Description

Nestled on the border of Preston and Monongalia Counties, this ±41.46-acre property offers an incredible opportunity for nature enthusiasts, recreational seekers, and those looking to build their dream home or retreat. Whether you’re interested in hunting, hiking, or simply immersing yourself in the natural beauty of West Virginia, this land provides a diverse and rich ecosystem for all types of outdoor activities. With easy access and a blend of rolling terrain, young timber, and abundant wildlife, this property is an unparalleled find. As you step onto the land, you’re immediately greeted by the sights and sounds of nature, with two beautiful streams running through the property, providing both aesthetic appeal and the soothing sound of flowing water. These streams add a serene touch to the landscape, as well as create ideal environments for the area's abundant wildlife. Deer, turkeys, small game, and various bird species call this area home, making it a hunter’s dream or a nature lover’s sanctuary. The variety of habitats, from wooded areas to open clearings, offers a perfect setting for birdwatching, hiking, and simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

The property’s diverse habitat is one of its greatest features. It boasts a young timber stand that’s still growing and developing, offering opportunities for future timber harvesting or simply appreciating the mature forests as they evolve over time. The mixture of deciduous trees and underbrush ensures a healthy, thriving ecosystem, supporting a wide array of local fauna. The retention pond, a remnant of the area’s strip mining history, adds a unique feature to the land, further enhancing the aesthetic appeal and providing a haven for wildlife, particularly waterfowl and other aquatic species. In addition to the natural features, a well-established trail system runs throughout the property, offering the perfect way to explore every corner of the land. Whether you’re interested in an afternoon hike, mountain biking, or ATV riding, the trail network provides easy access to the entire property, making it simple to enjoy and utilize the land for your preferred outdoor activities. These trails, coupled with the relatively flat terrain in some areas, ensure that the land is both accessible and user-friendly, making it ideal for recreational use and potential development.

The land’s proximity to both Preston and Monongalia counties ensures that it is within easy reach of local amenities while still providing the seclusion and privacy that many desire. Located just minutes from Morgantown, WV, the property is close enough to enjoy the conveniences of the city, such as dining, shopping, and entertainment, but far enough away to enjoy the peace and tranquility of rural living. Whether you’re looking for a weekend getaway, a hunting retreat, or a secluded residence, this property offers the perfect balance of accessibility and solitude.

The gentle rolling terrain provides multiple locations for potential home sites, each offering expansive views of the surrounding landscape. Whether you choose to build at the highest point for panoramic vistas or closer to one of the streams for a more tranquil setting, the property’s flexibility allows for a variety of possibilities. With easy access from well-maintained county roads, this land is ideal for a future homestead, cabin, or recreational retreat, all while still maintaining the natural beauty and privacy that make it such a rare find. For those with an interest in sustainable land management, this property presents a fantastic opportunity. The young timber stand offers the possibility of future harvesting or thinning, which could help manage the land for both ecological and economic benefit. The diverse habitat and abundance of wildlife also provide opportunities for nature conservation, making it a great option for those who value land stewardship and the preservation of natural spaces.
