Major infrastructure improvements are creating new growth in Teays Valley
About 20 miles from the West Virginia state capital of Charleston, Teays Valley is among the most developed suburban communities in the Tri-State area that includes parts of Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia. A recent $5 million infrastructure grant for road improvements and utility hookups is paving the way for even more residential development. For now, the increasing supply of homes attracts buyers looking for top-tier schools, convenient shopping and easy access to recreation. "It is a great area. You get a lot of house for your money, and we have a fantastic school system, so it's great for people with young families," says Lisa Eden, a Teays Valley resident and Realtor with Old Colony Realtors. "We still have new construction going on, and it's just kind of like a little bedroom-style community, but we still have everything we need."

New suburban homes and townhouses amidst established starter homes
The median sales price for a single-family home in Teays Valley is around $360,000, though plenty of newer homes go for much higher. New construction can mostly be found closer to neighboring Hurricane in subdivisions jutting off Teays Valley Road. The area also offers vacant lots for suburban homes as well as empty land on isolated hilltops for homesteads, often selling for $100,000 to $150,000 per acre. "A lot of this was farmland originally, so we have more flat land than you would typically see in the Charleston area," Eden says. Communities of attached townhouses are relatively new for the area. Some were built in the 1980s, but most townhouses are less than 2 years old. In addition to new construction, plenty of cottages, ranch-style houses and split-levels were built in the 1980s and ’90s.

Short commutes to Nitro, long drives to Nucor and other new employers
Many residents commute to major employers like the Toyota Manufacturing Plant in Buffalo, about 25 minutes away. It takes a little over 30 minutes to drive west to Huntington, where dozens of major employers operate, and industrial jobs are about 15 minutes east in Nitro. Some residents are content to commute more than an hour north on U.S. Highway 35. "They just finished one of the big bridges and some of our highway widening projects," says Realtor Chuck Boggs III. "Over in Mason County, we've got Nucor coming in, and we've got the Timet Plant up in Ravenswood. A lot of those are multibillion-dollar projects, and it's really pushing the growth back this direction." Traffic isn't much of an issue on I-64, but commercial and rush hour traffic on Teays Valley Road leads to frequent slowdowns.
