Description

Rare opportunity to create your dream home in the center of 3.9 acres with level pasture areas front and rear for horses and farm animals (verify use with Twp). Very private setting on a lofty knoll far-off roadway with farmland vista. The home needs TLC and is priced comparable to 3.9-acre building lots, however, the improvement (house, well, septic, driveway) allows Conventional financing, unlike raw land, which is nearly impossible to finance, making this your chance to fulfill your vision. The...Rare opportunity to create your dream home in the center of 3.9 acres with level pasture areas front and rear for horses and farm animals (verify use with Twp). Very private setting on a lofty knoll far-off roadway with farmland vista. The home needs TLC and is priced comparable to 3.9-acre building lots, however, the improvement (house, well, septic, driveway) allows Conventional financing, unlike raw land, which is nearly impossible to finance, making this your chance to fulfill your vision. The low taxes make this home even more affordable ($2,839yr). AS-IS condition, conventional financing, or cash purchase only, offer deadline 5/19 @ 4 pm. Showcased in a nature lovers paradise with seemingly endless hiking trails, hunting, and fishing. Hay Creek, a Class A Trout stream (native fish) across the street. Access to the 140-mile Horseshoe trail originating in Valley Forge is also within walking distance and leads to the 1,000-acre Birdsboro Preserve, and links to the Appalachian Trail, plus the State Game Lands are just across the street, adjoining French Creek State Park. Options abound with this private setting in sought-after Twin Valley SD, you may want to just spruce up the cottage and live happily ever after or add a dream addition as time and money permit, or build your dream home. The tree-lined driveway winds back approximately 300 ft, and unlike raw land, the driveway permit is already in place, it would look like new with a few loads of crushed stone on the seasoned base (non-SUV/Pickups are advised to park in the lower field adjoining the driveway). The lot is a whopping 625 feet deep and 313 feet wide, with a level field in the front and a second field behind the home - natural horse paddocks…, while a nifty knoll in the center of the lot creates a fantastic location for the home. Plenty of room for a huge garden, or take advantage of the abundant local produce stands, including free-range and organic. The home was built by an artisan who loved the private setting and lofty views. A huge curved 3-unit chicken coop is located at the rear of the front field, behind the white pickup, DO NOT OPEN OR ENTER the chicken coop due to safety hazards and risk of the chickens getting loose. Hay Creek Rd becomes Twin Valley Rd and leads to nearby Elverson Crossing Walmart Supercenter, this home’s location offers quick access to Rt.82, Rt.10, Reading, and Exton/Downingtown/King of Prussia via Morgantown PATP interchange. Showings start Friday 10/14, offer deadline Wednesday 5/19 @ 4 pm. Wood Stove, Refrigerator, Window A/C Excluded. The inclusion of the carport is negotiable.
