Saltlick Road
Rowlesburg, WV, 26425

Located on Saltlick Road near Rowlesburg in Preston County, West Virginia, this 5.808-acre property offers an opportunity to own a manageable tract of rural land with residential and recreational potential. The property features rolling terrain, county road frontage, and a setting that provides the space and flexibility associated with rural West Virginia land. Whether your plans involve building a future homesite, creating a private recreational property, establishing a weekend retreat, or simply securing acreage in Preston County, this property offers a practical starting point. The rolling topography provides natural character and varying terrain across the tract, while the rural setting places the property in an area known for outdoor recreation and access to the mountains and valleys of northern West Virginia. One of the most important features of the property is its road access. The property has frontage along Saltlick Road, with an existing gate at the proposed access location. The West Virginia Division of Highways has preliminarily confirmed that a driveway can be installed at the existing gate. A driveway application will still need to be submitted and approved before construction. The seller has the relevant contacts and information regarding the preliminary confirmation and can provide that information to the future buyer. Buyers should conduct their own due diligence with the appropriate West Virginia Division of Highways office and other applicable authorities regarding driveway design, permitting, construction requirements, and final approval. WVDOH requires permits for driveway approaches connecting to state highway rights-of-way, and applicable requirements depend on the road and right-of-way involved. Electric service is nearby, providing a potential utility advantage for future development. A septic system will be needed. The property’s combination of acreage, road frontage, rolling terrain, and rural location creates several potential recreational uses. The acreage can provide space for outdoor activities, nature observation, hiking, camping, and other personal recreational pursuits, subject to applicable laws, regulations, and property conditions. Preston County and the surrounding region offer a variety of opportunities for outdoor recreation, including parks, trails, hunting, fishing, and other activities associated with the mountains and waterways of north-central West Virginia. For those interested in hunting and wildlife recreation, the broader Preston County area provides habitat and recreational opportunities associated with West Virginia’s forested mountain landscape. The property is located near the town of Rowlesburg, a historic Preston County community situated along the Cheat River. For a buyer seeking West Virginia residential land, recreational acreage, rural property, or a potential homesite in Preston County, this 5.808-acre tract deserves consideration. The combination of county road frontage, preliminary confirmation regarding a potential driveway location, nearby electric service, rolling terrain, and recreational potential gives the property several attributes that can be difficult to find together on a smaller rural tract.
