This stately, unique federal-style farmhouse, built in 1812, sits upon a hill overlooking Montour Ridge, providing beautiful views out of every window. Tons of privacy on 3.5 well-manicured acres. Incredible sunrise and sunset views, and an impressive panoramic night-time sky, you feel like you're in big sky country in the middle of Pennsylvania. The house boasts many original features, including wide-plank flooring, original moldings, multiple fireplaces, and a summer kitchen, and has been meticulously and lovingly restored throughout, exposing original brick walls and wood beams. These rustic origins have been tastefully combined with all the modern conveniences of contemporary living to create a home that is as practical as it is gorgeous. High-speed internet. Call Doug 570-713-9961 With high-speed internet access and a private office, working from home is a breeze. The open floor plan in the kitchen/dining room area, as well as the spacious back patio, make this large home ideal for family life and/or entertaining. Located less than 10 minutes from historic Lewisburg, less than 15 minutes to Danville, and with easy access to route 80, it's easy to explore the area's many attractions.
In addition to the main house, the recently restored summer kitchen (with an additional, original wood burning fireplace) provides a unique space full of historic charm and modern convenience that can be used as additional living space, for entertaining or as a separate workspace or studio. The new three car garage (with its new driveway) provides easy, covered access to the house and plenty of storage, including an enormous, full-sized second floor that could be converted into additional work or living space.
The grounds have been carefully landscaped with mature, low-maintenance flowering shrubs and trees that anchor the house, enhance the outdoor space and provide year-round color. Throughout the home, the electric system, communications system, plumbing and roof have all been updated and central air has been added as well.
If a large, beautiful, historic home, painstakingly restored for modern living, enjoying sunrises and sunsets, and gazing at the stars and perfect for entertaining family and friends or working from home is what you're looking for, this home is for you. With plenty of privacy and unobstructed views of the countryside, mountain ridge and the changing seasons beyond, come see a piece of central Pennsylvania history and make it your home getaway retreat.
