Embark on an adventure with this unique 22.5-acre property nestled in the heart of Calhoun County, WV. Located at 981 Jacobs Road in Grantsville, this secluded haven offers the perfect escape into nature. The land features a rustic cabin set in a tranquil hollow, surrounded by the gentle embrace of hills and dense woods, ensuring complete privacy with no neighbors in sight.
Access to this off-grid retreat is an adventure in itself, requiring a 4x4 to navigate the 1,500-foot driveway that crosses a creek before arriving at the cabin. While the cabin requires significant repairs or a complete rebuild, it presents a blank canvas for those dreaming of a custom hideaway. Additionally, a cellar house on the property shows potential for restoration despite some foundational issues.
The property is alive with the sights and sounds of nature, including a year-round stream that meanders through, and a diverse array of wildlife such as whitetail deer, squirrels, and turkeys. One of the land's unique features is a natural waterfall, complete with a "bathtub" like pool known as Grumpy's Bathtub, a nod to a former landowner and a local legend.
This acreage holds immense potential for transformation into a sought-after destination for hipcampers or an unforgettable AirBNB experience, appealing to those looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of West Virginia's wilderness. With only one other off-grid home on Jacobs Road, this property promises a serene and untouched setting, ideal for a hunting camp or a truly unique getaway.
If you're in search of a place with character, potential, and the promise of adventure, look no further. This is your chance to own a piece of West Virginia's rugged beauty.
