About This Home
Walla Halla Retreat is in the heart of the New River Gorge recreation mecca. There are two homes on this property. The pristine 408 +/- acres offers rural estate qualities with the upside potential for future development. Walla Halla is one of the larger forest ownerships within this region and, therefore, represents an opportunity to create a classic family ownership legacy for the next tenure. Walla Halla Retreat shares a common boundary with the 70,000-acre New River Gorge National Park and Preserve. The custom-built main residence sits high atop a backbone ridge overlooking the vast New River Gorge and its mighty river below. With a well-managed mix of hardwoods and hemlock, this property has been managed for decades to support and sustain thriving wildlife populations, resulting in exceptional recreational opportunities. Miles of forest trails wind their way across the sprawling mountain with an opportunity to visit enchanting waterfalls. History in this area runs deep and the property's address - River Road - is a reference to a historic commerce road that connected many of the farms and estates in the area to the New River and C&O Railroad, key economic conduits of the second half of the 1800's. The old road was basically carved out of the New River Gorge's solid sandstone outcrops and near vertical shale banks. Recently, the narrow and very crooked road was widened to two lanes and state of the art retaining walls were installed to keep the mountain side from caving in. WALLA HALLA RETREAT Watch as the colors shift with the light and the seasons. Expansive views across the awe inspiring New River Gorge and the New River, the second oldest river on the planet. Exceptionally well constructed and anchored by a towering floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, the great room welcomes with warmth, grandeur, and craftsmanship that commands attention. Vaulted ceilings, wide plank wood floors, and abundant windows flood the space with natural light, framing breathtaking vistas from every angle. Evenings are well spent nestling around the wood-burning fireplace, sharing memories with loved ones. The stylish kitchen features stainless appliances, custom cabinetry, and a spacious walnut topped breakfast bar with seating. The great room opens to a generous deck, expanding the main level living area and creating the ideal setting for dining alfresco or enjoying happy hour with friends and neighbors. The home's three bedrooms offer peaceful havens and welcomed respite. Early morning brings magnificent sunrises that spark excitement for a new day. At nearly three thousand feet elevation, breathing the fresh mountain air is invigorating and revitalizing. On the lower level, a large family room offers a relaxed space to hang out while a second expansive deck provides another vantage point to soak in nature's beauty. Also on this level is a full bath, wet bar, and mechanical room. Off the lower deck, a custom stone patio becomes the heart of everyone's outdoor experience where roasting s'mores with grandkids, sharing stories with friends, and savoring peaceful evenings beneath the stars quickly becomes a lifestyle. Live and play where the sky meets the ridge lines, and peace meets possibility.
