Welcome to Hedgesville, West Virginia
Hedgesville is probably one of the only actual "small towns" of the Eastern Panhandle. The main part of town consists of a handful of local shops, a convenience store, post office, fire station, a small strip mall and one stoplight. Hedgesville spreads out into more wooded areas with one main road going through the center of town. The roadway is major Route 9 which will take you along to Berkeley Springs. Check out the town site for more info.
Hedgesville is rather rural and no bus services run in the town. Ride Share drivers are your best means of travel other than your own vehicle. D.C. is about 85 miles South West, Winchester, VA is about 30 miles North, Hagerstown, MD is about 20 miles East, and the PA state line is only twenty seven minutes away.

What's it Like to Live in Hedgesville
A Quick Look
Hedgesville is definitely a slower paced town in the Eastern Panhandle. You have some shopping in the area, but not as much as other areas nearby. The walkability for the town is low if you are not in the actual main portion of the town. There are no sidewalks, but everything is rather close together. There is tons of nature jam packed throughout the area and a bit of driving is required to get to your destination.
Unexpected Charm
The town is perfect if you love being out in "the woods" but still a short car ride away from civilization. Your home in the hills could be a short jaunt away from a major roadway to take you to a major town.
Home Availablility
Hedgesville offers mostly detached single family homes. There are some attached homes/town houses in the area. There are a few pockets of more expensive neighborhoods, but they are few and far between. The town has the potential for home prices to range from the millions to a mere $65,000. The majority of homes offer at least an acre of land.
