About This Home
As of November 2020Escape the fast pace to a slower lifestyle in this turnkey farmette located in the picturesque Cumberland Valley of Franklin County, PA. This quiet rural, farmette is located just minutes from historic Mercersburg, Pennsylvania. Experience the great views of the entire Cumberland Valley from this charming home site. You can watch the sunrise over the Blue Ridge Mountains to the east and set behind the Tuscarora Mountain to the west. Although a rural setting, it is situated so friends and family can quickly visit when desired. Only 32 miles from the PA Turnpike, you can travel east to Philadelphia or west to Pittsburgh in 3 hours each. If traveling north or south, it is only 19 miles to Interstate 81 so you can travel north to Harrisburg in 52 minutes or south to Baltimore MD or Washington, DC in 1 hour and 45 minutes. The Whitetail Ski Resort is only 7 miles away. This six acre site is immediately ready for horses or any other livestock you prefer. The fields are completely fenced with high tensile wire and subdivided into paddocks to allow for rotational grazing and hay production if desired. Pastures and barn yard are improved with frost proof waterers. The barn and a number of out buildings and sheds provide more than sufficient indoor storage for tractors, attachments, implements, and hay storage. One building was used for chickens, turkeys and other poultry and it could be used again with minor changes. Most outbuildings are improved with concrete floors and large doors for multiple uses. A detached 2 car garage and attached shop provides year round protection for cars, trucks, etc. Floors are all concrete. Side walls and ceilings are insulated to provide both heat from a fuel oil and wood furnace and cooling from air conditioning so vehicles are protected and it provides comfort for you, on even the most hot and humid days. Enjoy fresh fruits and vegetables from the garden and fruit trees on site. Another area has raised vegetable and/or flower beds. All these amenities are available in addition to a 3 bedroom, 2 full bath house so you can enjoy a slower pace and quality of life here in Franklin County. All this is available for ONLY $399,900!!
