What if your way out of the city was sitting just across the horizon? This 66.75-acre West Virginia farm is less than two hours from Washington, D. C. , but it feels a whole lot farther from the traffic, noise, and pressure that come with it. With a classic farmhouse, a new metal roof, a big wraparound porch, a beautiful flat yard, and mountain views, this is the kind of place DMV buyers hope to find when they start looking for a real piece of country. The home offers approximately 2,495 square feet with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a 2-car attached garage. It has the kind of look and feel you want in a farmhouse, with good bones, a comfortable layout, and a porch you will actually use. The flat yard is a big plus too. In this kind of country, it is not always easy to find ground around the house that lays this well and gives you this much usable space. The 66.75 acres are what really make this property stand out. There is room here for a small farm operation, a few horses or other livestock, equipment, recreation, and the kind of privacy and utility that people cannot find on a small lot, or worse, halfway up the side of a mountain. Whether you want a weekend place, a hunting property, or a full-time move, this one gives you the ground and the setting to do it right. For the hunter, the appeal speaks for itself. This area is known for big bucks, hard-gobbling spring turkeys, and black bears, and you are also close to the George Washington National Forest for even more ground to roam. It is easy to picture a morning in the woods, part of the day working around the farm, and the evening back on the porch looking out over your own place. Properties like this are getting harder to come by. You have real acreage, a farmhouse with character, a strong hunting setup, and a location that still makes sense for somebody coming out of Northern Virginia, Maryland, or D. C. If you have been looking for a mountain property with substance and a true West Virginia feel, this one is worth your attention.
