11.3 Acres with Multiple Build Sites, Appalachian Views & Wayne National Forest Access in Lawrence County
If you've been searching for the perfect place to build your dream home in rural Ohio, this 11.3-acre parcel on De Loss Creek Road offers everything you need. The property features multiple cleared and semi-cleared areas that make excellent building sites, each offering different advantages in terms of views, privacy, and access. Whether you envision a traditional farmhouse, a modern country estate, or a cozy cabin retreat, this land provides the canvas for your vision.
The gently rolling terrain creates natural building pads with excellent drainage characteristics essential for home construction. Several elevated spots on the property would allow for a home with scenic views of the surrounding Appalachian hillsides. The road frontage on Kitts Hill-Vesuvius Road provides straightforward access for construction equipment and future daily commutes, while the acreage ensures neighbors remain at a comfortable distance.
Recent timber harvesting has opened up the land, allowing more sunlight to reach potential building sites and reducing the initial clearing costs typically associated with wooded properties. The young regenerating forest around the perimeter will mature over time, providing natural screening and windbreaks while adding long-term value. A well-maintained trail system winds through the property, perfect for future walking paths or ATV access.
The location strikes an ideal balance between seclusion and convenience. Within 45 minutes you can reach Huntington, West Virginia with its full range of shopping, dining, and entertainment. Lake Vesuvius Recreation Area and Wayne National Forest are even closer — offering hiking, fishing, and horseback riding practically at your doorstep.
