Description of the Country Home
|
DEER CREEK FARM - Deer Creek Farm is an outstanding 1780 acre multipurpose recreational farm property located in picturesque Arbovale offering a 3,300' FAA approved runway, sweeping fields, breathtaking long range views, over a mile of stream, miles of trails, arrowhead fields, mature forestland, charming country lodge, airplane hanger, barns and much more. Additional recreational opportunities nearby include first rate trout fishing and the Snowshoe Mountain Ski Resort.
An expansive and mature mixed hardwood forest anchors the property that borders 2.5 miles of the Monongahela National Forest and also with local family farms. A charming custom built residence, numerous out-buildings, barns, and a hanger for light aircraft are positioned on the property for easy access. Productive pasture fills the bottomland created over time by a meandering Alder-lined cold-water stream. The property has easy vehicular access as well as a turf runway approved by the FAA and touted as the longest runway of its kind in the State.
An abundance of wildlife and inspiring natural features create an idyllic setting known to inspire best-selling authors. The property is poised at elevations ranging from 2,600 to 3,000+ feet, where the air is crisp and clean and the night sky is filled with an incredible expanse of stars.
AGRICULTURAL OPPORTUNITIES: Presently, the farm produces hay which is sold to local farms. In the past the property was a cattle, sheep and horse farm. Two large barns remain on the property and have been maintained to high standards. Numerous auxiliary buildings are located close to the main house. Water sources are adequate, provided by streams, a pond and water wells which could be used to replenish watering troughs. Approximately 200 acres are presently available as pasture/cropland. Limited fencing borders the property and paved state maintained highway and secondary routes provide excellent access to various agricultural areas.
RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES: On Property: Hunting, fishing, nature study, bird watching, flying, horseback riding, cross country skiing, mountain biking, ATV riding and arrowhead hunting.
Local: Downhill skiing and golf are within 25 miles at the famed four seasons Snowshoe Resort, bicycling on the Greenbrier River Trail, canoeing and fishing on the Greenbrier River and it's tributaries, scientific study at the National Radio Observatory, sight-seeing at Cass Scenic Railroad, hunting, fishing, birding and hiking Seneca State Forest, fishing and canoeing at Buffalo Lake, hiking and nature study at Gaudineer Scenic Area and Spruce Knob.
QUIET ZONE: Deer Creek Farm is located within The United States National Radio Quiet Zone which is a large area of land surrounding the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) at Green Bank, West Virginia, and especially the large Green Bank Telescope radio telescope.
TIMBER RESOURCE: There are approximately 1450 acres of beautiful mature forest that are being managed under the Sustainable Forest Inititive and this forest is also a member of the prestigious American Tree Farm Family. An extensive forest inventory was conducted in September of 2011 by professional foresters. The inventory shows over 250,000 trees containing some 7 million board feet of timber. The value of the timber at that time was estimated to be over 1 million dollars.
Superbly well done lodge originally set up to sleep 12 people. A comfortable place to relax after a day of adventure or warm up by the open hearth fireplace on a wintery day, this home is the springboard for fun-filled days. The natural materials used throughout and large windows give this lodge a refined rustic feeling.
