A detached single-vehicle garage is near the house, as well as a storage shed and a woodshed. While the property enjoys a very private, quiet location, it is only 10 minutes from Summers County Hospital, and 15 minutes from downtown Hinton, the Summers County seat, with restaurants, shops and services. Bluestone Lake, an ideal fishing, boating and camping spot, is nearby. This is beautiful country property that needs to be seen to be appreciated.
