Let's start with the 40 acres. The previous owner was in the excavating business, and the land reflects the amount of time and effort he spent in molding the property into very nice grounds.   From the entrance off the state maintained road, a paved driveway begins, bordered by three stocked ponds.  Long and winding, the paved drive encircles a beautiful log and stone home.  A large level pad offers clear and open space, adjacent to a machine shop, workshop, and mobile home attached to it's own well and septic system.  The land is quite conducive to cattle or horse activities, being somewhat cleared, and, while not quite flat, is gently rolling. The log home sits on a knoll, and offers terrific mountain views.  The log home was built in 2006.  The home offers a terrific floor plan, perfect for a family, or entertaining friends and guests.  With 2200 sq.ft. finished above grade, the main level focuses on a vaulted greatroom with a floor to ceiling stone fireplace.   A loft area overlooks the greatroom.  The mastersuite and two additional bedrooms are on this main level.  The greatroom and loft has hardwood floors, with matching 6 panel solid wood doors and matching stained trimwork throughout.  The kitchen is very nice, "U" shaped, with an abundance of cabinets, decorative tile flooring, center cook island, and breakfast area. The mastersuite has double walk-in closets and a tiled bath with whirlpool and separate shower.  This bedroom also has direct access to the rear deck. 

On the lower level is a finished familyroom with wetbar,  office space, 1/2 bath, and large workshop.  This lower level also has access to a covered patio with an outdoor, woodburning  fireplace. The deck above offers terrific views, overlooking an additional pond, and the mountain ranges beyond.  The home has an outdoor wood & coal burning furnace, which also circulates hot water through the home.  Or, propane heating is offered as an additional source.  Central air is also utilized.  This property is serviced by a private well and septic system.  The roof is metal, the exterior is log, and the foundation is covered in stone and painted. Annual taxes to Hampshire County, WV are $2563.  There is no homeowner's association, and there are no restrictions or covenants on the land.  The price is $597,684, and the MLS# is HS7310794.                                               Directions to the property:  From Winchester to the state line with WV, via R.50W, it is 14 miles.
