Description
Rare opportunity to own a 1930's cabin situated on two acres in Green Bank, with only a short distance to Snowshoe Mountain Resort (16 mi), Cass Scenic Railroad State Park (7.1 mi), and Green Bank Observatory and Science Center (1.7 mi.). Green Bank, WV is located within the National Radio Quiet Zone, is recognized as an area of low electromagnetic emissions and cellular radiation, and the Green Bank Observatory is home to the largest steerable radio telescope in the world. It is at the Green Bank Observatory, in 1961, that the Drake Equation was presented, which was developed to provide an estimate of the total number of detectable extraterrestrial civilizations in the Milky Way galaxy (per Wikipedia). The acreage includes beautiful creek frontage and plenty of gardening space. The home is in need of extensive repair and will not qualify under FHA, USDA or VA financing. Rehab loans or cash are ideal. No seller financing available. Appointments are required to visit the property. Do not enter the property without a Licensed WV Realtor.
