319 Mount View Drive, Charleston, WV 25314

Views that stop you in your tracks. Perched high above Charleston, this cedar-shake home looks out over the city skyline and the Kanawha River below. The main level holds a living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and classic mantel, a separate dining room, and a kitchen with solid oak cabinetry, gas cooking, and hardwood floors.

Upstairs, four bedrooms and a full bath sit under dormer windows and sloped ceilings full of character. The lower level brings the warmth: a knotty pine family room with paneled walls and ceiling, a second brick fireplace, a built-in window seat, and a second full bath.

Outside is where this one earns its keep. The covered front porch was made for rocking chairs and morning coffee, while the expansive rear deck - part covered, part open - offers room to entertain and long views over the valley. Attached garage and mature landscaping round it out. Homes with this outlook rarely come available, so come see it while you can.
