See the mountains, not your neighbors, at this extraordinary new Monroe County gated mountain community, where a total of 99 estate-size homesites are spread over 1,200 acres of gently rolling and beautifully wooded West Virginia countryside near Lewisburg and the renowned Greenbrier resort. With elevations ranging from 2,000 to 3,100 feet above sea level and an average homesite of about 10 acres, every property owner at Walnut Springs Mountain Reserve will enjoy supreme privacy and the expansive long-range Allegheny Mountain views overlooking miles of pristine National Forests and Parks.
