About this home.
Welcome to ''The Forkhaven House''--a Picture-Perfect Mountain Retreat set on 12.6 scenic acres, where the soothing sounds of Cold Spring Run create a Peaceful, Storybook Setting, located just 5 miles from Lake Moomaw and Gathright Dam for endless outdoor recreation and nestled between the world-renowned The Greenbrier and The Omni Homestead Resort. Originally built in 1916, this classic two-story farmhouse is full of timeless charm while thoughtfully updated for modern comfort, including new HVAC, interior paint, flooring, replacement windows, updated lighting, and a beautifully remodeled upstairs bath. The main level features a welcoming entry foyer, formal living and dining rooms, and a spacious country kitchen complete with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a cozy ''keepin room," along with a main-level bedroom, full bath, and laundry room for added convenience. Upstairs offers the primary suite with private bath, additional bedroom space, and another full bath. Enjoy peaceful mornings and relaxing evenings from the covered front and back porches or the enclosed side porch. Adding incredible value is the beautifully finished 1,800 sq ft two-story apartment--ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or potential Airbnb/rental income--featuring 2-3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a charming kitchen, and its own covered porch overlooking the creek. The 12+ acres offer a versatile mix of open land and wooded areas, perfect for animals, gardening, recreation, or simply enjoying nature, while the creek provides a peaceful setting to relax and unwind--this is more than a home, it's a lifestyle.
