Even though I currently have no intention of buying a house, I love to browse the internet for houses for sale in West Virginia. The homes I feature here are ones that I've come across that I truly love.
1684 Wiltshire Blvd, Huntington, WV 25701
This lovely Cape Cod-inspired house is located in the Southeast Hills section of Huntington and has four bedrooms, two full baths, and a detached garage. It does have a fenced in backyard for those with small children and/or pets. The yard runs a bit on the small side, which is always nice for those not wanting to deal with the time it would take to maintain a larger yard.
I like this house for many reasons, but the two that rank the highest is its location and its size. Most of the homes built in this area were built in the late 1930s-1950s. These houses may seem small from the sidewalk, but when you walk in there's quite a bit more space than you realize. I think this home in particular could satisfy a majority of home shoppers. It's big enough for young families to grow into and it's also small enough for the recently retired looking for something to downsize into.
Location is also very important with this house. It's located so wonderfully that it's less than a 10 minute drive to the nearest elementary/middle/high school, grocery store, hospital, I-64 access, and so much more. The neighborhood is extremely safe and is the type where the kids play together after school and where you actually know your neighbors.
Did I also mention that the house has a lot of updates? That includes everything from new kitchen floors to new storm windows to update bathrooms and kitchen appliances.
This house has a lot going for it, and at the very decent price of $104,500 it's going to go pretty fast.
