Your West Virginia home base is waiting. Set on 5.43 acres near Paw Paw in Hampshire County, this custom-built log home offers privacy, mountain views, tremendous storage, and the kind of character that is becoming harder and harder to find. The home contains approximately 1,456 square feet with two bedrooms and two full baths. Inside, you will find warm natural wood, exposed beams, and custom touches throughout. The main living area is the centerpiece of the home, featuring soaring ceilings and a custom-built German wood stove that creates the comfortable, rustic atmosphere a log home should have.
The kitchen fits the home perfectly, with handcrafted cabinetry, a farmhouse-style sink, generous workspace, and an open connection to the dining and living areas. Both full bathrooms have been recently renovated with Onyx stone showers and vanity tops, adding fresh, updated finishes while maintaining the character of the home. The owners have also completed a long list of meaningful updates, including an encapsulated crawl space, water softener and iron aeration system, 40-gallon electric hot water heater, stainless steel well pump, well pressure tank, seamless gutters, vinyl tilt-in UV windows, aluminum screen doors with built-in hideaway screens, aluminum soffits and window frames, and a lifetime guaranteed foundation liquid termite treatment. A split-system heating and cooling unit serves the bedroom and living room, adding comfort and efficiency to the home. Outdoor living is a major part of the appeal. Covered porches, open deck areas, mature landscaping, and beautiful views across the surrounding mountains provide plenty of places to relax and enjoy the setting. The property feels private and peaceful, while the acreage remains manageable and easy to enjoy. This property is exceptionally well equipped for anyone needing room for tools, equipment, hobbies, or recreational gear. The detached garage provides an excellent workshop, while several additional outbuildings offer even more room for all the tools and toys that come with life in West Virginia. Guests will have a space all their own in the converted RV, which is situated beneath a permanent covered structure and has been transformed into one of the most unique guest quarters you are likely to find. It is a fun and practical addition that fits the property perfectly.
Year-round comfort is provided by the mini-split heating and cooling system, along with electric baseboard heat for added flexibility. A propane-fired backup generator provides extra peace of mind and helps ensure you can continue enjoying the comforts of home during a power outage.
With its private setting, manageable acreage, updated systems, and versatile improvements, this property works equally well as a weekend retreat or full-time residence. It is conveniently located within reach of Interstate 81 and well under two hours from much of the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area. The nearby Cacapon River adds even more recreational appeal with opportunities for fishing, kayaking, swimming, and enjoying the outdoors. Custom log construction, mountain views, recent updates, outstanding workshop and storage space, backup power, and unforgettable guest accommodations-this is more than a cabin. It is a complete West Virginia property.
