About This Home

Step back in time with this investor’s delight—a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse built in 1919, situated on approximately 7.5 acres across two deeded lots in the scenic hills of Terra Alta, WV. Located just 1.5 miles from the Maryland state line near Corinth, this unique property offers the charm of a bygone era, the space for creativity, and the potential to create something truly special. This two-story farmhouse features vintage character throughout, including some original hardwood floors, period details, and the original cistern still intact. The roof is a four-year-old architectural shingle, and the property has working utilities with multiple heat sources: propane, fuel oil, and wood. The home is livable, but will need updates and repairs, and is being sold as-is. Outside, the property includes a 30x40 garage/workshop/pole barn—perfect for storage, projects, livestock, or a home-based business. A hand-dug well serves garden or plant watering needs. There’s also a peaceful goldfish pond and a remarkable stone cabin on-site, estimated to date back to the late 1800s—adding a touch of historical charm and endless potential for creative restoration. With 7.5 acres of open space, this property offers plenty of room for expansion, gardening, animals, or simply enjoying the quiet of rural West Virginia living. Whether you're an investor, renovator, or someone with an imaginative eye looking for a project, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history. The location is rural yet convenient—just minutes to Terra Alta’s amenities, and a short drive to Deep Creek Lake, Oakland, and other attractions in both West Virginia and Maryland. Bring your vision and transform this unique property into a private retreat, hobby farm, or restored historic residence.
