Secluded and charming 4BD/1BA log cabin (with addition) sitting on 58 diverse acres with meadow, pasture, forest, and natural spring-fed pond. This is the West Virginia retreat that checks so many boxes for buyers. Private access through horseshoe driveway with two gated entrances. Front porch with rocking chairs take you back in time. Most furnishings convey except some personal items. Historically, the land was used to hunt abundant wildlife. Currently, owners use the property as a rental property and to get away from the hustle and bustle. Would make a great Airbnb, and there is a current caretaker and tenant. Multiple structures on property for storage. Building materials and plan for an additional log cabin have been left by previous owner if you are looking for a project. Located minutes from charming Capon Bridge and Romney with restaurants, shopping and entertainment. Only 2 hours from DC area.
