Welcome to your own personal private 26 acre wooded retreat! Expertly designed by Chris Carman and constructed by Fred A. Wiegand, this truly remarkable property is bound to captivate you from the moment you arrive at its picturesque tree-lined driveway. As you enter the property, you will be greeted by the sun filled clearing which unveils the meticulously maintained fenced pastures, riding ring, horse barn, and the exquisite custom-built 7 bedroom 4.5 bath home all beautifully placed in the serene surroundings. The home ushers you in with soft neutral colors, gleaming hardwood floors, soaring vaulted ceilings, and an abundance of natural light. Truly a grand entrance, you are immediately greeted by a vast open space with high vaulted ceilings, gorgeous exposed wood beams and a stunning floor to ceiling stone fireplace artfully created with local Pennsylvania natural stone in the large open great room.

If that won’t suffice, the 2.700 sq ft horse barn provides two additional garage bays along with a hay loft, tack room, wash bay, and four horse stalls, thoughtfully appointed with individual electric and plumbing hook-ups at each stall. Guide your horses out the rear sliding door with just a few short steps to the two 1.5 acre fenced pastures, which are complete with their own water and electric hook ups, along with the extremely well-designed crushed gravel riding arena. Beyond the pastures and riding ring, enjoy walking trails that lead through wooded areas to a small creek.
