Tucked on a private one-acre tract in Upshur County, this furnished cabin is the kind of place that quiets the week the moment you turn down the lane. Access is by a deeded right-of-way, so you arrive to solitude-not traffic. Sit by the woodstove in the corner of the living room, listen to the nearby creek, and you'll understand why families keep coming back here with children and grandchildren: this is where ordinary weekends turn into memories of a lifetime. The setting does the heavy lifting. You are only about six minutes from four-lane Route 33, yet the cabin feels a world away. Buckhannon is roughly 14 miles, Belington about 9, and Elkins about 19-close enough for groceries, school events, and a night out, far enough that the nights stay dark and the morningsy stay still. A one mile drive puts you at Audra State Park, one of the prettiest stretches of the Middle Fork River in this part of West Virginia. Crystal-clear swimming holes, lazy-river floating, trout fishing, picnic rocks, and the boardwalk under Alum Cave's sandstone overhang are the summer soundtrack. When the water is up, paddlers run the park's whitewater; when it's gentle, kids spend the day in the river and come home tired and happy. Hiking, camping, and wooded park trails wrap it all in the kind of beauty that makes this corner of Upshur County feel like a secret. Inside, the cabin is warm and finished in real wood: hardwood floors, cedar walls, pine and poplar ceilings. Heat is electric, with the woodstove for those evenings when the fire-and the creek-are the whole plan. Outside, vinyl siding and a metal roof keep things simple. The property has city water and a private septic. Priced to sell at $160,000. Cabin conveys furnished. Buyers must be preapproved through their lender for a private showing.
