They say location is everything. In this case they may be right, but there’s a heck of allot more.

Nestled in the mountains of West Virginia in the county deemed “Natures Playground”, lies a hidden gem of a home on 32 very private acres. In these turbulent times this is exactly the home you’d like to live in. It’s remote, private, yet close enough to necessities and resorts. In 45 minutes in each direction you can find world class things. Whether it’s the Omni Homestead, or Greenbrier Resorts, the Green Bank Observatory, or Snowshoe, you are centrally located to access all of them.

This 3800 square foot home, built in 2009, features everything you’d imagine a luxury home to have and some things you wouldn’t. It features 4 bedrooms, 3 1/2 baths, laundry/mud room, pantry, open concept living/dining/kitchen/nook, an enclosed deck … and that’s just part of it. For those looking for much more, this home features a large family room complete with a 72″ TV with surround sound, a recreation room large enough to house a professional sized billiards table, a full wet bar, and an exercise area. It even has an attached, two car, heated garage, with hot and cold water spickets, and an automatic door opener.

This two story home has a full walk out basement and for every living space there are french double doors to either private decks or private adjoining patios.

But, that’s not all. There’s a detached building with another two car garage a heated office / kitchen / 1/2 bath and wood shed. There’s a wood burning furnace which, if you have the brawn and inclination, can generate enormous savings on your heating bill. The wood burning stove supplements the hot water heating the basement radiant floor and detached office. I say supplements, but in reality it fully heats the house on its own. A radon system was recently added to reduce radon levels well below the national requirements.

All this resides on 32 acres equally divided into forest and pasture with 2 all season creeks bordering two of the sides. Check out the parcels in the ‘Property’ gallery.

Every room is wired for high speed internet. While it’s nice and convenient to have wireless, having ‘wire’ in each room allows one to take full advantage of the high speed internet available. Furthermore, wired networks are inherently more secure and safe. Please note: because you’re near the famed Green Bank Observatory, cell phone access is extremely limited due to policies established to protect the research at the observatory. While this may seem to be a travesty to some, there’s a sense of extreme tranquility when one can leave that behind and focus on the beauty this property and the surrounding area has to offer. If you’re part of that demographics which is looking to escape the city and seek a more peaceful lifestyle, this is your opportunity.
