Property Description
Nestled in the heart of West Virginia's rolling highlands, Walnut Hill is a rare and remarkable legacy estate offering 118.36 acres of pristine landscape, contemporary architecture, and unmatched serenity. Framed by panoramic mountain views and anchored by a glistening spring-fed pond, this property is an immersive retreat for nature lovers, creative spirits, and those seeking refuge from the pace of the world. At the center of the estate lies a thoughtfully designed sunken stone courtyard—a peaceful gathering space that connects the property's three primary structures. This open-air hub is more than a passageway; it is the heart of Walnut Hill, where architecture, nature, and community converge in perfect balance. The main residence offers over 2,000 square feet of finely crafted living space, with soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a commanding double-sided brick fireplace with warming oven. A chef's kitchen with granite countertops, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, double ovens, and a 6-burner LP gas cooktop flows effortlessly into the formal dining area, where breathtaking views pour in through every opening. The primary suite is a luxurious escape, featuring a deep soaking tub framed by twin five-foot windows that bring the outdoors in. Two additional rooms—originally designed as his-and-her offices—offer built-in shelving and flexibility for guests, hobbies, or creative pursuits. From the sunken patio, stone paths lead gracefully to the “Workshop”, a soaring structure with massive windows, two loft bedrooms, and a wide-open central space suited for yoga, art, or gathering. Inside you'll also find a cedar-lined sauna, full bath, laundry area, and access to a two-car garage. Steps beyond, the Guest House mirrors the same architectural elegance. Inside, a generous living room and full kitchen open to a loft bedroom crowned by red oak, birch, and mahogany columns. A partial basement offers extra storage and connects to a two-car carport—perfect for guests or recreational equipment. Wander beyond the buildings and you'll discover miles of private walking trails, vibrant boardwalks, and a peaceful pond where you can cast a line, take a dip, or reflect beneath the canopy of trees. The land is easily walkable, visited daily by deer, turkey, and other native wildlife. Equipped with three individual wells, a backup generator, and enduring architectural vision throughout, Walnut Hill is an ideal multigenerational estate, private retreat, or creative refuge—one of the most unique offerings in all of West Virginia. All of this tranquility is located just 2.5 hours from Washington, D.C. and under three hours from Pittsburgh, offering peaceful seclusion without sacrificing access to major metropolitan centers.
