323 Colonial Dr, Berkeley Springs, WV 25411
What's special
Modern cabin in the woods, one mile from Cacapon Resort State Park. Built by a local craftsman, this one-of-a-kind home is full of thoughtful details, custom trimwork and little flourishes throughout. Nestled on 2.9 wooded acres in the Appalachian Mountains, this 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath retreat feels worlds away from city life, yet sits just about two hours from Washington, D.C., and Baltimore. Modern luxuries include a chef’s kitchen, up to 7-gigabit fiber internet with Starlink satellite backup, and a spacious two-car garage with an outlet for fast Level 2 EV charging. At the heart of the house is a soaring great room with hardwood floors, wood-burning stove and floor-to-ceiling windows framing sweeping views of the surrounding woods. The open kitchen and dining area are designed for cooking and conversation, with a generous breakfast-bar island, granite countertops and a dual-fuel range with gas cooktop and electric double oven. Nature is the star here, with porches and decks wrapping three sides of the house. Nap on the swinging daybed on the screened porch or watch for deer and foxes on the hillside; grill on the open deck, stargaze in the salt-water hot tub, or gather around the smokeless firepit after dark. Spring blooms with redbuds; summer draws hummingbirds by day and sets the hillside twinkling with fireflies at night. Fall turns the woods red and orange, while winter opens sweeping views through the bare trees and, every so often, blankets the property in sparkling snow. The main-floor primary suite has a walk-in closet and spa-like bath with an oversized jetted soaking tub and separate shower. Upstairs feels like a private guest floor, with an oversized bedroom, full bath and roomy loft that works beautifully as a home theater, office or play area. A fenced raised-bed garden sits beside a greenhouse, surrounded by established native fruit and nut trees, including mature persimmons that produce generously each fall. The full walkout basement offers abundant storage and potential for additional finished living space. Recent updates include a new outdoor HVAC unit, refrigerator with ice-maker and cold water, dishwasher and dual-fuel range; the exterior was painted in 2024. No active HOA. Beyond home, the area offers an exceptional mix of outdoor adventure and small-town charm. Just down the road, 6,000-acre Cacapon Resort State Park offers a sandy swimming beach, hiking and mountain-biking trails, horseback riding, fishing, skeet-shooting, and a championship golf course. Its two lakes are stocked with trout each spring, while the nearby crystal-clear Cacapon River is ideal for paddling, tubing and fly-fishing. Head north to historic Berkeley Springs, a quirky spa and arts town built around mineral springs, or south to Winchester, Virginia, roughly half an hour away, for restaurants, shopping and city conveniences. This rare, locally built home combines real character and craftsmanship with the privacy of the mountains and easy access to dining, culture and adventure.
