This expansive private retreat offers not only the traditional appeal of a rustic log home, but also a detached garage with an adorable apartment on the second floor and enough outdoor living space to accommodate a plethora of friends and family. Relax on the forty foot front porch with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine while escaping the hustle and bustle of urban life. Inside you will find a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops and wooden custom drawer inserts to allow for the ultimate organization. An open plan into the dining room allows for seamless entertaining even while you are preparing those delicious meals. A wood stove in the spacious family room is charming and functional. The wood stairs lead to a master bedroom featuring unique stone work, two additional bedrooms and a full bath. This home's covered deck is not only large enough to grill and have numerous friends gathered around the table, but also has three levels. A side patio with a wood platform is just waiting for a hot tub! There is an additional storage area under the porch with hot tub wiring already in place. A few feet from the main house you will find an oversized three car garage with plenty of room for cars, riding mowers, bikes, and toys of all kinds. Above the garage is a delightful one bedroom apartment, perfect for extended family members or possible short-term rentals. There is a balcony off the bedroom with views beyond compare. Walk from the back of the home through the yard and into the woods and you will find the Armstrong Valley Creek and a legion of natural plants and wildlife including turkeys and deer. Located about a mile from the Armstrong Valley Winery, ten miles from the Ned Smith Center for Nature and Art, and close to countless other outdoor-related attractions, you truly will not find a more outstanding location only half an hour from downtown Harrisburg. Schedule your private showing today of the rural retreat that is 454 Rutter Road! Check out the 3D virtual tour to walk your way through the house!
