Escape to the ridge and experience true mountain living in beautiful Pendleton County. Nestled on nearly 16 acres atop Sandy Ridge, this rustic cabin offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and breathtaking views. Inside, you’ll be welcomed by a stunning stone fireplace that anchors the main living space with warmth and character. The home features 2 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms on the main level, including a spacious primary suite with a recently added private bath — creating a true en suite retreat. A charming loft serves as the third bedroom, overlooking the living area below and capturing the beauty and openness of the home. Because this cabin sits along the ridge of Sandy Ridge Mountain, you’ll enjoy both sunrises and sunsets — a rare and remarkable feature. The backyard firepit area, complete with seating, overlooks rolling mountain views with a peek-a-boo opening through the trees that frames those unforgettable sunset skies. Additional highlights include a deck, screened-in porch for peaceful evenings, detached garage, and a garden area ready for your homesteading dreams. Privacy. Views. Rustic charm. Nearly 16 acres on the ridge. Don’t wait too long — or this property will be GONE.
