This cute chalet is located on the mountaintop, in Ritter's Hidden Valley, in Hampshire County, WV.  Just minutes from Capon Bridge, 30 minutes from Winchester, Va., and under two hours from the Beltway.  This region is really beautiful at this time of the season while the colors are changing, and leaves are falling. You can really enjoy this property in all 4 seasons. You won't swim in the community lake right now, and you most likely won't enjoy the tennis court during the winter, but if you enjoy walking, hiking, atv riding, or taking advantage of the peace and quiet and fresh air, you need to take a look. This cabin was built in 1983.  There is a bedroom on the main level, as well as an efficiency kitchen, and a large greatroom.  The greatroom features a woodburning stove, and plenty of glass to take advantage of the views of the wooded acreage surrounding your.  There are also several nice rock outcroppings on the property that create character.  Included on the main level is a full bath, and storage closets.  A circular stairway takes you to a loft bedroom. Skylights help bring in the natural light.  Total square footage inside is 864 sq.ft. The flooring is carpet and vinyl. Interior walls are drywall, while the exterior is stained T-111 wood siding.  There are decks on both the front and rear. The heat source for the cabin is electric baseboard, and the woodstove.  The property utilizes a septic system, and a cistern for water supply. The cabin is built up on concrete pilings, and the crawlspace is skirted with exterior wood siding. I have talked before about all the amenities that Ritter's Hidden Valley has to offer. These include the swimming (& beach) and fishing lakes, tennis court, picnic pavilion, playground, and wildlife and nature to enjoy. There is no organized homeowner's association.  There is an annual fee that is paid to maintain the gravel roads, lakes, and park area.  This fee is approximately $300 annually.  Hampshire County real estate taxes are $336. per year.   This home is situated on a 5 acre lot.  The lot is rectangular, approximately 350' wide by 600+' deep.  The lot fronts on Ritter Drive, and actually extends a little on the opposite side of the road.  Beyond that is hunt club property, so you will not have any neighbors across the road.

Also, ask me to email you additional photos of the chalet, inside & out.  The price is an affordable $129,900, and the MLS# is HS6903134             Directions to the property:  From Winchester, Va., Rt. 50West for 17 miles, through Capon Bridge, W.Va., for an additional 2 miles, turn left on Dillons Run Road, drive 3.5 miles to left into Ritters Hidden Valley.
