About This Home
Welcome to your mountain paradise—where nature meets comfort and every day begins with mountain sunrise, bird songs and ends with a mountain sunset. Tucked away on the top of Summer Hill in Central-Eastern Pennsylvania, this quiet, private estate is uniquely hidden from roads, offering exceptional peace and serenity with breathtaking, unobstructed views of the Blue Ridge and Stony Mountains, surrounded by mostly unspoiled conservation land. Now spanning 4.5 acres of southern exposure, the property has been thoughtfully upgraded with new landscaping and added RV parking complete with electric hookup and accessible water. A warm and welcoming single-family residence sits at the front of the property, offering three bedrooms, a cozy living room with a toasty propane fireplace, and a kitchen access that opens to a bi-level engineered wood deck and paved patio designed to frame the views, not block them—no Bilco doors, no obstructive railing, just unspoiled beauty and a partially finished walk-out basement with laundry. The kitchen has been updated with stainless-steel appliances and quartz countertops, while the formal dining room offers flexibility as a bonus room or office. The attached two-car garage is partially finished, with one side ready for first-floor laundry or a dog wash station. Outside, the land has already been developed and matured—no need for bulldozers or engineering plans—offering usable flat areas perfect for motorbikes, ATVs, e-bikes, or even horses, and plenty of space to build a barn or expand. Hidden trails run through and beyond the property with direct visibility of the Appalachian Trail, which lies just beyond the southern horizon—We’ve even horseback ridden right onto it. This is a place where you can hike, hunt, garden, or simply breathe. Thousands of sunflowers and marigolds were planted this year alone, and the garden produces everything from pumpkins, corn, carrots, and potatoes to strawberries, garlic, onions, tomatoes, and peppers—though watermelons still elude us. From morning meditation by the frog pond in the woods to porch-sitting under the stars, this is a lifestyle that can’t be replicated. You’ll never flood here, never feel overlooked, and never grow tired of the view. The deck was designed as a step down with no railing in your eye line so that you can sit back and soak in uninterrupted mountain vistas—no windmills, no power lines, just nature at its best. Whether you dream of building a bank barn, hosting guests with ease, giving yourself room to roam, or simply living in peace and privacy, this property delivers. Come walk the land, feel the breeze, and see the vision. This isn’t imagination—it’s the dream, already built. Schedule your private showing and experience the natural beauty and unmatched tranquility of this one-of-a-kind mountain retreat.
