About this home
Tucked away on 7.5 wooded acres in the heart of the Lost River Valley, this architect-renovated cabin is the quintessential mountain escape—private and secluded, yet remarkably close to the places and experiences that make Lost River so special.
Thoughtfully reimagined in 2010 by its then architect owner, the cabin pairs classic mountain character with a clean, open design that makes the most of its wooded setting. Dramatic two-story vaulted ceilings clad in warm pine rise above an open-concept living, dining and kitchen area, while a striking wall of glass fills the space with natural light and frames views of the surrounding mountains, mature hardwoods and towering pines. The well-designed kitchen is perfectly suited to a weekend retreat, with solid stone countertops, a gas range and an easy connection to the dining and living spaces. Just beyond, an expansive deck creates a natural extension of the cabin and provides plenty of room for dining, lounging and enjoying the quiet of the forest. The main-level primary bedroom is complemented by a generously sized full bath with a walk-in shower. Above the main living area, a fabulous second-story loft takes full advantage of the cabin’s soaring architecture and offers impressive mountain views. Furnished with a pullout trundle bed and tucked away from the primary living spaces, it makes an inviting and surprisingly private retreat for overnight guests. One of the property’s standout features is the oversized screened porch, with a vaulted ceiling and skylights creating a wonderful space for outdoor living through much of the year. Outside, the gently accessible yard wraps around the front, side and rear of the cabin, with a fire pit ready for evenings under the stars. Recent improvements include new ductless heating and air conditioning throughout, supplemented by electric baseboard heat. Fiber-optic internet makes it easy to stay connected or work remotely, and the property is being offered fully furnished for an easy, turnkey transition. For buyers interested in income potential, the cabin also has a proven history as a successful short-term rental, although the current owners have enjoyed it exclusively for their own personal use. Be sure to click the link for the video walk-through tour for an even better look at the cabin, its setting and everything this special Lost River retreat has to offer.
What truly sets this property apart is its location. Despite the privacy of 7.5 wooded acres, you’re just a few blocks from the heart of Lost River and 4 properties away, the Guesthouse Lost River. Lost River’s restaurants, shops, markets, local makers and community destinations are all close at hand, while Lost River State Park—with miles of hiking and horseback-riding trails, swimming and recreation—is just minutes away. Whether you’re looking for a personal mountain retreat, a weekend escape from the city, or a turnkey property with established rental potential, this is Lost River cabin living at its best: peaceful, private and immersed in nature, without giving up the convenience and community that make the Lost River Valley one of West Virginia’s most beloved mountain destinations. Approximately two hours from the Washington, D.C. area, it’s close enough for a spontaneous weekend and far enough away to truly feel like an escape....
