About this property

Tucked on a private one-acre tract in Upshur County, this furnished cabin is the kind of place that quiets the week the moment you turn down the lane. Access is by a deeded right-of-way, so you arrive to solitude-not traffic. Sit by the woodstove in the corner of the living room, listen to the nearby creek, and you'll understand why families keep coming back here with children and grandchildren: this is where ordinary weekends turn into memories of a lifetime. The setting does the heavy lifting. You are only about six minutes from four-lane Route 33, yet the cabin feels a world away. Buckhannon is roughly 14 miles, Belington about 9, and Elkins about 19-close enough for groceries, school events, and a night out, far enough that the nights stay dark and the mornings stay still. A one mile drive puts you at Audra State Park, one of the prettiest stretches of the Middle Fork River in this part of West Virginia. Crystal-clear swimming holes, lazy-river floating, trout fishing, picnic rocks, and the boardwalk under Alum Cave's sandstone overhang are the summer soundtrack. When the water is up, paddlers run the park's whitewater; when it's gentle, kids spend the day in the river and come home tired and happy. Hiking, camping, and wooded park trails wrap it all in the kind of beauty that makes this corner of Upshur County feel like a secret. Inside, the cabin is warm and finished in real wood: hardwood floors, cedar walls, pine and poplar ceilings. Heat is electric, with the woodstove for those evenings when the fire-and the creek-are the whole plan. Outside, vinyl siding and a metal roof keep things simple. The property has city water and a private septic. Priced to sell at $160,000. Cabin conveys furnished. Buyers must be preapproved through their lender for a private showing.

Questions to ask before you buy

Questions worth investigating for any waterfront property. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.

1. Who owns the shoreline and the land under the water, and are there easements or public-access rights along it?Ownership can stop at a high-water line, a survey line or a seawall. A title search and survey answer this, not the listing.
2. Is a dock, slip, lift or mooring included, and do the rights transfer to you?Docks can be shared, leased, assigned by an association or held under a permit that does not automatically transfer.
3. What permits exist for the dock, seawall or other shoreline structures, and what would new work require?Shoreline work is often regulated by local, state and federal agencies.
4. How much does the water level change by season, by tide or by reservoir management?Depth at a dock in one season can differ a lot in another.
5. What does flood insurance cost for this property, and what does the current flood map show?Get a quote from an insurer or agent. A flood zone is not a premium, and no zone does not mean no risk.
6. What maintenance does the shoreline need (seawall, bulkhead, riprap, erosion), and what has been done recently?Shoreline structures are expensive to repair; ask for records and inspection reports.
7. How are water, sewer or septic, and power provided?Waterfront septic systems and wells can have extra rules and inspections.
8. How do you reach the property by road year-round, and who maintains that road?Some waterfront roads are private, seasonal or shared.
9. What local rules apply: rentals, docks, boat lifts, fences, tree removal, setbacks?Rules come from the town, county, state, lake authority or association and vary widely.
