Description: WV country roads will bring you to this magnificent farm that has stood the test of time! Driving down the driveway you get a sense of what it must have been like in a horse & buggy or just a leisurely horseback ride from town. The 5 Bedroom home is actually the second home that was built on the property as the first met its fate in a fire. The home has had an addition that gives you room for guests, ensuite or more room for what you have in mind. The front porch wraps around the front for a wonderful view of the 100+ acres. Inside you'll find formal living areas that are adorned with fireplaces, built-ins as well as hardwood floors. The updated farm kitchen has plenty of room for cooks and tasters alike! This area of the home, new addition, has its own heat pump for heat & a/c. The upstairs is accessed by a wonderful staircase which leads to the bedrooms as well as to the stairway that leads to a floored attic for loads of storage!
The home has numerous outbuildings - one was used in the day for storing carbide for lighting the home. Small building in front was built for the 5,000 gallon cistern! The barn was built in 1888 and has seen many uses the last being that of a lovely wedding! Power and water are both plumbed into the barn. Full shop with 220 power & new wiring. Plus should it get a bit balmy in the summer, there's always the above ground 33 x 16 pool to cool off a bit!
Home is heated with a outdoor woodstove but also has an oil furnace if preferred. Water is prolific on this farm - house was once supplied by a spring in the front bottom that now feeds the pond. Well now supplies the home & is approx. 300' deep - it also fills the pool! Other springs are on the property as well as a year round creek that meanders through the south side of the property. Property is fenced and has been used for pasture and hay crops. Plenty of room to roam, hunt or just sit on the front porch and watch the sunset - Welcome to one of WV's treasures. Martha T.
