Ten and a half acres doesn’t sound like much until you’re standing on it, out of sight of the road, hearing nothing but wind in the timber. This 10.5-acre tract on Pickhandle Hill Road sits in Monongalia County just outside Morgantown, and it pulls off something most land can’t: it feels a long way from everything while being almost no distance at all. Turn off, roll down the gravel, and the timber closes in behind you. There’s no gate code to the quiet here. It starts about thirty yards in. The tract is mostly wooded, a mix of timber and thick undergrowth that does the privacy work for you. Older trees overhead, cover at eye level, and the kind of screening that means a neighbor could be closer than you think and you’d never know it. Wildlife works ground like this for exactly the same reason you want it. The terrain rolls. Gentle slopes, small ridges, and enough flatter pockets that you’ve got real choices. A camp back in the trees. A stand on the high side where you can see something coming. A spot cleared just wide enough to see the sky at night. Hiking, hunting, camping, a weekend retreat, or simply a place that belongs to you and nobody else. This ground will take whatever you bring to it and still look like it always did. Access is gravel road frontage, which means dependable, year-round, in a regular vehicle. No hiking in from a neighbor’s field. No winter guesswork. You can be on your land in February with the truck still clean. And then there’s where it is. Morgantown is right there, with Fairmont a short run down the road groceries, restaurants, schools, medical care, and everything a real city has, minutes from a place that feels like nowhere. Fairmont is approximately 25 miles, Clarksburg around 45, and Pittsburgh roughly 75 miles up the road. You can be in your own timber in the morning and make dinner reservations that night. For buyers looking for Monongalia County land, West Virginia recreational property, wooded acreage near Morgantown, or a private rural retreat with genuine road access, this tract does a lot of work in a small package. Timber, rolling terrain, gravel frontage, and a city fifteen minutes away.
