Description
Nestled in the picturesque mountains of West Virginia, this extraordinary lodge boasts over 8,000 square feet of luxury living. The grandeur begins at the entrance where an automatic gate framed by two majestic stone pillars gives you a glimpse of what is to come. The extra wide paved driveway, adorned with commercial streetlights, extends three-quarters of a mile leading to the log residence, the heart of the property. Spanning over 186 acres, you'll find a harmonious blend of natural beauty and meticulously crafted features. As you enter the four-bedroom main residence, you are greeted by breathtaking views of the Allegheny Mountains enjoyed from the countless floor to ceiling windows and the craftsmanship of hand-peeled Lodge Pole Pine logs harvested in Montana. The Gambrel copper roof, copper gutters, and downspouts add a touch of elegance outside, while the massive 36-foot mountain stone fireplace and chimney in the Great Room are just one of countless features creating a warm and inviting atmosphere inside. Designed for comfort and convenience, the home features an 8-zone heating and cooling system with steam electronic air cleaners. Flagstone patios, decks and French doors located throughout the property showcase the stunning surroundings and allow natural light to flood the interiors. Outdoor amenities abound, including a vanishing edge pool with a waterfall and spa, a regulation-size tennis court equipped for pickleball and basketball, a greenhouse, and approximately 2.5 miles of manicured trails that wind through the property. Four small creeks flow across the estate into Crooked Run Creek, a major historical creek dating back to before the Civil War. For equestrian enthusiasts, a stable complex includes a lighted riding arena, well-appointed stalls, a hot walker, and pastures. The barn complex also features a one-bedroom apartment, providing both functionality and comfort. Both the main residence and the barn complex have their own well, septic system, and emergency generator, ensuring self-sufficiency and peace of mind. Recent improvements include a newly installed gate entry system and a Fiber Optic telecommunications Network providing internet connectivity with speeds up to 1 Gigabits per second. The current utilization operates at 500 megabits per second and supports the implementation of the Eeros WiFi Nest System, the Ring camera Security System (9 total installed) and the Honeywell T5 WiFi-enabled thermostats (9 total) throughout the entire house as well as the barn. This property is a sanctuary of luxury, offering a rare combination of pristine natural surroundings, state-of-the-art amenities, and exquisite craftsmanship. It is a testament to fine living in the heart of West Virginia's beauty.
