Property Description

Welcome to the picturesque countryside of eastern PA. On the surface you'll find a rare chance to own a beautifully crafted home on a river. This property has been meticulously upgraded with a no-expense-spared approach to ensure unparalleled protection from moisture & flooding allowing it to coexist seamlessly with its riverfront setting and adjacent pond. The front yard has been re-engineered to direct rainwater safely away and the residence itself is elevated approximately two feet above the surrounding landscape. The home is divided from the river by a double-sided steel reinforced concrete barrier spanning 100ft by 7ft wide with an in-ground depth exceeding the bottom of the river by several feet ensuring the final word against moisture penetration. The meticulously designed bridge offers a graceful approach to the home's entrance, while concrete shoulders maintain uninterrupted water flow beneath. The property features 14+ Acres in the Rural Agricultural Zoning district between 3 separately accessible parcels. There's a variety of ways the parcels can be utilized either together or separately. Lot-1 & 2 for example add up to just over 10 acres (Act 319 candidate) while lot-3 is 3.79 acres with its own road frontage and an additional 4th strip of land nearby. The configuration makes possibilities for a variety of completely independent uses, including separate residences, business uses, even a road-side farmers market on that 4th strip, subject to township approval.
