About This Home
Rare opportunity to own a large and flexible mountain property on 7 wooded acres just west of Romney, West Virginia. The main log home offers approximately 3,584 square feet with 6 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms across multiple levels. What really sets this property apart is the amount of usable space it offers, including three separate kitchen areas. A substantial portion of the main home was previously used as an in-law suite and has its own private entrance, making it a great setup for extended family, guests, or separate living space while still remaining part of the main residence. In addition, there is an approximately 700-square-foot detached finished area that was originally set up for business use. While it does not have an official bedroom, it offers excellent flexibility for office space, a studio, guest overflow, or additional living area depending on a buyer’s needs. With more than 4,284 square feet of combined space, this property gives buyers options that are hard to find. It could work well for multigenerational living, a large household, extended guests, working from home, or someone simply looking for more room and more flexibility than a typical single-family property provides. The home has the warmth and character you would expect from true log construction, with exposed beams, tall ceilings, plenty of natural light, and mountain views that fit the setting. The 7-acre tract is mostly wooded and offers privacy, room to explore, and a peaceful setting that is getting harder to find. There is usable ground around the improvements, space to enjoy the outdoors, and the kind of setting that feels tucked away without being too far removed. A detached one-car garage adds additional storage and utility. Located in Hampshire County just west of Romney, West Virginia, minutes from the South Branch of the Potomac River and within two hours of Washington, D.C., this property offers a rare combination of space, privacy, and versatility. If you have been looking for a property that gives you room to spread out and more than one way to live, work, or host family, this one deserves a look.
