$247,000 Canaan Valley Davis West Virginia $247,000 (Flat Ridge- Misnamed Pointy Knob Rd by County)

Absolutely the best get away home/retirement location East of the Mississippi. It is over 2 acres on top (close to 4000 ft elevation) of a generally flat panhandle that forms the South rim of Canaan Valley. Look at second picture (taken above ski slopes), the panhandle drops 600 ft to the Valley floor on right, and on left panhandle drops 2000 ft on left to Red Creek/Dryfork River -10 minutes. Half of the property is grass (pasture over 100 yrs -elevation so no bugs to bother cattle/now homeowners) at close to 4000 ft elevation- look to the right on the first picture and see one of the highest US flags in the East. There are birdboxes for Redtail Hawk, Eastern Bluebird and Tree Swallows from Honduras that spend the Summer. The other half is a cleared mountainside (for view) and an Expert ski slope- ski your own. All the utilities are in and underground. $15, 000 mature evergreen and deciduous trees along property lines, tucked in nature. The view East is the Eastern Cont. Div/Allegheny Mt Dolly Sods/Roaring Plains Federal Wilderness Areas (Arctic tundra/like Canada in South) and the view West is open to Ohio, fifth picture. Canaan is a four season area. Because of elevation never too hot in Summer. With plenty to do like National Wildlife Refuge with reception center trails and boardwalks, swimming, horseback riding, golf, tennis, tubing, hiking, kayaking (throw in couple kayaks) fishing (prefer fly), but lakes too, picking hundreds of acres of Wild Huckleberries (like little blueberries) visiting numerous WV festivals and enjoying many natural locations in State Forests and Mongohelia National Forest (million acres) and hiking. Spring - lush green and wild flowers. Fall best color in North America and Winter ice skating and skiing with two resorts for downhill and one cross country. Couple grandkids learned in Canaan, now ski the Alps. Why buy in the woods or next to other houses, when your family/friends can be in the wide open at the "top of the World" and closer to God, whoever your God is. Just take the Valley road/Rt 32 to South end of Valley Road, right on Backhollow Rd., then right up on Flat Ridge Rd - all State Roads- they fix and plow, except Pointy Knob Road - Association maintains- all visible on Google Earth- put Pointy Knob Rd WV in Search and scroll - down left- trees along property lines. House and land taxes are about $1600 with homeowners association $600 a year. It is less than 2 1/2 hours from Haymarket Va - safe - on mostly 4 lane Interstate type roads and there is Internet and cellphone service, as well as fire/medical/emergency department. Just selling because building on other lot. show contact info
