Lot 11 Smith Heights Franklin, WV 26807

CLIFFSIDE RIVER VIEWS & 23+ ACRES OF MOUNTAIN ADVENTURE! Perched above the South Branch River, this unique offering combines stunning river views, a desirable building lot, and over 23 acres of rugged West Virginia mountain terrain! The property consists of two separate parcels-Lot 11, a 1.33-acre parcel located within Smith Heights, and a larger 21.68-acre parcel bordering the South Branch River in the infamous River Gap Canyon. Lot 11 offers an excellent opportunity for someone looking to build with a view. Situated high above the river, the lot provides beautiful views of the South Branch below, with the river becoming even more visible during the fall and winter months when the leaves are off. Public water is available to the parcel. A traditional septic system was not approved by perc testing, so any development would need to utilize an alternative setup, such as an off-grid system or holding tank with required pumping. If you've been searching for an affordable mountain building site with an incredible view and are comfortable with a holding-tank system, this could be the one! The 21.68-acre riverfront parcel offers a completely different experience. The terrain is extremely rugged, featuring impressive rock formations, massive boulders, caves, canyons, and natural areas just waiting to be explored. This property would make an incredible recreational retreat for hiking, climbing, exploring, or simply enjoying the beauty and solitude of the mountains. Imagine building your cabin or mountain home high on the hillside overlooking the river, then spending your days exploring the rugged canyon, climbing the rock formations, or relaxing beside the South Branch River below. Properties offering this combination of river views, acreage, rugged terrain, and recreational opportunities are hard to find! If you've been looking for a property with character, adventure, and an unforgettable mountain setting, come take a look! Call today to schedule your private showing.
