Peaceful Setting with Views & Outbuildings Perched atop a quiet hill, surrounded by unbeatable distant mountain views and reveling in the serenity of a sprawling 6.52-acres is a gorgeous family home with undeniable opportunity. Thanks to three large outbuildings and a new in-law suite/apartment, this property has as much potential as it does luxury and style. Enjoy it all while conveniently just 5 minutes of Daniel Boone schools, Immaculate Conception Academy and High Point Baptist Academy — home of the world-famous High Point Christian Summer Camp. Venture up the long driveway to the beautiful covered front entry with a welcoming, 51 ft. wrap around front porch where you can catch every unbelievable sunset. Inside, you’re greeted by the dramatic, 2-story foyer with hardwood flooring that flows to the elegant dining room and main living areas. The renovated kitchen is a modern chef’s dream with massive, eat-in center island with electric cooktop, stunning quartz countertops with tile backsplash, oversized stainless steel farm sink, built-in wine fridge, dishwasher, undermount microwave, and double oven, tile flooring, and breakfast room area with slider doors to back deck. The incredible great room is sure to impress with a soaring cathedral, wood ceiling highlighted by exposed beams and an awesome floor-to-ceiling stone, gas fireplace flanked by large picture windows, plus wood floors, built-in speakers and another access to the large back deck. Enjoy the convenience of a first floor Master Suite with a huge walk-in closet, boasting built-ins and an island with granite top, and a private bath with double vanity, walk-in, glass shower, and Whirlpool tub with tile surround. On the second floor are three additional bedrooms with angled ceilings that share a full bath with tile flooring, tub/shower with glass slider door, and a double vanity. You’ll also find access to the brand new, 1-BR/1-BA apartment with a living room, kitchen with stainless steel appliances, electric cooking/range, and microwave, skylights, and separate electric and rear, exterior stairwell entry. The walkout lower level is a place to work hard, play hard with a spacious rec room, gym with rubber floor, metal ceiling, and wood walls, secret “safe” room, and French doors to backyard. In addition to the oversized, attached 2-car garage, three large outbuildings offer tons of storage and potential: a brand new insulated, finished pole barn with electric heat, 13ft. garage doors to fit an RV, cell phone antenna, and a second garage door to the backyard; a 3-bay insulated, finished detached garage with electric heat and brand new doors and openers; and a 2-story pole building for lawn equipment with storage above.

Need a place to put a horse? Close to French Creek and major roadways to Philly you will find 6.5 acres for the horse, along with a 2 story, 3 stall barn that is currently being used to store cars. Along with land that is wooded and mowed, there is also a stunning 5 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath home with wide plank flooring, finished basement, extra large kitchen with more cabinets then you would probably need, an oversized 2 car garage with 10 foot doors, and an additional 3 car garage out back! There is also an additional kitchen, plus another full bath and 6th bedroom you must see! If touring an almost 5000 square foot home tires you out, sit out front on the wrap around porch for a spell and enjoy the view! On cool nights you can sit in front of the stone fireplace or cool off in the above ground pool. Call today for additional information and a tour!
