About This Home
Stunning rare 8-acre sanctuary next to Evansburg State Park with 3300 acres and just minutes from major amenities, yet worlds away in peace and privacy. This extraordinary off-grid-ready property offers a harmonious blend of nature, sustainability, and thoughtful design. Horse stalls, a detached office building, and subdivision potential truly set this property apart. At the heart of the property is a spacious 2-level home with over 3,500 square feet of living space, seamlessly combining rustic charm and modern convenience. The original 900 sq ft pine-paneled cottage, rich with character, was beautifully expanded in 2012 with a 2,400 sq ft custom-built addition featuring 2x6 construction, spray foam insulation, Red Oak hardwood floors, 9-foot ceilings, and oversized double-hung, double-glazed windows to flood the home with natural light. Enjoy flexible living spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A sun-drenched main-level living room opens up to serene forest views — the perfect spot for morning coffee. Upstairs, a spacious entertainment room with a wet bar and pool table offers the ultimate game-night experience. The home boasts five spacious bedrooms, ceiling fans throughout, insulated floors, and energy-efficient upgrades including solar panels, a tankless combination water heater, baseboard hot water heating, and central air conditioning—keeping utility costs low and comfort high all year round. Off-grid systems including a well, septic, and net-positive solar capacity empowers self-sufficient living. Step outside and immerse yourself in the surrounding natural beauty. Watch foxes, herons, red-tailed hawks, and deer roam through the mature woodlands, magnolia trees, flowering shrubs, and thoughtfully planted perennial gardens — including iris, peonies, roses and in the spring, 60 feet of blooming daffodils. Equestrian enthusiasts or hobby farmers will appreciate the two horse stalls in the detached garage, which also features a large upper-level storage area. For remote work or creative projects, a detached 16'x30' outbuilding serves as a fully functional office or studio space. An incredible added value: the 3-acre subdivision has already received conditional township approval, offering the opportunity for resale, a future build, or expanded living options. All this just a short drive from Philadelphia and within reach of the Jersey shore/New York City (2 hours) and Washington D.C. (3 hours). This is not just a home — it's a lifestyle. Come experience the serenity, sustainability, and potential to fulfill your aspirations. Schedule your private tour today. The Seller requires all offers to purchase this property to include a complete and signed "Buyer's Financial Statement" (BFI) and for all "NON-CASH" offers a Mortgage Pre-approval Letter from a reputable Mortgage Company.
