Butler Township Luzerne, PA Homes for Rent

Swaths of farmland and forest stretch throughout Butler Township, a sprawling community of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Tucked away in the Sugarloaf Valley, the township is just north of Hazleton and 17 miles southwest of Wilkes-Barre, the largest city in Luzerne County. Covering about 52 square miles of predominantly rural land, the township has smaller communities like the village of Drums and the Beech Mountain Lakes resort. Whether residents live on the resort grounds, among farmland or in a small village area, they enjoy a slow pace of life among the scenic mountains and forest while still having quick access across Pennsylvania on Interstates 81 and 80. Some houses sit on several acres, while others are in small subdivisions or along main roads. Popular styles include bi-levels, New Traditional homes with two-car garages and Colonial Revivals. A large portion of properties in Butler are in Beech Mountain Lakes, a gated resort community with A-frame cabins and contemporary homes on Green Mountain and around The Lake of the Four Seasons. Houses here have recently sold for between $240,000 and $560,000, and homes outside the resort area generally sell within the same range.
