This tucked-away spot in Preston County offers a quiet escape into the rolling hills of northern West Virginia. Picture a two-story cabin nestled among mature trees on 32 acres of gently sloped, managed timberland—think oak, hickory, and the kind of forest that whispers with every breeze. The cabin itself is straightforward and cozy, with one bedroom downstairs and a spacious loft upstairs that could easily sleep a few more with some simple setups. A single bathroom keeps things practical, and since all furnishings and appliances come with the place, you could settle in without much fuss.
What draws me to properties like this after years of scouting them is how they invite a slower pace. Mornings might start with coffee on the porch, listening to birds in the canopy, then a short walk through your own woods to check on the timber stand—it’s certified managed, so there’s potential for sustainable harvesting if that’s your interest, or just leave it as a private buffer from the world. The land rolls with natural contours, offering spots for a garden or even a small pond if you feel like tinkering. Wildlife is plentiful here; deer trails crisscross the acreage, and in fall, the colors turn the whole place into a living painting. It’s not remote in a harsh way—gravel roads lead right to the door, and basic utilities are in place, though you’d want to confirm well water and septic details with the agent.
For families or solo adventurers, this setup supports off-grid leanings without full commitment. The loft makes it versatile for guests, and the subsurface mineral rights transfer, adding a layer of security. Surrounding it all is the kind of Appalachian quiet that recharges you, far from city noise but close enough to everyday needs.
Price $94,900.
