133 Max Miller Lane, Bunker Hill, WV 25413

Property Description

Imagine coming home to your own pasture, a red barn and a magnificent brick Cape Cod built by someone who cared how every piece came together. Leave the muck boots by the door. There is a fire to tend, something good cooking and a country evening waiting outside. At 133 Max Miller Lane in Bunker Hill, West Virginia, approximately 3.66 acres with no HOA offer room for your gentleman-farm vision. Five bedrooms, three full baths, five garage bays and substantial barn space bring the practical side of that dream together. High-speed internet availability supports working from home, while nearby I-81 and the Virginia border connect you with routes toward Northern Virginia, Maryland and Washington, DC. One father’s vision shaped this property. He helped craft reclaimed Route 11 telephone poles into the barn and worked with Mennonite craftspeople in Hicksville, Pennsylvania, on the handmade cherry bathroom cabinetry. His investment in the home is evident in its substantial masonry, beautiful woodwork and thoughtful everyday details. Inside, approximately 3,584 square feet above grade unfold around generous rooms and extraordinary materials. Pristine parquet hardwood floors warm the living room, where a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning stone fireplace and reclaimed-wood mantel create a gathering place worth coming home to. The kitchen’s custom Kentucky coffeetree cabinetry reveals rich, reddish-brown heartwood. There is room to roll bread dough, organize a canning afternoon and gather while dinner simmers. An eat-in area accommodates everyday meals; the separate dining room welcomes larger celebrations and opens to the sunroom. Here, windows frame the seasons. Fill the room with plants, open the windows to a summer breeze or settle into a comfortable chair with nowhere else you need to be. A main-level primary suite with wood flooring, double closets and an attached full bath offers flexibility for multigenerational living. Upstairs, four bedrooms share two full bathrooms. An unfinished bonus area with interior access and stairs from the attached garage invites plans for a future office, studio or recreation room. The attached two-car garage leads into a practical laundry/mudroom. Follow the custom cherry handrail downstairs to approximately 1,200 additional square feet of basement space, a second commanding stone fireplace, canning/storage room and walk-up backyard access. A wood chute from the garage makes tending the fire easier. Outside, the red barn combines character with utility: two stalls, substantial attached hay storage, an implement area, electricity and an accessible water pump. The front pasture has established post-and-barbed-wire fencing; the approximately half-acre rear field has a gate and fencing in great condition. For the collector, maker or workshop enthusiast, the detached three-car brick garage deserves particular attention. Its 24-by-44-foot footprint offers approximately 1,056 square feet at ground level, plus an expansive unfinished loft with stairs and hayloft doors on opposite sides. Workshop space and separately metered electricity make this a valuable home for tools, equipment and projects. The brick patio extends the gathering space outdoors with a custom brick wood-fired grill and sink. Beyond it, open lawn invites volleyball, dogs at play and evenings beneath a broad country sky. The land holds a little mystery, too. The owners report finding bullets and belt buckles here, while family stories of valuables hidden during wartime invite curiosity about the generations who came before. Meticulous care includes updated electric HVAC with oil backup, a new water heater, an approximately eight-year-old architectural-shingle house roof and a barn roof approximately three years old. Bring your plans for the pasture, your projects for the workshop and your favorite people for Sunday dinner. The space, craftsmanship and groundwork are already here.
