Property Description

Nestled in the heart of West Virginia’s rolling highlands, yet only two hours from Dulles Airport, Walnut Hill is a rare and remarkable legacy estate offering 118.36 acres of pristine landscape, 4,200 square feet of finished living space in three buildings, contemporary architecture, and unmatched serenity. In addition to the recently renovated main house, the property comes with two additional structures, one is a true guest house, and the other can be used as guest quarters, a gym, or even a seminar space for retreats. The complex is surrounded by panoramic mountain views, miles of private hiking trails, and anchored by a glistening spring-fed pond which, through a pumping system, supplies endless water for gardening. This property is an immersive retreat for nature lovers, creative spirits, and those seeking refuge from the pace of the world. At the center of the estate lies a thoughtfully designed sunken stone courtyard—a peaceful gathering space that connects the property’s three structures. The main residence offers over 2,000 square feet of thoughtfully crafted living space, with soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and a commanding double-sided brick radiant heater sufficient to heat the whole house. A chef’s kitchen with granite countertops, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, double ovens, and a 6-burner LP gas cooktop flows effortlessly into the formal dining area, where breathtaking views pour in through every opening. The primary suite is a luxurious escape, featuring a deep soaking tub framed by twin five-foot windows that bring in the outdoors. Two additional rooms—originally designed as his-and-her offices—offer built-in shelving and flexibility for guests, hobbies, or creative pursuits. Follow the raised walkway to the “Workshop”, a soaring structure with massive windows, two loft bedrooms, a wet bar, and a wide-open central space suited for gatherings or a gym. Inside this structure you will also find a large cedar-lined sauna, full bath, laundry area, and access to a two-car garage. Steps beyond, the actual Guest House mirrors the same architectural elegance. Inside, a generous living room, full kitchen and bedroom open to a spectacular loft bedroom crowned by red oak, birch, and mahogany columns. A partial basement offers extra storage and connects to a two-car carport—perfect for guests or recreational equipment. Wander beyond the buildings and you’ll discover miles of private walking trails and the peaceful pond where you can cast a line, take a dip, or reflect beneath the canopy of trees. Equipped with three individual wells and a backup generator, this property could easily be converted to an off the grid estate. Comprising over 4,200 square feet of finished living space, Walnut Hill is an ideal multigenerational estate, private retreat, or creative refuge—one of the most unique offerings in all of West Virginia. This tranquility is located just 2.5 hours from Washington, D.C. and under three hours from Pittsburgh, offering peaceful seclusion without sacrificing access to major metropolitan centers.
