Description
Rare find. Lake community, but no HOA. Newly built custom Mountain-Modern ranch-style home on a stunning 1-acre property walking distance to lake. This 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home features three private master suites with custom tile showers. The gourmet kitchen features an eating island that seats 10, with quartz countertops, soft-close custom cabinetry, pendant & recessed lighting and exceptional stainless-steel appliances.
At 1837 sq ft, this stunning design feels so much larger. It features a large, vaulted-ceiling great room with a stunning stone fireplace, and walls of Andersen windows that flood the space with natural light from both the front and rear of the home. Step out from the great room onto a wrap-around, custom stamped concrete patio with built in fire pit. Each room enjoys super high-efficiency mini-split units (efficient to -20 degrees!), which will help keep operating costs way down. An attached 20x20 garage offers lots of space for autos, atv's and storage. Just a short stroll from a private lake, beach, playground, pavilion, and kayak racks. Penn Forest Township is STR friendly, so act now before the spring buying season brings multiple offers. The seller has a working relationship with a PA licensed builder and realtor. If you prefer a different lot, location, or wish to customize the home, the same trusted team can build your home. Contact the listing agent now to get started or to refer a client. Located near historic Jim Thorpe, Penn's Peak music venue, Big Boulder & Jack Frost Ski Resorts, Pocono Raceway, Lehigh Gorge State Park, Hickory Run State Park, Pocono Whitewater, etc. Easy access to PA-476 via PA-903.
