This cottage fronts on the Cacapon River,
at Great Cacapon, WV. The river is easily 100' wide, and 6' deep at the
frontage. The lot has approximately 75' frontage on the river, on a level
lot that is .46 acre. This
home was built in 1967, and has 836 sq.ft finished floor space. There are
three bedrooms (one has a closet, two have wardrobes), a full bath, spacious
living room with a fireplace (woodburning stove), and kitchen with table
space. There is newer laminated flooring throughout. Very thoughtful for a
vacation home! Off the back of the cottage there is a large screened porch,
offering a grand view of the Cacapon. From the rear patio, walk down a few
steps to a concrete landing (great place for tanning), and down a few more
steps to a sandy beach area (when the river isn't up). This cottage is
solidly constructed of concrete block, and it easily withstood the flood we
had back in '92 (The block crawlspace underneath is great for storing river
stuff). Your lender may require flood insurance. The other side of the
river is very private, wooded, steep hillside, and the one home you can see
during the winter is at the very top of the mountain. |
Along with electric baseboard
heat, the woodstove will supplement nicely. This property has it's own
septic and well. Annual taxes to Morgan County are $357.00. There is no
HOA. Road maintenance is by voluntary contribution. This river front
community is known as Golladay Cacapon River Community. There is a
closeknit group of homeowners that keep their eye out for the neighbors.
The road deadends just a few homesites farther. The price is competitive at
$159,900. The MLS is
MO7307919. Directions:
From Berkeley Springs, Rt.9 West towards Paw Paw. Drive approximately
17 miles and watch for Golladay Road on your right. This will be
before the bridge over the Cacapon River, and just before the Largent
Community. Make the right onto Golladay. It is a little over a mile to the
riverfront. Stay left and continue, passing through the "no
trespassing-private property" signs. Go around the bend (log cabin on your
right), and the cottage will be four or five properties down on your right.
There is a Cedar Creek Real Estate sign posted. The physical address is 1230
Golladay Road, Great Cacapon, WV 25422 |
