Property Description

Set beside Locust Creek and bordering the historic Locust Creek Covered Bridge, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath farmhouse rests on 3.39+/- private acres in Pocahontas County, WV. Inside, three stone fireplaces, antique southern yellow pine floors, and original hardwood floors reflect the care poured into this home, remodeled in 1998 with many updates in 2001 and a new well added in 2025. A wrap-around deck, part open and part covered, along with a covered front porch, invites you to sit back and take in the sound of the creek and the sight of the covered bridge just beyond the yard. This is a rare chance to own a true piece of West Virginia history. Steeped in history, the property sits a short distance from Droop Mountain Battlefield State Park, and the farmhouse itself once served as a Confederate Hospital. The Locust Creek Covered Bridge, listed on the National Historic Registry and maintained by the Pocahontas County Historical Society, stands right over the edge of the property, a daily reminder of the area's rich past. Inside, the farmhouse offers a warm, welcoming layout with three rooms each centered around its own stone fireplace: a living room, a dining room, and a third flexible space that could easily serve as a second living room or office. The kitchen features a cozy breakfast nook, perfect for morning coffee, and the full bath on the first floor adds convenience to the main living space. Upstairs, spacious bedrooms include a large bedroom with its own fireplace, along with a bathroom featuring a soaking tub for quiet relaxation after a long day. Outside, the grounds are just as inviting. Apple, chestnut, and walnut trees along with a grape arbor bring a storybook quality to the property, while Locust Creek offers trout fishing right in your own backyard. Two outbuildings, including a workshop, provide space for projects, storage, or hobbies. This is more than a house. It's a rare opportunity to own a piece of West Virginia's history, wrapped in the peace and privacy of Locust Creek and its storied covered bridge.
