A PLACE WITH A STORY 510 OTTMER RD., CANVAS, WEST VIRGINIA 26651 A West Virginia homestead with historic character and the room to create the next chapter. The Property Set within the desirable privacy of Ottmer Estates, this remarkable 32-acre property offers something increasingly difficult to find: land with history, character and genuine connection to place. A family farm for more than 70 years, the property combines an approximately 1,820-square-foot handcrafted log cabin built in 1999 with mature timber, natural springs, creeks, gardens, orchard ground and a landscape rich in Appalachian character. A Cabin with History The centerpiece is a handcrafted log cabin incorporating the original portion of a historic log home dating to the 1700s. Found on Point Mountain in Webster County, West Virginia it was carefully disassembled and relocated. This is not a polished, cookie-cutter luxury retreat--it is an authentic home with the warmth, texture and imperfections that make historic properties memorable. Inside are oak hardwood floors, a dry-stacked cut-stone wood-burning fireplace, a new wood-pellet stove, a loft, four bedrooms and one bath, with the primary bedroom upstairs. It has a combination of long-life metal and tin roofing, city water, and a septic tank. There is no air conditioning, but the 200-amp electrical service would allow that to be added, if desired. Land That Invites a Lifestyle The 32 acres provide a rare combination of usable ground and natural resources. A garden and orchard include apples, pears, peaches, mulberries and other stone fruits. Mixed-age timber, natural springs and a creek add both beauty and practical value as well as native wildlife viewings. Wild ginseng and ramps have been found on the property, and a hand cut spring-house feature adds another layer of Appalachian history. Room to Create A second 700 s/f log cabin is unfinished, offering an opportunity for a future guest space, studio, family retreat or income-producing use. The acreage also gives a buyer room to expand the homestead, develop additional outdoor spaces or simply preserve the privacy and character already here. Who Will See the Opportunity? This property is especially compelling for the buyer who values authenticity over convention: the history enthusiast, homesteader, outdoor lover, successful professional seeking a private West Virginia retreat, or someone who left West Virginia and wants a meaningful way to come home. It may also appeal to an investor interested in a distinctive short-term-rental or retreat concept, subject to local regulations, permitting and market feasibility of course. A Rare Combination Historic craftsmanship. 32 acres. Timber and water. An established garden and orchard. A private subdivision setting. A second cabin underway. And a location within reach of the recreation and attractions of the Summersville and New River Gorge region including the New River Gorge National Park & Preserve only 30 minutes away. This is more than a house on acreage. It is an opportunity to own a piece of West Virginia history--and shape what comes next. Property Snapshot $695,000 asking price. Selling the property 'As Is".
