Built in 1943, the solidly built cinderblock home enjoys a peaceful secluded setting surrounded by woods, with views of the surrounding hillsides. The main level includes a living room, kitchen, dining room, office/family room, half-bath, and expansive front and back porches. The upper level has a large central landing connecting 4 bedrooms and a shared bath. Throughout the interior, both the flooring and woodwork are oak. Many rooms have ceiling fans and retain original details such as door knobs and plates, the dining room fixture, and more. The elevated front porch offers a commanding view across the front lawn of the surrounding hills and countryside. It opens into the living room, and a short hallway leads past the family room and half-bath to the kitchen and dining room in the rear. The kitchen cabinets are oak, with laminate counters and a double stainless-steel sink. The Whirlpool appliances include a refrigerator-freezer, an electric range, a dishwasher and a wall-mounted microwave. Attractive French doors open from the kitchen to the dining room. A screened back porch with painted wood flooring is just off the kitchen and affords views of the yard and garden. A handsome oak staircase leads from the living room to the upper level, where four bedrooms open to the landing. One bedroom has three windows overlooking the front yard, and another has three windows overlooking the back yard. Both of these rooms, which tend to get good sunlight, have ceiling fans. All the bedrooms have generous closets. The shared bath has a shower-tub, linoleum flooring and a porcelain sink in a white vanity. The full basement is partially above ground, and currently used as a utility and storage area. It includes a cast iron Ponderosa woodstove providing back-up heat for the home's heat pump, and a root/cold cellar. A basement door opens into the yard. Immediately adjacent to the home, the two-bay garage has new doors. The garage and its apartment above are on their own circuit. The upstairs apartment has a living room, kitchen, bedroom, bath, and sun porch. It has hardwood oak flooring, and is served by its own heat pump. While solidly built, it needs interior renovation. The back yard includes three raised garden beds, a good sized chicken house with a fenced enclosure, a small playhouse, fire pit, and an old well-works shed that is non-functional, but lends charm. Just beyond the property's gated entry at the bottom of the hill are a substantial two-level barn and an adjacent one-room former general store. The barn's upper level includes a large workshop with 220-volt electrical service and two finished rooms, opening onto a convenient loading area. The lower level includes horse/cattle stalls, storage spaces, and has plumbing already in place for a bathroom. The rustic general store next to the barn offers creative possibilities as a studio, or even a gathering place for local musicians. While this home enjoys a very private, rustic location, it is only 10 minutes from Summers County Hospital, and 15 minutes from the county seat of Hinton, with restaurants, shops and services. Nearby Bluestone Lake is an ideal spot for fishing, boating and camping. This is truly a one-of-a-kind country property that needs to be seen to be appreciated.
