A remote property in the central part of West Virginia more than four hours away from Tysons Corner will become a stunning retreat for this family. A crumbling civil war era cabin set into the hillside will be dismantled with the existing fieldstone chimney being reused as the central fireplace in a timber frame home with soaring 28 foot ceilings and breathtaking views. Salvaged heavy timbers will be set as landscape walls to complement the Douglas fir columns, beams and joists of the new structure.
The open main level and upstairs loft all share the unspoiled expansive southeastern view to the property’s 134 acres and the mountains beyond. The warmth and character of the traditional materials extend onto the wrap around deck set on stacked stone columns. There is a family focal point for each season with a generous screened porch, broad main fireplace and a cozy fire pit area outside against the hill. Everyone can find a favorite spot in this home.
