About This Home

Welcome to a peaceful setting on nearly 10 acres with a contemporary interior, a pond, and an in-ground pool. Set down a long private drive & close to Lake Wilhelm & Shenango Reservoir and an easy 67 miles from Pittsburgh. The home includes a main-level bedroom suite, family room with wet bar, and a kitchen with high-end stainless steel appliances. The appeal continues with the first-floor office, spacious game/theater room, large secondary bedrooms, and luxe master retreat with a jetted tub, walk-in shower, and bidet. Built by a premier custom builder, the home offers a second-floor laundry room, a pool house, new HVAC, a new roof, and a natural gas well that provides free heat for the home, pool, and two large heated garages. The pond is stocked with a variety of species; a pistol shooting range and existing tree stands add to the feel of your own private game preserve. Other features include a well, a water softener, a fenced garden, and extensive drainage improvements.
