About this House
Discover approximately 215+/- secluded acres in Cairo, West Virginia, offering exceptional privacy, abundant wildlife, two cabins, and miles of recreational possibilities. Located in Ritchie County, the property comprises nine parcels and is approximately 70% wooded and 30% pasture. It offers an appealing combination of mature woods, open fields, a year-round stream, established trails, and additional potential building sites.
The land is well suited for hunting, hiking, ATV and dirt-bike riding, horseback riding, farming, gardening, homesteading, and livestock. Deer, turkey, squirrel, and rabbit are regularly seen on the property. Eight hunting stands—both elevated and ground-level—are included. The land has been privately managed, with no public hunting permitted. Portions of the property were selectively timbered approximately 12 years ago.
The main cabin, built in 2000, offers approximately 640 square feet with two bedrooms and one bathroom. It has electricity, a wood-burning stove, refrigerator, cooking stove, spring-fed water, toilet, and septic system. AT&T cell service and DIRECTV currently used. The cabin roof was reshingled in 2026.
A second, partially completed cabin is located approximately one-half mile from the main cabin. Its exterior is approximately 80% complete, while the interior is ready for the new owner to finish according to their needs. Electricity is available at the site, and the second cabin has a well.
The property is accessed from County Route 8/1, with the final approximately one mile consisting of a gravel road. Four-wheel drive or a higher-clearance vehicle is recommended. The county is scheduled to regravel the road in 2026.
Conveniently located approximately 10 miles from Ellenboro, 40 minutes from Parkersburg, and within reach of North Bend State Park. The closest commercial airport is Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Airport in Wood County.
Acreage is approximately 215 acres and is based on county tax records and tax maps. Tax-map boundaries are approximate and are not a survey. Sellers make no representation or warranty regarding exact acreage, boundary locations, or property-line markings. Buyer is responsible for independently verifying acreage, boundaries, access, utilities, water and septic systems and all other facts material to the buyer.
GPS directions are unreliable in this rural area, so detailed directions will be provided. The property is shown by appointment only; please do not enter without permission.
