Property Description
One-of-a-kind riverfront living, where the rhythm of the Cacapon River becomes part of everyday life. Set on just over two private acres, this 1-bedroom, 1-bath log cabin offers a rare blend of rustic charm and thoughtful updates, with an additional bunkhouse that creates space for guests, gatherings, or slow summer weekends that stretch a little longer than planned. Tucked just off a paved state road, access is easy-but the feeling is worlds away. Inside, the fully furnished cabin holds onto its character. A large stone, wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, while warm wood tones and natural textures reflect the landscape just beyond the windows. The kitchen has been carefully refreshed with quartz countertops, updated appliances, and modern lighting-bringing a clean, functional contrast to the home's classic log construction. Step out to the screened porch, where the river becomes the focal point-steady, calming, and always changing with the seasons. It's the kind of place that invites morning coffee, afternoon reading, and long conversations well into the evening. Recent improvements (2021-2022) have already been handled-from a new black metal roof and chimney liner to siding repairs, insulation, updated electrical, and refreshed outdoor spaces-allowing for a more seamless transition into ownership. Beyond the main cabin, the bunkhouse and open yard create a natural extension of the home. A fire pit, picnic area, and direct access to the river set the stage for swimming, fishing, kayaking, or simply sitting still and listening. Previously enjoyed as a successful short-term rental, the property also offers high-speed DSL internet and even includes a monthly utility credit-adding both practicality and value. Located just minutes from the small-town charm of Wardensville, with easy access to Winchester and the greater DC region, this is a place that works equally well as a weekend escape, an investment, or something more permanent. Some properties check boxes. Others create a feeling. This one does the latter. Schedule your appointment today!
