Project Overview
A planned hospitality development concept on inherited rural land near Charleston, West Virginia, exploring treehouse retreat programming, site strategy, and hospitality-focused land use designed to transform family acreage into a revenue-generating destination.
The Opportunity
What the land presented
A family inherited 12 acres of wooded hillside land with no clear plan for its future use. Some family members considered selling, others envisioned a private retreat, and another path involved creating a hospitality concept that could preserve the land's character while generating income. The opportunity required feasibility analysis, market evaluation, and development strategy before any path could be pursued responsibly.

Our Approach
How we structured the work
Strategic Property Solutions was engaged during concept development to assess the land's highest and best use, evaluate the treehouse retreat concept against hospitality demand and regulatory considerations, and shape a phased development strategy that balances family legacy goals with commercial viability.
Projected Outcome
Where the project stands
The project is currently in concept development, with site feasibility under review, hospitality market analysis in progress, and the preliminary retreat program taking shape. Development phasing, budget refinement, and projected returns will be published as the concept advances toward formal planning and approvals.
