A quieter, greener setting outside Morgantown
Just outside the Morgantown limits, Brookhaven stretches out over creeks, dense forest and an eclectic housing landscape, pushing east until it meets the mountains. “Even though it’s a short distance to our downtown, it’s still very much out of downtown,” says Jennifer Romeo, who has sold extensively here as the principal salesperson of White Diamond Realty. Interstate 68 separates homes here from city life, offering a tranquil suburban-rural mix with its own restaurants, top-rated schools and access to recreation.
Brookhaven is a beautiful and majestic neighborhood just outside of a big city.

Varied entry points into Brookhaven's housing market
Brookhaven’s housing stock serves varied budgets and desires. “It’s typically more affordable than Cheat Lake or in town,” Romeo says. “There are areas with more land, and there’s a fair amount of new construction, but it’s a wide range.” Construction here has continued from the 1950s to the present, with older fixer-uppers starting as low as $50,000. Turnkey properties with three or four bedrooms can sell between $220,000 and $475,000, with brand-new construction, fully renovated builds and homes on 1- or 2-acre plots occupying the higher end. This mix of ages and price points creates an eclectic architectural landscape, from ranch-style homes and Colonial Revivals to split-levels and New Traditionals. Pockets of townhouses also populate the neighborhood, priced between $200,000 and $350,000. Buyers looking to build can find a quarter acre around 40,000.

Outdoor education on the Deckers Creek Trail
Nature surrounds Brookhaven, offering a wealth of opportunities for hiking, wildlife spotting and watersports like swimming and kayaking. About a mile up Earl L Core Road is Deckers Creek Nature Trail and Park, an entry point to forested, creekside hiking. The Friends of Deckers Creek preservation organization operates an outdoor classroom there, hosting free educational events like Save The Frogs Day, featuring crafts, games and lessons centering amphibians. Dramatic, mountaintop vistas are a few miles east at the Snake Hill Wildlife Management Area. Hiking trails lead to views of Cheat Lake, cutting through a dense forest floor populated with ferns and colorful wildflowers in the spring. Further hiking and rock climbing at Coopers Rock State Forest is about 13 miles away.

Chinese food or cheesecake on Earl L Core Road
Brookhaven residents have a handful of local restaurants along Earl L Core Road, including Homegrown Pizza, a popular stop known for inventive pies with toppings like crab rangoon and barbecue chicken. Diners top off their meal with a cannoli or slice of cheesecake. Down the street, Morgantown Magazine voters named China City the best Chinese restaurant in the city in both 2023 and 2024. In Brookhaven, summer days often include a trip to Dari Delite, a family-owned ice cream shop with a drive-through window.
A short drive up Earl L Core Road also leads to Kroger and Aldi, fast-food restaurants such as McDonald’s and small businesses like Fawley Music, Morgantown's go-to music store opened in 1931.

Traffic can slow down commutes to Morgantown
Buyers should keep traffic in mind, Romeo says, especially when considering daily commutes. “Brookhaven can be 20 minutes to downtown, even though technically it’s probably less than 3 miles from town.” Anyone who prefers not to drive can catch the RT 8 bus line, which stops along Earl L Core Road. People here have quick access to Interstate 68, the first step on the route to Pittsburgh about 70 miles away. Morgantown Municipal Airport is less than 5 miles away, which has flights to Pittsburgh and Washington D.C.
