Across The Home

This place in Spencer, West Virginia sits on just over 50 acres of open fields and thick woods. You get that country quiet without being too far from everyday needs. The house is a 1935 single-story with 1,015 sqft – 3 bedrooms, 1 bath and a layout that flows from a combined kitchen-dining area into a cozy living room with bead board ceilings. It’s had some nice updates over the years: new shingle roof, insulated windows, new hot water tank and a reliable breaker box for electricity. City water comes in and an aerator septic system makes things easy. Out back is a 10×12 outbuilding for storage or a small workshop and the front porch is perfect for lazy afternoons watching the world go by.

What draws me back to places like this after a decade of scouting nature-tied properties is how they let you ease into a slower rhythm. Imagine mornings with coffee on that porch, listening to the trickle of a small stream that runs through the bottom of the property – it’s not a rushing creek but enough to soften the edges of the day. The yard levels off around the house so you can garden or just let the kids (or dogs) run free. Beyond that the woods stretch out with deer trails and turkey scratchings; locals mention good squirrel and raccoon sightings too if you’re into quiet hunts or just observing from afar. At night with minimal light pollution the stars feel close enough to touch – perfect for those reflective evenings that recharge you after city visits.

Price $139,000.
