-Albemarle SPCA and Green Dogs Unleashed CAAR, the voice of real estate in the Central Virginia region, has announced Cynthia Viejo as a Good Neighbor Award recipient. This recognition program highlights local REALTORS® who dedicate significant time and interest to projects that make a lasting impact on our communities. “Cynthia is a perpetual fundraiser for many causes near and dear to her heart, and her volunteer efforts on behalf of animals are truly admired by the local real estate community,” Denise Ramey, GRI, CAAR president and director of relocation at Roy Wheeler Realty, said. Viejo has been an advocate for animal rescue since she moved to Charlottesville about 34 years ago. She easily spends four to five hours each week on projects that benefit the CharlottesvilleAlbemarle SPCA and Green Dogs Unleashed—and three to four hours daily leading up to fundraising events. She is a vocal supporter of CASPCA’s mission as a no-kill facility.

Cynthia Viejo (left) receives the CAAR Good Neighbor Award on Thursday, Nov. 14 from (l-r) CAAR President Denise Ramey with CASPCA Executive Director Leslie Hervey and Green Dogs Unleashed Animal Behavior Specialist/ Director Erika Proctor.

“Oftentimes REALTORS® are the first line of sight for abandoned and neglected animals,” Leslie Hervey, executive director of CASPCA, said. “Cynthia has raised thousands of dollars for the animals at the SPCA over the years and has helped to place many adoptable pets into loving homes. Her most notable achievements include chairing the 2006 Magnificent Mutt Show and founding the SPCA’s Dogs & Cats Around Town fundraiser, bringing together more than a dozen local artists with locally owned businesses to support our local animals in need.” More recently Viejo has used her crafting expertise to support Green Dogs Unleashed. She makes and sells “compassion” bracelets, and donates 100 percent of the proceeds to this budding non-profit organization focused on rescue, rehabilitation, placement and training of special needs canines and other animals to work with special needs children and adults. During today’s ceremony, Viejo raised $600 from her bracelets that will go toward medical expenses and training for foster dogs in the program like Riddle, the Golden Doodle pictured above. “Cynthia epitomizes what GDU stands for, compassion toward oth-

Last year, on what is traditionally the “Black Friday” after Thanksgiving, when the holiday shopping season traditionally cranks into overdrive, the Paramount Theater staged its very first Alternative Gift Fair, raising thousands of dollars for seventeen of Charlottesville’s beloved non-profits, including organizations dedicated to energy, poverty, animal rescue, nature, the arts, education, innovation, and more. On this coming Black Friday, November 29th, 2013, from 12:00-7:00 p.m., The Paramount will reprise last year’s fantastic premiere, with nearly double the number of charities participating. At The Paramount Theater’s Second Annual Alternative Gift Fair, the fair’s sole stars and beneficiaries will again be Charlottesville’s beloved non-profits and charities. At The Paramount’s Alternative Gift Fair, there will be no ‘things’ for sale as one might expect to find at a typical holiday bazaar. Instead, holiday shoppers at this virtual “mall” will visit dozens of local organizations, learn about their work and challenges, and decide whether to name a gift to that organization in honor of a friend, colleague or loved one. A gift donation might be adequate to provide school lunches for a week for a child, a hammer for a volunteer home rebuilder, or a book a month for an adult only now learning to read. The Alternative Gift Fair model offers a leg up to local non-profits who struggle to fulfill their missions in a difficult economy, particularly at year-end.

Charlottesville Waldorf School Orchestra & Choir Receives Grant from Bama Works Fund Charlottesville Waldorf School received a grant from the Bama Works Fund enabling CWS to purchase thirty-six ergonomically correct chairs for the school’s three orchestras and choirs. Brennan Gould, Director of Grants and Strategic Initiatives at the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation said, “The Bama Works Fund at CACF was pleased to support music education programming that will benefit students throughout their lives.” Students returned in August to find their choir and orchestra classes newly outfitted with the ergonomic chairs. “Our students enjoy music classes and these special chairs will enable them to be well-supported physically, which is important because a healthy posture sets up children to make the most of their musical gifts,” said CWS orchestra teacher, Emily Rosson. “The chairs will also reduce fatigue and allow students to focus on instrumental technique,” she said. The orchestra chairs

CIC Announces Applications Available For Spring Class The Community Investment Collaborative (CIC) announces its next 17 week entrepreneurial workshop will begin on March 4, 2014.

Charities don’t know who their donors are until they receive a list after the event, and even then the donor may choose to remain anonymous. Shoppers may pay by cash or credit card, and one hundred percent of their donations go to their designated charities. The Paramount absorbs all of the overhead costs, which this year is again generously underwritten by Victor Millner of Northwestern Mutual. Families participating in the Downtown Tree Lighting can participate in this community day of giving. Following the downtown Christmas Tree Lighting, Junie B. Jones, everyone’s favorite first grader, will be performing at 6:30 pm. Junie learns an important lesson about giving as all of the students in Room One are happily creating the perfect holiday party - except how is Junie B. supposed to enjoy anything when she has drawn the name of her arch nemesis, Tattletale May, for her Secret Santa Gift! But wait - the Secret Santa gift is the perfect opportunity to give May exactly what she deserves... Maybe. An important lesson about giving is wrapped into this holiday story, and complements the Alternative Gift Fair that will be taking place in the lobby of The Paramount. The alternative gift fair is free. Tickets for the Junie B. Jones performance are on sale now for $12.50 and $15.50. Get them online at www.theparamount.

This position promotes open rib cages in singers for optimal breath support. Music is integral to the experience of Waldorf students from their first days of nursery, when they sing along with their teacher as they clean up their toys, through the elementary grades, when they learn to sing in rounds and parts, and the middle school years, when they learn to sight sing and participate in multi-grade choirs.

sister who has a house right in Scottsville,” he comments. “It’s a wonderful old Victorian.” Whether out in the country or in town, there are definitely in and outs to buying a piece of history in terms of legalities, preservation, and updating. It’s a question finding the right buyer.

Who Is The Right Buyer For a Historic Home? “People just like the character of these old places,” Faulconer says. “There are the intangibles of the historic aspect. If you’re going to live out in

the country, you’re going there for that house. People come to our area from all over and they appreciate the quality of construction of these estates. In a sense they are also looking at themselves as stewards of the house. They want to be the next owner of some history.” “People who buy old houses are already thinking about it,” agrees REALTOR ® John Ince of Nest Realty Group in Charlottesville. “It’s not an impulse purchase because it takes so much passion to take care of a historic home. It’s a lifestyle. The value of a historic home is in the character of the prop-

There are always issues with older homes, Ince points out. “You have to take care of old siding, old roofs, old foundations.” On the other hand, he says, the ante-bellum homes around Charlottesville were built by people of means on ideal land sites. “You could make good bricks from the ground around here and people built 18-inch solid-brick walls, then faced them with plaster,” he notes. “If a home is still standing after 200 years, there’s a lot right about it.” In addition to the normal maintenance of an older home, Ince notes that there is the question of modernizing an old building. He has seen some very discouraging “modernization” in old homes—projects like linoleum over heart-pine flooring or vinyl siding over clapboard exteriors. “You just shudder,” Ince says with considerable feeling. Retrofitting with modern amenities always runs the risk of being intru-

sive or inconsistent with an old home. “People want to keep the houses true,” Ince says. “This means, for one example, they are hesitant to put in forcedair ducts that will compromise the historic integrity of the house. People take that seriously.” Another consideration is whether a property had been listed for Virginia or National Landmark Status. If so, there are certain criteria, guidelines and re-

quirements. The National Register of Historic Places, administered by the National Park Service, includes districts, buildings, and objects significant in American history, architecture, archeology, or engineering, and important to the history of their community, state, or the nation. There are both benefits and limits to being listed. Benefits may include eligibility for favorable tax provisions in certain cases and possibly grants for historic preservation, when funds are available. There are a number of tax incentives at the national, state and sometimes at the local level to help owners of historic properties with necessary upkeep and preservation expenses. Owners of private property listed in the National Register are free to maintain, manage, or dispose of their property as they choose provided that no Federal monies are involved—that is, they have not benefited from tax incentives or grants. However it is important to also consult with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources to be sure about state rules and requirements. It’s always a good idea to have a home inspection, in this case by a person well qualified to work with historic homes to check for things like adequate insulation, cost of utilities, existence of dry rot, mold, termites or problems related to the age of the home. In addition, Faulconer notes that insurance might be a bit more expensive because of the cost of reproducing historical features. “But usually the buildings are solid,” he says. “Probably the distance from local fire departments affects insurance premiums more.” It is just one more thing to consider.

Licensed to Sell Real Estate in the Commonwealth of Virginia

Renovations Are Rewarding, But Not Inexpensive Three years ago, REALTOR® Janet Matthews, owner of Charlottesville Town and Country, acquired a 100year-old historic property in downtown Charlottesville. “I purchased a 1910 bungalow in the historic district behind the old Martha Jefferson Hospital,” she says. She and her son, Justin, renovated it together. “In a historic district like this, exterior renovations are subject to certain rules,” she explains, “but fortunately the stucco exterior was in good shape and didn’t need any work.” She adds that interior renovations aren’t subject to approval unless the building is on the National Historic Register. In this case, her turn-of-the-last-century house was not a listed property and the interior was definitely ready for a makeover. Even though interior changes were not limited by rules or regulations, Matthews and her son, like most other buyers of historic houses, didn’t want to lose the historic character of the home. “The place had been well maintained,” she relates, “but extremely poor renovations had taken place so we essentially gutted it. We replaced all the old wiring, tore up all the carpets, and replaced all the light fixtures.” Under the carpets, they were happy to discover nice hardwood floors that they refinished. They redid the bathrooms with period-appropriate tile and fixtures and added an old claw foot tub to the upstairs bath. “I bought it over in the valley from someone who was demolishing an old house,” Matthews says with the satisfaction of a treasure hunter making a great find. “Renovating the kitchen was the largest part of the project,” she con-

tinues, adding that this is not at all unusual when renovating a property. “First, we removed the pantry to put in an extra shower. After that we reconfigured the entire area and replaced all the cabinetry and appliances.” Bluestone countertops and ceramic floor tiles provide a low-maintenance modern touch, but the glass-fronted cabinets definitely harken back a hundred years to the time the house was originally built.

What About The Cost? “Price wise there’s old and then there’s classic,” Ince says. “A classic historic home will demand a good price, but just because a property is 100 years old doesn’t make it a classic. You’re looking for a house with rooms of great proportions. The flooring is so important—it’s how you date a home.” Not only do you have to consider the on-going maintenance costs of an older property, but also the cost of renovations that may be needed. Matthews, who renovated the 1910 bungalow, says, “There are construction project managers who specialize in old buildings and they can be a great help. Still the caveat is this: whatever you think it’s going to cost, it’s never that, no matter how carefully you plan.” She estimates once the house had been bought, renovation by a contractor would have cost about half of the purchase price in addition. “But that’s if we paid for it all,” she says. “We left the electrical and plumbing work to professionals, but we did a lot of work ourselves—countertops, tiling, bathrooms, painting, you-name-it—so it the renovation cost was closer to about one-third of what we paid for the original house.”

Buying A Piece Of History “We are in an old part of the United States,” concludes Faulconer, the broker for Carter’s Grove. “People are coming here to enjoy the lifestyle and natural beauty of our area with its historical tone. What I see is people moving from urban areas to enjoy life in the country and have a beautiful trophy home with character from a different era from n history.” Marilyn Pribus and her husband live in Albemarle County just south of Charlottesville in a definitely non-historic home.

Modern Construction Uses Reclaimed Wood

By Glenn PriBus Photos Courtesy of Latitude 38

“W

hen you think of building or renovating in the Virginia country vernacular, it makes perfect sense to choose reclaimed wood,” says REALTOR ® Janet Matthews, owner of Charlottesville Town and Country. Matthews has an Art History degree from UVa and helped curate an exhibition on Jefferson’s Academical Village exhibition at the UVa Art Museum. “Not only does this bring new life to old things, it adds an element of continuity to whatever you’re building,” she continues. “In addition to keeping things out of landfills, it adds character and charm that you simply don’t find from molded plastic reproductions. Fortunately we live in an area where many craftsmen recognize the value of old timber.”

What Exactly Is Recycled Wood? “There are two kinds of recycled wood,” explains Mario Halkyer, one of the craftsmen Matthews is referring

to. Owner of Historical Salvage.com in Piney River in Nelson County, Halkyer specializes in old wood. “Reclaimed lumber,” he says, “comes from a log in the woods or a river—something where nature took it down. I find naturally downed trees, bring them in and mill them for flooring, paneling, wainscot, mantels, even furniture.” Salvaged wood, on the other hand, comes from old barns or other old buildings that are being demolished including houses, sheds, schools, stores and other sources. “In all aspects, it’s recycled in one way or another,” he says. “It’s all about being green. There’s great character and more patina in recycled lumber, especially in salvaged.”

Recycling keeps old wood out of landfills and bonfires, which is certainly environmentally friendly. An added bonus is that old wood likely has offgassed years ago, making it better for your home. (Off-gassing is the release of volatile organic compounds— VOCs—through evaporation over a period of time. Some of these chemicals are unhealthy to breathe in. Materials prone to off-gassing include flooring, cabinets and countertops, carpets, insulation, paints and stains, plywood and particleboard.)

Is Recycled Wood More Expensive? “It’s tough to compare,” Halkyer says, pointing out that new wood products aren’t comparable to recycled wood. “When someone buys wainscot from a building supply place, it is less expensive per foot. But when we make wainscot with old wood, it’s more durable, nicer to work with and just looks better. It takes lot of work to make new wood look old. When you supply a house with real old oak or heart

Architectural Details When remodeling, sometimes an architectural accent of recycled wood can punctuate the décor in a dramatic way. For example, a salvaged mantel or one newly created from recycled wood can be a splendid focal point for a room. Even a single wall of old wood can be a dramatic stand-in for a headboard in the master bedroom, the area over a built-in dining room buffet, a charming accent over a salvaged sink in the bathroom or to lend interest to a blank wall in a stairwell. Existing architectural beams can be faced with recycled wood and furniture created from old wood has obvious character. A recycled window between two interior rooms can provide light and decorating interest. Really, the possibilities are endless. n Glenn Pribus and his wife live in Albemarle County near Charlottesville. When they lived on the Poquoson River near Hampton Roads, they created a recycled mantel from drifting timbers (garnished with barnacles) they towed home behind their boat.

Reclaimed Wood EnhancEs homEs

Joey Conover is co-owner of Charlottesville’s Latitude 38, a homebuilding company focusing on urban infill. “Our houses are clean and modern in style,” says Conover, “but reclaimed wood creates a look we really like—a mix of old and new—and it warms the house up.” In fact, her own house has a lot of reclaimed wood. A keystone of Latitude 38’s philosophy is to create as little impact on the environment as possible. “It’s nice to reuse material when possible,” she says. They have obtained reclaimed wood from a number of sources including a colleague’s father-in-law who had an old barn. They also get supplies from businesses which specialize in recycled wood. “In one case, we put in some old basketball flooring from a high school in Philadelphia,” she says. “Some was refinished and some not.”

pine flooring, the beauty is there and it clearly shows.” Indeed, many people are clearly interested in old wood. “Everything is getting repurposed nowadays,” Halkyer says. “We’re in a recycled world. People are getting old windows, old doors that are solid—they don’t make them that way any more. They are getting things that are wore [sic] out and making them look good. You can’t buy that character new.”
