About this home
Welcome to a place where timeless beauty, thoughtful design, and the wonders of nature come together to create something truly special. Tucked away at the end of a winding driveway with mature apple trees, this extraordinary 173 acre estate invites you into a world of peace, privacy, and refined country living. Surrounded by the lush canopy of Central Appalachian oak pine forest, the property offers gently rolling hills, wildflower meadows, and streams are pristine, including the Conewago Creek, that create a landscape as enchanting as it is expansive. Explore your own apple orchard, hike through woodlands filled with chestnut oak, hickory, and red maple, and enjoy the sights and sounds of native wildlife including deer, wild turkeys, red-tailed hawks, foxes, and woodpeckers. Whether you’re on foot or horseback, the trails offer year-round enjoyment. Protected by a conservation easement, this property is as enduring as it is beautiful. At its center is a well-maintained home designed to bring the outdoors in and elevate everyday living. Offering three bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, the home blends comfort and craftsmanship throughout. A sun drenched vaulted sunroom with panoramic views and hardwood floors welcomes you with warmth. The adjacent kitchen combines rustic charm and modern convenience, featuring pine inset cabinetry, glass front displays, engineered hardwood floors, and a walk in pantry with laundry, utility sink, and ample storage. The home’s layout supports both gathering and relaxation. The dining room glows with natural light, while the spacious family room features vaulted ceilings, a wood burning fireplace and heatilator, plush carpeting, and sliding doors that lead to a large deck with 13 foot retractable awning, perfect for enjoying nature year round. A dedicated home office offers custom built hickory cabinetry and recessed lighting, ideal for remote work or focused creative time. The main level primary suite includes crown molding, a cedar lined walk in closet, and an inviting ensuite with a walk in pebble stone shower, marble flooring, and warm, organic finishes that reflect the home’s natural surroundings. The daylight walkout lower level offers additional versatility with two more bedrooms, a luxurious full bath, a second office or flex space, and a tile floored recreation room with a wood burning stove. Outdoor living features include a covered patio, expansive deck, a three-car garage with overhead storage, and a private architectural feature: a watchtower above the garage offering panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, an ideal spot for observing nature or stargazing. Complementing these features are owned solar panels and geothermal heating and cooling, providing energy efficiency and sustainability.
