Beautiful undeveloped high-elevation mountain property in Sullivan County, surrounded on three sides by the Loyalsock State Forest and just a stone’s throw from World’s End State Park. Here is a rare opportunity to own a 55.2-acre parcel (978 feet x 2227feet). Additional 114,000+ acres of State property in your backyard will ensure you will never have neighbors! It is mostly wooded with a mixture of hardwood. We have seen turkeys and deer while walking the land. Located about 3 hours from Philadelphia and 3.5 hours from New York City, this parcel provides seclusion and access to the wilderness, yet is only 17 minutes from Dushore and 18 minutes from Forksville. Access is from Rock Run Road via gated Irish Settlement Road or via DCNR right of way over Old Wood Road. Build your dream home or cabin to enjoy the peacefulness of central PA. Property Features: -Low cost: Taxes $1000 +$25 for DCNR road access. – Great hunting area with black bears, turkeys, deers, grouses. – Suitable for construction of a cabin. – Mineral rights do not convey. Situation regarding the mineral rights. -1894 The mineral rights were severed for the land according to the original title. Our great uncle purchased this property at a tax sale (seated land) in 1935, and insisted that he owned the mineral rights but had lost the paper to prove it. Our title search revealed the mineral (including gas) rights were severed in a 1894 Deed. We do not know whether anyone can prove ownership of the mineral rights, and believe the mineral rights are probably splintered and possibly lost. This property is at a high elevation (top of the mountain ridge), surrounded on three sides by State Forest lands, and far from any current gas wells – we think this makes future drilling unlikely.
