Description
Located along Squires Run in the Reedsville area of Preston County, West Virginia, this 78± acre recreational and timber tract offers a strong combination of accessibility, privacy, and long-term land value. The property features rolling Appalachian terrain with a mix of mature hardwood timber, natural regeneration, and open understory areas that create diverse habitat conditions for wildlife and recreation. Access is provided via a county-maintained dirt and gravel road, making the property significantly more accessible than many comparable large-acreage tracts in the region. This access allows for seasonal and year-round entry depending on weather conditions and intended use. While the property is currently undeveloped, septic would be required for any future cabin, campsite, or residential improvements, making it a strong candidate for off-grid or recreational development. The topography is characterized by rolling hills and gradual elevation changes rather than steep mountain faces, allowing for multiple potential build sites or cabin locations with proper permitting and utility planning. Several vantage points across the property offer scenic mountain views, particularly from higher ridgelines, making it well-suited for a cabin, hunting camp, or weekend retreat. Wildlife is abundant throughout this portion of Preston County. The surrounding forested landscape supports strong populations of whitetail deer, wild turkey, black bear, and small game species. The combination of timber cover, natural browse, and nearby agricultural valleys creates consistent movement patterns, making this tract highly attractive for hunting and wildlife observation. Timber value is an additional consideration for this property. The mix of hardwood species typical of the region may provide future harvest potential depending on management objectives. Buyers interested in land investment, timber management, or long-term holding strategies will find this tract aligns well with those goals. Preston County is known for its rural character, outdoor recreation opportunities, and proximity to both West Virginia and Pennsylvania markets. The area surrounding Reedsville offers a balance of seclusion and accessibility, with essential services available in nearby towns while maintaining a low-density, rural environment. The property is also within reasonable driving distance of larger regional hubs for supplies, healthcare, and commerce. This 78± acre tract is ideal for buyers seeking a recreational property with road access, scenic views, hunting potential, and long-term investment upside. Whether used as a private retreat, hunting basecamp, or timber investment property, it provides flexibility in one of northern West Virginia’s most desirable rural regions.
