Welcome to Matthews

 This is our 175 year old church which we lovingly restored over ten months 
and turned into our home furnishings and interior design store.


 This is the design studio which was previously the congregation hall built in 1983.
We gave it a false storefront facade to change the roof lines and match the church.
The sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains are a constant 
reminder of living in the beautiful countryside.


Our future knot garden is surrounded by antique fencing.
