One Unique Recovery House, Inc. (OUR House) Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

One Unique Recovery House, Inc. is a men's sober living home on Meadow Street in Buckhannon, West Virginia, the seat of Upshur County. Six men live here at $400 a month under Level 2 certification from the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residences.

A Six-Bed Men's Recovery Home in Buckhannon

Six beds in a county of about twenty-four thousand people is a meaningful share of the certified capacity in central West Virginia. A house this small runs on the men in it: there is no crowd, no anonymity and no ambiguity about who is carrying their share. Meadow Street sits in Buckhannon's residential grid within walking distance of the downtown core.

What the Monthly Fee Covers

The charge is $400 a month, published as including program fees, utilities and internet. Bundling utilities matters in a rural county where a resident cannot easily absorb a winter heating bill on top of rent. Beds are also eligible for Recovery Housing Program vouchers covering the first forty-five days for new low-income residents.

Level 2 Certification in Rural Recovery Housing

Level 2 describes monitored recovery housing with structured expectations and clinical care from outside providers. Certification requires written fee and rule disclosure before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, adherence to a published code of ethics, and complaints reviewed outside the household. Where a prospective resident cannot easily visit first, the certification record is the verifiable part.

Buckhannon, Upshur County and Central West Virginia

Buckhannon is the county seat and the home of West Virginia Wesleyan College, sitting on the Buckhannon River between Clarksburg and Elkins on the US 33 and Route 20 corridors. It holds the county courthouse, St. Joseph's Hospital and the county's employment. Certified recovery housing is scarce across the central mountain counties, so a small house in the county seat draws from a catchment reaching into Lewis, Barbour and Randolph counties.
