About This Home
Welcome to a truly exceptional 1.69-acre residential retreat, a property where creativity, environmental stewardship, and thoughtful design come together. This 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence has been transformed into a nationally recognized model of sustainable living and landscape integration. Designated as a Sustainable Sites Initiative (SITES) demonstration property. The only private residence of its kind in Pennsylvania. It embraces the natural topography and elevates it into a functional and beautiful living ecosystem. Inside, the home’s living spaces maintain a strong connection to the outdoors. You will enjoy the bright kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, double sinks, beautiful cabinetry, granite countertops with an extended workspace, recessed lighting, and an exposed stone wall with storage bench. The lovely tiled flooring continues into the dining room, where recessed lighting, wall sconces, and wood service shelving create a warm and inviting setting perfect for entertaining. There are beautiful hardwood floors throughout much of the home. The bright family room offers a cozy fireplace, ceiling fan, and skylights, an ideal spot to unwind on chilly evenings with a hot beverage and a great book. Or relax in the large sunroom, featuring tiled flooring, expansive windows, a cathedral ceiling, and ceiling fan a true four-season space to enjoy the scenery.

Two additional bedrooms are comfortably sized with ceiling fans, and the updated second bath features beautiful tile. Another versatile living area offers serene views, skylights, and works perfectly as a home office or den. A large first-floor laundry room adds convenience with extra storage. Outdoors, every feature has a purpose: to support the land, enhance the experience of outdoor living, and create harmony between structure and nature. Smart grading and terracing form inviting garden “rooms,” each with its own seasonal interest. The landscape showcases a curated mix of native meadows, woodlands, rain gardens, terraced planting beds, holding ponds, and stone-lined swales. Sculptural elements, artful pathways, and thoughtfully designed water features add visual interest and creativity throughout the grounds. Specialty structures elevate the property’s functionality and charm: Garden studio/yoga hut for reflection, wellness, or artistry. Potting shed constructed from reclaimed materials. Culinary garden areas for hands-on growing. Meditation labyrinth and serene outdoor sanctuaries Throughout the year, this environment shifts and evolves from vibrant spring emergence to sculptural winter forms delivering an immersive, ever-changing natural experience. This residence shows how sustainable design can also be warm, artistic, and deeply livable, a rare opportunity to enjoy intentional living where environmental innovation and everyday comfort meet. A living canvas, thoughtfully shaped over time and ready for its next steward to continue its unique story. Certain exterior photos are from a prior season and are shown to illustrate the property's full potential.
