At New River Gorge Preserve, it’s all about nature conservation. Occupying six miles along the top and face of the New River Gorge in Fayetteville, W.Va., the community maintains a strong commitment to keeping the gorge region pristine for residents that will share affection for the land, as well as for generations to come.
A 20-mile network of natural surface trails, exclusive to New River Gorge Preserve residents, are available for year-round use. Follow the paths to panoramic gorge overlooks, forest cathedrals, and once secret waterfalls. Throughout the 1,350-acre property – half of which is part of a conservation program – you’ll also discover sandstone cliffs and fountains that water acres of fern, rhododendron, mountain laurel, and old stands of oak, poplar, ash, and maple.
Private facilities at the Preserve will offer elegant options for dining and social gatherings, recreation and rejuvenation. Owners will have access to a lodge, an indoor pool and hot tub, fitness center, game courts, and a 15-acre Preserve Village where friends and family can relax.
Homes at the Preserve feature architectural elements such as facades of stone, brick and wood to ensure they’ll blend in with the natural surroundings. The location of home sites give residents privacy, as no home will be obtrusive or easily visible from the opposite rim of the gorge.
Size Matters: The community spans 1,350 acres, half of which is protected by a conservation easement. A limited number of home sites will be carved into the landscape, taking care to preserve the maximum amount of tree cover.
