Welcome to Rise and Shine Farm, an exceptional 93.28-acre country estate and working farm tucked away in the beautiful Wolf Creek area of Monroe County, West Virginia. Offering an appealing combination of privacy, productive farmland, comfortable modern living, abundant wildlife, and extensive farm infrastructure, this property embodies the best of Almost Heaven, West Virginia. Located at the end of state-maintained Skaggs Road, Rise and Shine Farm enjoys a remarkable degree of seclusion and serenity. The property is the only full-time residence on Skaggs Road, providing the kind of privacy that is increasingly difficult to find. The Skaggs Road farm is conveniently located off Johnson's Crossroads, just minutes from the Wolf Creek Post Office.
while the historic communities of Union, the county seat of Monroe County, and Alderson are each approximately a 20-minute drive away.
Monroe County is renowned for its rolling farmland, mountain scenery, quiet country roads, rich agricultural heritage, and relaxed rural lifestyle. Adding to the property's appeal, Monroe County currently has no county-wide zoning, providing flexibility for a variety of agricultural and rural uses.
THE FARMHOUSE
At the heart of the property is an impressive 4,713-square-foot modern farmhouse, circa 2005, thoughtfully designed for comfortable everyday living, entertaining, and enjoying the surrounding mountain countryside.
The exceptionally spacious kitchen is one of the home's focal points and features high-end stainless-steel appliances, a Viking six-burner gas range, a Bosch dishwasher, a large center island, tile flooring, and abundant pantry and storage space. Plenty of room makes it easy to prepare family meals, entertain guests, or preserve the bounty from the farm and garden.
The adjoining Great Room offers a warm and inviting gathering space highlighted by wide-plank flooring and a handsome stone propane fireplace. Large windows take full advantage of the property's impressive long-range views, including a commanding view toward mighty Keeney Mountain, the highest point in neighboring Summers County.
The main level includes two bedrooms, a full bathroom with laundry facilities, the Great Room, and the oversized kitchen and dining areas.
Multiple exterior doors provide convenient access to the home's porches and decks on both levels, creating excellent outdoor living spaces for morning coffee, family gatherings, grilling, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the peace and quiet of the surrounding West Virginia mountains.
PRIVATE GUEST / IN-LAW APARTMENT
Situated above the attached two-car garage is a private guest or in-law apartment offering excellent flexibility for extended family, overnight guests, a caretaker, or private home-office accommodations.
The apartment features its own exterior entrance, separate HVAC system, kitchenette, full bathroom, and backup generator, allowing it to function independently from the main residence when desired.
A WELL-IMPROVED AND PRODUCTIVE FARM
Rise and Shine Farm has been thoughtfully developed with the infrastructure necessary for livestock, hay production, gardening, horses, and general agricultural use.
The farm currently supports substantial hay production, horses, chickens, and gardening, and it was previously operated as a cow-and-calf farm. Its combination of open agricultural ground, water resources, fencing, barns, and rural privacy provides numerous possibilities for the next owner.
Farm and residential improvements include:
Extensive fencing and gates
Cattle guard crossings
Well-maintained gravel driveway
Two water wells
Underground utilities
Multiple farm hydrants
Multiple Mirafount livestock watering fountains
A newly developed spring with a large reservoir tank
Two barns
Electric and water service to one barn
Two backup propane generators
Brand-new 2025 HVAC heat pumps serving both the farmhouse and guest apartment
Excellent cellular service
Excellent high-speed internet
The extensive water system is especially valuable for agricultural use, livestock management, gardening, and continuing the property as a productive farm.
WILDLIFE, RECREATION & WEST VIRGINIA COUNTRY LIVING
Beyond its agricultural attributes, Rise and Shine Farm offers outstanding opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. The property's 93.28 acres offer habitat for abundant West Virginia wildlife, making it an excellent setting for wildlife observation, hunting, hiking, exploring, horseback riding, ATV riding, or simply enjoying the solitude of your own private acreage.
From sunrise over the farm to evenings overlooking the distant mountains, this property offers the peaceful setting and slower pace of life that make rural Monroe County such a special place to call home.
Whether envisioned as a working farm, horse property, family homestead, recreational retreat, country estate, or combination of all five, Rise and Shine Farm offers a rare collection of land, improvements, infrastructure, privacy, and accessibility.
