Tucked away on a very quiet road in Leesport sits a newer built multi-level home sitting on 5.48 acres. Starting off with a beautiful view of large willow trees over a pond on the property. Or Look over at pasture #1 where you can keep anything from goats to cows. Walk in into the first level of a wide-open floor plan that's great for having family and friends over for a celebration. The first level includes a big storage room, a half bath, and a newly installed kitchenette. Walk upstairs and you will find a completely open-concept floor plan with a large living room, dining room, and kitchen. Not to mention the walk-in pantry. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and a view of the beautiful pond. The primary bedroom also has a full-sized bathroom with a double vanity and a whirlpool Jacuzzi tub with plenty of storage. On the other side of the home, there are 2 bedrooms and a large full bathroom. The need to do laundry is not a problem with this spacious laundry/mud room. Let's step outside to the backyard on the roof-covered deck overlooking the saltwater pool. Or walk over into the walk-in garden and enjoy planting some of your favorite vegetables without worrying about them getting eaten. Need eggs? Look no further included with the house is a walk-in chicken coop. Another view from the back deck will be the second and much larger pasture for horses or cows. Want to practice marksmanship? No problem with a 100-yard Shooting Range on the property as well. Two separate car Garages are included that were used to store vehicles and equipment, and one was used for butchering services. Plenty of acres and wildlife to enjoy including Deer, turkeys, and more. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy a slice of peacefulness while still being close to rt 61, 222, 183, and rt 78.
