17.55 Shenandoah Mountain Rd, Mathias, WV 26812

There are properties you scroll past, and then there are properties that stop you cold. This 17.55-acre tract along Shenandoah Mountain Road in Mathias, Hardy County, West Virginia, is the kind that resets your system the minute you step out of the truck. It offers direct access from a county-maintained road—no questionable easements, no complicated entry points, and no HOA drama. Completely unrestricted, this is real mountain ground where you decide what gets built and how it gets used. The makeup of the land is exactly what serious buyers look for. You have a strong mix of densely wooded acreage for privacy, wildlife cover, and timber value, combined with an open field that gives you immediate usability for a homesite, cabin location, or food plot. Electricity runs along the property boundary, making development straightforward without sacrificing the off-grid feel so many buyers want. The elevation delivers both sunrise and sunset views—something you don’t find on every tract. Morning light breaking over the ridges and evening skies burning down behind Shenandoah Mountain become part of the daily routine here. From a hunting and recreational standpoint, this property checks the boxes. Hardy County is known for solid whitetail genetics and bear, and the blend of woods, edge, and open ground creates natural movement and bedding areas. Whether you’re setting stands, planting food plots, or holding the land as a long-term investment, the terrain supports it. This is ground that can be enjoyed immediately and improved over time. Location matters, and this tract strikes the balance. Secluded enough to feel like a true escape, yet within two hours of Washington, D.C., it’s a realistic weekend retreat and a smart long-term hold. You’re far enough away to breathe, yet close enough to make it practical. This is not a cookie-cutter HOA lot. It’s not controlled by covenants or someone else’s vision. It’s 17.55 acres of West Virginia mountain land where you call the shots—cabin, barndominium, full-time residence, hunting retreat, or simply a hard asset in a region that continues to draw buyers looking for space and freedom. Good mountain tracts with county road frontage, electric available, usable open ground, timber, and real views do not sit around. If you’ve been waiting for a clean, usable piece of Hardy County ground that actually makes sense, this is it. Walk it once—you won’t regret it.
