Looking for affordable riverfront property with endless recreational potential? This 0.47-acre lot on the South Branch of the Potomac River offers a rare opportunity to own unrestricted waterfront acreage at an attractive price. Bring your mower and chainsaw—this property is overgrown and ready for some TLC, but the rewards are well worth the effort. The riverfront portion of the lot features level terrain with a gentle slope to the water's edge, providing easy access without steep banks, rocky drop-offs, or difficult climbs. Whether you enjoy fishing, kayaking, tubing, swimming, or simply relaxing by the water, this property offers an ideal setting for outdoor recreation. The upper portion of the lot provides additional usable space for RV camping or future development outside of the flood area. With no restrictions, you'll have the flexibility to create the weekend getaway you've been dreaming about. Just steps away from the White Horse Mountain conservancy with over 1700 acres of forest for public use hunting, hiking, horse-back riding, biking! If you've been searching for an affordable river lot with direct access to one of West Virginia's most desirable waterways, this property deserves a closer look. Enjoy the freedom of unrestricted ownership and make the most of everything the South Branch of the Potomac has to offer.
