The Clear Brook community offers rural landscapes in western Virginia
Clear Brook is a rural community of Virginia where bucolic landscapes and patches of farmland fan out from the highway on the West Virginia border, connecting the area with Winchester and Martinsburg. “One of the best things about Clear Brook is its proximity to the Route 37 and Interstate 81 interchange,” says Lori Bales, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty. “It’s just very convenient … It’s close to West Virginia for people who need to commute, and it has great potential for growth because it’s between Martinsburg and Winchester, so it’s getting growth from both directions.” Many homes in the community offer acreage, where residents can escape from the hustle and bustle while just still being a short drive from bigger cities. “The mixture of its convenience to the activities of Winchester, and yet still maintaining privacy in a rural feel, is a nice combination in Clear Brook,” Bales says.
