The home is nestled on 12+ acres in the Twin Valley School District and was constructed by famed Pennsylvania builder Levi Focht in 1908. Over the last 27 years, the current owners have lovingly updated and expanded the home to over 3,400 square feet. There is an abundant mix of hardwood floors and original wood beams throughout the house. The spacious living room has hardwood floors, chair rail, and wood beams. The adjacent 17' x 17' formal dining room is accented with 3/4" solid oak paneling. The family room`s center piece is the all brick wood burning fireplace. The perfect place to entertain or just relax by the crackling fire on those cold winter nights! The 35 handle custom cherry kitchen was fully remodeled 6 years ago and features a beautiful 6' x 4' granite island, granite countertops, tile back splash, all modern stainless steel appliances and a corner pellet stove. The enclosed wrap around porch with dry bar adds an additional 800 square feet of heated living area. Upstairs, you will find an L shaped master suite with walk-in closet, sitting area, and master bath with shower, vanity and tub. There is also access to a 12' x 6' covered porch which overlooks the pool, spa and wooden surroundings. There are 4 additional nice size bedrooms on this level. The hall bath has been remodeled with a claw foot tub, shower and double vanity. The partially finished lower level is highlighted by a wine cellar with custom built storage for up to 325 bottles. The laundry and utility areas round out the lower level. The rear 46' x 12' covered deck is ideal for entertaining and has a stacked stone L shaped grill kitchen with granite countertops. Adjacent to the deck you will find a relaxing circular paved spa area with hot tub and fire pit. A few steps up a brick walkway brings you to an enticing 40' x 20' Fronheiser, heated in-ground pool and pump house. A great place for family pool parties or just unwinding on a hot summer day! There is also a detached 3 car garage and plenty of off street parking. The utilities have been updated to include a 2 year old high efficiency heater, a 1 year old hot water heater and a rain soft water softener. The 30 year old architectural shingle roof is only 7 years old. The property is enrolled in "Clean and Green" keeping your property taxes to an economical $6,317 per year. Hunters and nature lovers will appreciate the abundance of deer, turkey, coyote and fox in the area. This property is the perfect combination of country charm, modern conveniences, and a quiet and peaceful location.
