A long gravel driveway through the wilderness and over your bridge leads to your hidden paradise, out of view from the road! Surrounded by woods this private oasis is set up so that you can live off the grid in luxury. There is a generator hook-up in the garage for your electrical power should the grid go down along with a working wood-burning fireplace in the Great Room to keep you warm. Wildlife is abundant in this peaceful and serene getaway! Enjoy the deer, rabbits, turkeys, foxes, hawks and all kinds of birds and sounds of nature. It is very quiet and private here. From this tranquil clearing in the wilderness you can relax and enjoy the big, open night sky as if you were in a planetarium. There is plenty of room for parking and entertaining guests. The beautiful log home is like something out of a magazine with it s wrap-around porch, deck and stone chimney. The house is roomy and open with a loft overlooking the great room. The great room has a two-story vaulted ceiling and the large dining room has a bay window with a grand view! The over-sized two car garage is connected to the house through an enclosed breezeway. The house is decked out with many extras including built-in book cases, a garbage disposal, several ceiling fans, newer refrigerator, newer glass top range, recently replaced central air conditioning system, plenty of storage space and a huge basement. The master bedroom is conveniently located on the first floor and has nice double closets and a master bath. Maintaining the property is easy with the Kubota tractor the sellers are willing to leave you. It has a large cutting deck for mowing and as well as a powerful snow blower attachment to clear the driveway and parking areas of deep wet snow. This property would be great for preppers, homesteaders, hunters, trappers, gardeners, nature lovers, equestrian types and more! There is plenty of wide open space for greenhouses, an orchard, a large garden or farmette, horses, chickens and other farm animals here! The property has its own well and septic system and the tap water is delicious it tastes like the spring water you buy! This property may be off the beaten path and out of the way deep in the country but it is easy to get to Kutztown, Reading, Allentown and major roads including 222 and I -78.
