An Equestrian Estate Built as Two Homes in One
$950,000
Lewisburg sits in Greenbrier County, in the mountains of southeastern West Virginia — 6.7 fenced acres of equestrian farmstead land on Muddy Creek Mountain, with long-range views in nearly every direction.
Known as the Lazy S Estate, this custom 2009 home was built around a genuinely rare idea: two complete, mirror-image living spaces — each with its own kitchen, primary ensuite, laundry, sunroom, and two-car garage — joined in the middle by a shared great room with an exquisite main kitchen, all designed with minimal steps for easy multigenerational living. A walkout lower level adds a family room, two more bedrooms, and a big indoor workshop. But this is as much a horse property as a house: a 36-by-36 three-stall barn, built in 2013 with automatic freeze-proof waterers, a tack room, and a wash rack, anchors three fenced and cross-fenced pastures, with an equipment barn and RV shed rounding out the outbuildings. 4 bd / 4 ba, 4,063 sq ft, built 2009, on 6.7 acres.

Homestead Potential
Water & Infrastructure
The water setup here is built for a working horse farm. The property runs on a private well with a filter and softener system for the house, and the barn has its own Nelson automatic individual watering system with freeze protection — so your horses have fresh, unfrozen water year-round without hauling buckets through a mountain winter. Two separate septic systems serve the two-household layout. Confirm the well's output and both septics as part of due diligence, but the water infrastructure here is unusually complete for livestock and multigenerational living alike.
Crop & Income Potential
This is turnkey horse ground. Three separate pastures adjoin the barn, already fenced and cross-fenced with gates in the right places, so you can rotate grazing or separate animals from day one — the level fields with a gentle roll are exactly what you want for horses. At 6.7 acres it's a manageable, high-quality equestrian farmstead rather than a big commercial operation, with room besides for a garden, a few other animals, and some hay. The owners built this place for horses, and it shows in every fence line and gate.
Sustainability
This estate was built to last and to keep running. A recently serviced Generac propane generator keeps the power on through mountain storms, a wood-burning stove on the lower level heats with what the land provides, and the poured-concrete foundation and quality 2009 construction mean the bones are excellent. The two-household design is its own kind of resilience — room for family, guests, or rental income under one roof — and there's space to add solar or expand the garden on the sunny, well-drained slope. Starlink is an easy option if you want faster internet than the DSL up here. It's a property designed to be self-sufficient and genuinely comfortable in equal measure.
The Boundaries
A property this specific rewards careful due diligence, and much of it is already in your favor. An existing survey (the Lazy S Estate) is a head start — confirm it's current and that the 6.7-acre lines and pasture fencing match it. Have both septic systems and the well inspected, since two households mean two of everything to verify, and ask for the Generac's service history. A couple of honest small notes straight from the listing: the living-room gas fireplace doesn't work well (the lower-level wood stove is the real heat source), and the balcony's Trex deck joists have been reinforced — both worth a look during inspection. None of it is a red flag on a home this well cared for; it's just the homework that matches the quality of the place.
Beyond the Property Line
Local Flavor & Small-Town Character
Lewisburg is one of the most beloved small towns in West Virginia — a walkable National Register historic district full of galleries, farm-to-table restaurants, a famous independent bookstore, and a genuine Carnegie Hall, regularly named one of America's coolest small towns. You're minutes from all of it, yet tucked away on your own mountain. The Greenbrier resort in nearby White Sulphur Springs, an Amtrak station, and I-64 keep you connected, while the surrounding Greenbrier Valley stays deeply rural and green.
Agricultural Resources & Neighbor Networks
West Virginia University Extension keeps a Greenbrier County office, and its programs — soil testing, pasture and forage management, equine and livestock guidance, and Master Gardener training — are exactly what a horse farm and mountain garden want close by. The Greenbrier Valley has a strong agricultural tradition and one of the state's best farmers' markets right in Lewisburg, plus large-animal vets, farriers, and feed and tack suppliers all within easy reach. For an equestrian property, the support network here runs genuinely deep.
Outdoor Recreation & Natural Surroundings
This corner of West Virginia is an outdoor paradise. The Greenbrier River Trail — one of the country's premier rail-trails — offers seventy-plus miles of biking, riding, and walking along the river, and the Monongahela National Forest, with its hiking, climbing, and trout streams, is close by. Lewisburg's own trails, the state parks of the Greenbrier Valley, and the nearby New River Gorge National Park fill out a calendar of hiking, paddling, and riding. With three pastures and mountain views at home plus all of this nearby, the outdoor life here is endless.
