Property Description

Unleash Your Imagination in Preston County! Nestled on 6.5 serene acres, this rare property offers the ultimate blend of historic charm, natural beauty, and modern infrastructure. The centerpiece is a historic circa-1900, two-bedroom cabin. Currently serviced by an outhouse (NO INDOOR BATH - the outhouse is the "bath" in the listing), this structure is a blank canvas. It is ready to be transformed into a modern home, luxury Airbnb, hunting lodge, wedding venue, or off-grid retreat. The property features many upgrades, including a new well, a registered septic system (condition unknown), electricity, a natural spring, and an expansive pond. Please note while these improvements are in place, the utilities should be independently verified by the buyer. Complementing the historic cabin is a massive 32x52 oversized detached building featuring an expansive storage loft. While currently serving as an exceptional garage and workshop, its impressive footprint and structural integrity offer an incredible foundation for a luxury barndominium-style residence in addition to the cabin. The location strikes a perfect balance, bordering vast, pristine forest acreage on one side for maximum privacy, while gently meeting a quiet residential area on the other. Whether you envision a stunning wedding venue, a private mountain estate, a recreational retreat, or a high-yield short-term rental catering to nearby tourism and military installations, this property is ready for its next chapter. The property is being sold as-is. Cash or construction/rehab buyers will find this property ideally suited to their purchasing goals. Schedule your tour today and explore the endless possibilities!
