Nestled at the very end of a private cul-de-sac within Whispering Woods development in desirable Cheat Lake area of Morgantown, WV; 5 Squirrel Lane is truly one of Morgantown’s best kept secrets. Situated on 2.55 secluded acres with approximately one acre wooded, this elegant retreat offers the rare combination of peace, privacy, and convenience — tucked away from the hustle and bustle, yet just minutes to the interstate, Cheat Lake, restaurants, shopping, and all the summer fun the area has to offer. Designed for both entertaining and everyday comfort, this expansive 4, possible 5-bedroom home features two primary suites, including one conveniently located on the main level, along with first-floor laundry for easy living. The true showpiece of the home is the stunning 23x19 enclosed three-season room addition — a space that feels like a luxury mountain lodge getaway. Anchored by a breathtaking stone fireplace, this incredible gathering space also includes a built-in stainless steel grill and griddle, creating the ultimate setting for hosting gatherings or simply unwinding to the peaceful sound of crickets on a quiet West Virginia evening. Inside, the oversized kitchen was built for both function and connection, featuring an abundance of cabinetry, expansive counter space, a center island, and a butler’s pantry. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly into the main living room where a second stone fireplace creates a warm and inviting focal point. The first floor also offers a flexible formal dining area that could easily serve as a library, office, or additional sitting room. Entering in the front door you will immediately notice the new hardwood floors and 10' ceilings! Upstairs, the second primary suite provides a private retreat complete with WIC and a spacious ensuite bath with double vanities. Two additional sizable bedrooms and a large bonus room or possible fifth bedroom/game room complete the upper level. The unfinished basement with 8-foot ceilings offers endless possibilities for future expansion while already providing excellent workshop and storage space. Additional highlights include a 2-car garage with dedicated storage room, freshly landscaped grounds, Trex decking, electric pet fencing with WiFi-connected dog doors, and an abundance of parking for guests. Whether you are entertaining a crowd or enjoying peaceful evenings by the fire after a long workday, 5 Squirrel Lane offers the kind of sanctuary that rarely becomes available in Cheat Lake.
